Why This Is a Great Opportunity

  • Take ownership of meaningful municipal water and infrastructure projects that directly impact local communities.
  • Work closely with engineers, contractors, and municipal clients from construction kickoff through project closeout.
  • Join a collaborative engineering environment where your field and construction expertise will have real influence.
  • Enjoy performance bonuses plus employer-paid health, dental, vision, disability, and life insurance.
  • Receive a company vehicle and company cell phone for job-related responsibilities.
  • Build your career while managing visible, technically interesting civil infrastructure projects.

Location: Asheville, NC. This is primarily an on-site and field-based opportunity, with in-person work preferred because of the hands-on nature of construction administration and project site responsibilities.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
