Mid Level

This is a senior technical leadership role.

We are seeking a civil, structural, or architectural engineer with consulting experience in restoration, forensic engineering, and/or building enclosure to lead engineering operations and client delivery.

You are a technically credible engineer who:

Has led engineering teams in a consulting environment
Enjoys working directly with clients, projects, and people
Understands utilization, revenue, and delivery, not just design
Thrives in an employee-owned, entrepreneurial culture

Experience leading teams and overseeing technical deliverables
Ability to read, review, and interpret drawings and reports

Preferred

PE or AIA license

This Role Is NOT For

Mechanical, electrical, chemical, geotechnical, or trades-based engineers
Construction-only project managers or general contractors
Operations executives without technical engineering credentials
Policy, government affairs, or non-technical leadership backgrounds

What You’ll Do

Lead and mentor engineers, consultants, and project managers
Act as PM on select complex projects while maintaining utilization expectations
Oversee project delivery, schedules, quality, and consistency of work product
Partner with business development on proposals and technical input
Own department-level metrics: utilization, backlog, revenue, and margins
Maintain high-touch client relationships on complex consulting engagements
Contribute to strategic planning, staffing, and annual goals

Why Join
