About the Position

Our 2027 Internship Program offers a 10-week immersive experience, providing in-depth training in Oracle Primavera P6 scheduling, plan and contract reviews, as well as practical field engineering tasks, including structural inspections of California High-Speed Rail (CA HSR) bridges under construction. As a Luster Intern, you will gain hands-on experience in key project delivery functions such as quantity take-offs, quality control inspections, and change order tracking. Intern Program participants include Luster (Employer of Interns), AECOM/Fluor JV (Engineering Firms that Luster works with on the Project), and California High Speed Rail Authority (Client of AECOM/Fluor JV).

We are hiring two Interns majoring in Civil Engineering or Construction Management to join our team. Interns will collaborate closely with experienced Luster Engineers on the CA HSR Program and have the opportunity to engage with representatives from Luster, AECOM/Fluor, and CA HSR. These engagements may include breakfast or lunch meetings, social events, and scheduled meetings, providing interns with valuable insights into the program’s organization and management. Interns will actively engage in team meetings, project site visits, safety training, and special project events. Every effort will be made to fully integrate Interns as valued members of the infrastructure delivery team. This internship provides a unique opportunity to acquire valuable industry experience and develop essential skills in a dynamic, supportive environment.

As one of our Field/Office Engineer Interns, you will develop critical skills in construction management by learning how our team oversees contractor activities related to cost, schedule, and budget. You will gain hands-on experience in essential project management areas such as scheduling, estimating, and monitoring construction progress. This role offers a balanced combination of fieldwork and office tasks, allowing you to track and manage construction activities effectively.

Your responsibilities will include conducting design reviews for field construction, performing quantity estimations, carrying out field inspections, and assessing schedules for potential delays. Additionally, you will participate in executive and team meetings, providing you with valuable insight into the complex, dynamic elements that drive successful project delivery.

Key Responsibilities

  • Project Oversight & Monitoring: Shadow and support our Project Manager in applying strategies and tools for verifying design and construction processes. You’ll assist in tracking, measuring, and reporting on essential project metrics like scope, quality, risk, schedule, and cost.
  • Contractor Coordination: Learn about the methods and techniques our construction management team uses to oversee contractor activities, focusing on budget, schedule, and cost controls.
  • Scope Development & Estimation: Contribute to the development of scope of work and level of effort assessments, and gain exposure to the critical aspects of scheduling and estimating in project management.
  • Field & Office Work: Your responsibilities will include both on-site fieldwork (transportation with the Luster Intern Mentor) and office-based tasks related to tracking and managing construction activities, giving you a well-rounded view of project management.
  • Design & Construction Review: Take part in design reviews, quantity estimations, field inspections, and schedule evaluations. You’ll also analyze potential delay impacts and learn how to address them.
  • Executive Exposure: Attend executive meetings and participate in team discussions, project site walks, safety training, and special events to gain a comprehensive understanding of how large infrastructure projects are managed.

Minimum Qualifications

  • The program is open to undergraduate students (Junior or Senior level) enrolled in Civil Engineering or Construction Management, or a related major at an accredited four-year university in California, such as California State University, Fresno (‘Fresno State’) or University of California, Merced (‘UC Merced’). Eligible applicants should have completed at least two years of coursework toward their degree. The program is particularly well-suited for Juniors and Seniors who have made significant progress in completing their core degree requirements.
  • Proficiency in Microsoft Office Suite (e.g., Word, Excel, PowerPoint).
  • Willingness to travel to field sites as needed.

What’s In It for You

  • Hands-On Experience: Gain practical exposure to a major infrastructure project with the CA HSR, working directly on real-world construction management activities.
  • Skill Building: Develop essential skills in project management, including scheduling, estimating, design review, and field inspection, while learning how to track key project metrics like quality, risk, and cost.
  • Professional Mentorship: Work side-by-side with an experienced Project Manager who will guide you through the complexities of managing large-scale construction projects, offering insights and industry knowledge.
  • Diverse Learning Opportunities: Balance your time between fieldwork and office tasks, giving you a well-rounded experience that covers both on-the-ground construction activities and the strategic aspects of project oversight.
  • Networking and Exposure: Attend executive and team meetings, participate in project site walks, and join safety training and special events, providing you with networking opportunities and a deeper understanding of project delivery.
  • Career Preparation: This internship offers a solid foundation for your future career, enhancing your resume with hands-on experience in one of the nation’s most ambitious rail projects.
  • Impactful Work Experience: Be part of a transformative project that’s shaping the future of transportation in California, giving you a chance to make a real impact and contribute to the success of a high-profile public infrastructure initiative.
