Build Your Future at AMT

A. Morton Thomas and Associates, Inc. (AMT), an employee-owned engineering consulting firm, is seeking a motivated Virginia Licensed Surveyor (LS) to join our growing Survey practice in Richmond or Northern Virginia.

This opportunity is designed for a survey professional who is ready to take the next step in their career.

As an employee-owned company, AMT invests in its people through mentorship, professional development, leadership opportunities, and a collaborative culture that values teamwork, client service, and work-life balance. We are looking for a future leader who wants to make a meaningful impact on our projects, clients, teams, and communities. Surveyors who have recently obtained their Virginia Licensed Surveyor credential are encouraged to apply.
