Full job description
At our 100% employee-owned engineering firm, you'll actually own a piece of every project you help deliver. We're looking for a Senior Professional Civil Engineer who loves variety—from renewable energy sites to food processing facilities, academic campuses to municipal infrastructure.
You'll work out of our Downers Grove, Illinois office, leading project teams, mentor junior engineers, and work directly with clients on everything from preliminary design through construction. One day you might be tackling stormwater management, the next you're designing utility infrastructure or managing a corporate campus development.
We follow a "seller-doer" approach, which means you'll collaborate with our Market Managers to build client relationships while focusing on what you do best—great engineering and project leadership. No pressure to be a full-time salesperson, just authentic client partnerships that grow naturally from solid work.
Ready to join a team where your success directly impacts your future? Let's talk.
Hybrid Work Environment: Tuesday - Thursday in office | Monday & Friday WFH
