Engineering Designers gain hands-on experience throughout the planning, design, and construction phases of projects while developing the technical and professional skills needed to advance within the engineering profession.

Typical responsibilities may include:

  • Engineering Design: Assist with the development of engineering designs, construction plans, specifications, quantities, and cost estimates.

  • Project Coordination: Work collaboratively with project managers, engineers, designers, clients, agencies, and other members of multidisciplinary project teams.
  • Field Work: Participate in data collection, site visits, construction observation, inspections, and other field activities as appropriate for the project and technical group.
  • Construction Support: Assist with construction documentation, contract administration, record drawings, and project closeout activities.
  • Professional Development: Develop technical expertise through hands-on project experience, mentoring, training, and involvement in professional and community organizations.

Requirements

We are primarily interested in recent graduates and early-career professionals who want to learn, grow, and become long-term contributors to RPA. Desired qualifications include:

  • Bachelor's degree in Civil Engineering, Civil Engineering Technology, or a related engineering field.
  • Engineering Intern (EI) certification, or the ability to obtain certification within six months of employment.
  • 0–4 years of engineering, design, construction, internship, or related experience.
  • Fundamental understanding of engineering principles and design and construction practices.
  • Strong interpersonal, organizational, and communication skills.
  • Attention to detail and a willingness to learn new technical skills.
  • Ability to work effectively both independently and as part of a project team.
  • Willingness to travel and perform field work when required by project assignments.
  • A positive attitude and commitment to being an active participant in RPA's employee-owned culture and alignment with our Core Values.

Applicants are encouraged to identify their preferred RPA office location(s) and areas of technical interest as part of the application process. Placement will depend on the candidate's interests and qualifications as well as current opportunities and staffing needs within RPA.

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.
