Talent Acquisition Specialist @ DropUp | Global Talent Acquisition | 5+ years as a Luxury Sales Professional

A leading architecture and engineering firm is seeking a Licensed Civil Engineer to join their team in Trevose, PA. This high-impact role is ideal for a technically skilled, field-savvy professional with at least 5 years of experience in the renovation and rehabilitation of existing buildings, especially in residential and low-rise commercial construction.

The ideal candidate will have hands-on experience with retail centers, recreational facilities, park structures, playgrounds, or similar low-rise environments, along with strong communication abilities and a proactive approach to fieldwork and design.

Why This Role Stands Out

• National Reach, Personal Growth: With rapid expansion comes accelerated career advancement. Customized growth paths are the standard—not the exception.
• Promotion from Within: Leadership opportunities are available to those who demonstrate initiative and excellence.
• Mentorship Culture: Team members work alongside experienced professionals dedicated to developing emerging talent.
• Specialized Project Mix: The firm tackles complex, high-impact projects—from forensic investigations to building envelope rehabilitation—often avoided by others.

This role combines civil design expertise, field assessment, and direct client interaction:

Project & Technical Leadership

• Lead and manage engineering projects from kickoff through closeout.
• Conduct detailed site inspections, take measurements, and perform forensic evaluations to assess existing conditions and diagnose failures.
• Develop and review design drawings, construction documents, technical specifications, and contractor submittals.
• Respond to RFIs, evaluate contractor applications, and assist during the construction phase.
• Coordinate with internal engineering teams across disciplines to ensure integrated project delivery.

Client & Team Coordination

• Serve as a key point of contact for property owners, contractors, and consultants.
• Participate in meetings, presentations, and site visits, communicating findings and recommendations clearly.
• Provide mentorship and technical guidance to junior team members when applicable.

Required Qualifications

• Licensed Professional Engineer (PE) in Civil Engineering.
• Minimum 5 years of experience with residential, multi-family, or low-rise commercial building projects.
• Strong background in existing building renovation, rehabilitation, or forensic assessment.
• Experience with retail, recreational, or community-use structures such as playgrounds or parks.
• Bachelor's degree in Civil Engineering.
• Proficiency in AutoCAD, Revit, or related design software.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
• Valid U.S. driver’s license and willingness to travel to project sites.
• OSHA-10 Certification (preferred).
• Familiarity with AIA contract documents.
• Confidence in client-facing roles with a high degree of autonomy.
