Position Summary

We are seeking a General Superintendent with proven expertise in cast‑in‑place segmental bridge construction to lead field execution on complex bridge projects. This role is critical to delivering safe, high quality, and on‑schedule work for segmental bridge systems, including balanced cantilever and span‑by‑span construction.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead day‑to‑day field operations for cast‑in‑place segmental bridge construction, including travelers, form systems, and segment pours.
• Execute work plans for segmental sequencing, stressing operations, and geometry control.
• Coordinate closely with engineering, survey, and project management teams to maintain alignment, camber, and tolerances.
• Oversee installation of post‑tensioning systems, rebar, embeds, and formwork systems specific to segmental construction.
• Manage concrete placement operations, including cycle times, curing, and quality control for segment pours.
• Ensure compliance with project specifications, contract requirements, and governing standards (e.g., DOT, AASHTO).
• Identify and resolve field issues related to geometry control, segment alignment, and construction tolerances.
• Drive safety, productivity, and quality through proactive field leadership and planning.

Qualifications

• Minimum 10 years of experience in heavy civil construction, with direct experience in cast‑in‑place segmental bridge construction.
• Strong understanding of segmental construction methods (balanced cantilever, travelers, post‑tensioning systems).
• Experience managing geometry control, survey coordination, and camber adjustments.
• Proven ability to lead crews and deliver complex bridge work safely and efficiently.
• Ability to read and interpret plans, specifications, and segmental shop drawings.
• Strong communication and leadership skills.

What We’re Looking For

A hands‑on, self‑perform leader who understands the complexity of segmental bridge construction and knows how to build the work not just manage it. This individual is willing to teach, mentor, and develop crews, and thrives in union, non‑union, and mixed workforce environments. We need someone who can step into a highly technical operation, take ownership, and drive execution with precision, accountability, and discipline hitting the ground running on day one.
