What we require:
- Licensure: Active P.E. license.
- Education: B.S. in Civil Engineering from an ABET-accredited institution.
- Experience: 15+ years of hands-on experience in land development and/or extensive site/civil/heavy construction project management; safety requirements and issues on construction sites; design experience and a thorough working knowledge of contracts, safety, construction means & methods, scheduling, estimating, subcontractor management, & quality control.
- Additional Experience a Plus:
- Skills: Excellent technical and analytical skills; strong written and verbal communication skills.
- Ability: You can safely climb/navigate ladders, roofs, scaffolding, etc. for inspection activities.

Work Style:
Approximately 20% of the role is travel for training, inspections, and providing sworn testimony on your investigative findings at a deposition or trial. The remainder is investigation, analysis, and report writing, working independently and as part of a collaborative team. Our experts offer and receive support/mentoring in a firm with over 100 scientists, engineers, and other professionals and manage a portfolio of 50-70 projects/clients.
