Since 1978, we’ve supported mission-driven organizations in designing systems and environments that advance society and improve lives. Today, with more than 900 professionals across 22 offices, we help shape the future of healthcare, science and technology, energy, education, and other vital sectors.

From elevating patient care in Mayo Clinic’s world-class hospitals to enabling discovery in high-containment laboratories for U.S. agencies and driving environmental progress with Microsoft’s renowned Thermal Energy Center, our work enriches the human experience, safeguards the environment, and pushes the boundaries of possibility.

AEI consistently earns national recognition from leading industry publications, including Building Design Construction, Engineering News-Record, and Consulting-Specifying Engineer, with distinctions such as being named the #1 Laboratory Engineering Firm in the nation and receiving multiple Best of the Best Project awards, underscoring the lasting legacy of our work.

Why we need you:

In this role, you will have the opportunity to approach engineering in unconventional ways: testing the installations rather than designing them.

• Detail oriented and able to follow logical flows.
• Excellent organization and time management skills.

• Effective working individually and within team environments

When you work here, you can expect:

• A flexible, collaborative environment where your well-being matters—because your best work happens when you’re supported.
• Real opportunities to grow—through mentorship, professional development programs, and exposure to high-impact projects across disciplines.
• To collaborate with inspiring teammates who challenge the status quo, foster innovation, and pave the way for future leaders.
• A benefits package that offers health, dental, vision, and retirement, a performance-based year-end bonus, and thoughtful perks tailored to your needs—whether that’s a flexible work environment, wellness resources, or community-focused initiatives, we’ll continue to invest in.
