The posting

We are seeking an experienced Senior Project Engineer with strong expertise in deep foundations and heavy civil infrastructure. This hybrid role combines estimating responsibilities with hands-on project execution support, providing involvement from the bid phase through final project delivery.

Projects typically include small- to mid-sized civil assignments such as deep foundations (pile and shoring systems), transportation improvements, culverts, light rail components, small bridges, and select industrial scopes. Most projects are short-term and may require periodic travel to remote job sites for coordination and oversight.

Key Responsibilities

  • Analyze drawings, specifications, and geotechnical reports to define scope and prepare competitive cost estimates
  • Perform detailed quantity take-offs and develop comprehensive labor, equipment, and material cost analyses
  • Maintain up-to-date vendor pricing and accurate cost documentation
  • Participate in pre-bid meetings and contribute to proposal preparation
  • Support field operations with RFIs, submittals, change orders, and document control
  • Coordinate subcontractors and assist with contract administration and claims management
  • Track and monitor project costs on a weekly basis using project management and accounting systems
  • Evaluate design alternatives and recommend cost-effective engineering solutions
  • Assist with project start-up documentation and help maintain strong contractor performance ratings

Required Qualifications

  • Bachelor's degree in Civil Engineering or Construction Management
  • 5–7 years of experience in heavy civil construction, including deep foundations, pile and shoring, heavy highway, light rail, or industrial projects
  • Proven experience as a Project Engineer supporting civil infrastructure or deep foundation work
  • Strong understanding of field construction practices and estimating principles
  • Proficiency in estimating, scheduling, and project management software platforms
  • Solid mathematical and analytical skills (geometry, ratios, take-offs, and cost calculations)
  • Experience collaborating with regulatory agencies, clients, subcontractors, and executive leadership

Preferred Experience

  • Direct hands-on experience with deep foundation systems
  • Background in cost engineering within competitive bid environments
  • Ability and willingness to travel as project needs require

Required Skill Sets

  • Deep Foundations & Shoring Systems
  • Heavy Civil Estimating & Cost Control
  • Subcontractor Coordination & Project Documentation
  • Contract Administration & Change Management

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.
