Are you an experienced civil engineer who thrives on leading roadway and highway projects, and doing it with a team that values your expertise, your life outside of work, and your voice at the table?
This is an opportunity to step into a high-impact, long-term role where you’ll inherit a strong, established team, lead meaningful public infrastructure projects, and have the freedom to shape your career toward leadership, business development, or technical mastery.
If you want to be part of a culture where your contributions matter, where overtime is rare, and where leadership listens, please read on!
Why This Role?
Work/Life Balance You Can Count On
– Projects are scoped realistically, and overtime is avoided whenever possible. If it’s not sustainable, we don’t take it on.

Established Team & Client Base
– You’ll step into a stable, collaborative team with repeat clients and ongoing DOT/county roadway projects, no building from scratch required (unless you want to grow the team).

– This isn’t a dead-end role. You can grow into higher leadership positions, become a shareholder, and help guide the direction of the public works division.
Impact Without Bureaucracy
– Large enough to have resources, small enough that your ideas get heard. You’ll have direct access to decision-makers and the freedom to innovate.
Culture People Come Back To
– We have a strong history of employees returning after working elsewhere. Once you experience the culture, you understand why.

Competitive base salary ($110k-$150k+), performance bonuses, profit sharing, and sign-on bonus for the right candidate.
Retirement & Benefits:
401(k) with match, annual profit sharing, and comprehensive health/dental/vision.
