At Houston Engineering, we believe in fostering the growth and development of the next generation of engineers through hands-on mentorship. Our internships provide valuable learning experiences, and many of our interns have continued their careers with us post-graduation, contributing to meaningful local projects.

A Civil Engineer Intern with Houston Engineering Inc. (HEI) will spend time in the field working on outdoor construction phase activities as well as a variety of in-office projects assisting engineers.

Job Description

The Transportation Design Specialist supports the planning and design of transportation infrastructure projects for state and local agencies. This experienced technical role develops high-quality design plans and digital models using MicroStation and OpenRoads Designer (ORD), applies applicable roadway design standards, and serves as a mentor and trainer to strengthen transportation design capabilities across HEI.

Essential Functions

  • Prepare preliminary and final design plans for urban and rural roadway, highway, intersection, bridge approach, pedestrian, and related transportation improvement projects.
  • Develop and maintain roadway geometry, alignments, profiles, corridors, cross sections, terrain models, drainage components, quantities, and plan sheets using MicroStation and OpenRoads Designer (ORD).
  • Apply applicable Department of Transportation and local agency design standards, specifications, file structures, workspace requirements, and electronic delivery procedures.
  • Coordinate with engineers, project managers, survey staff, and other technical team members to translate survey, design, and engineering information into accurate and complete project deliverables.
  • Perform technical drafting appropriate to the position, and assist with the preparation of opinions of probable construction cost, quantities, specifications, and supporting documentation.
  • Conduct quality control reviews of models, drawings, plan sets, and related deliverables for accuracy, completeness, consistency, and compliance with project requirements.
  • Identify design, production, and software issues; recommend practical solutions; and help establish efficient and consistent transportation design workflows.
  • Serve as a technical resource for MicroStation and ORD, including troubleshooting design and production questions and sharing best practices across project teams.
  • While not required, there are opportunities to develop and deliver formal and informal training, reference materials, standards, and workflow guidance for employees with varying levels of MicroStation and ORD experience.
  • Assist project teams with workload coordination and help provide redundancy for key transportation design and plan-production functions.
  • Participate in project meetings and communicate effectively regarding design status, technical needs, priorities, schedules, and deliverables.
  • Perform other duties and responsibilities as assigned.

  • Advanced proficiency with MicroStation and OpenRoads Designer (ORD) required.
  • Demonstrated knowledge of roadway design and plan-production practices, including development of alignments, profiles, corridors, cross sections, quantities, and construction plan sets.
