Job description

Some technical roles are defined by the drawings you produce. Others are defined by how much the people around you trust your work.

An established engineering and surveying firm is seeking an experienced Senior Survey Designer to support a diverse mix of residential, commercial, industrial, municipal, and transportation projects.

This is a role for someone who has developed a strong foundation in survey drafting and is ready for greater ownership of their work. You’ll take field information, construction documents, markups, and project direction and turn them into accurate, thoughtful deliverables that help move projects forward.

You’ll be counted on to recognize issues before they become problems, communicate effectively with project managers and surveyors, and help develop others around you. For someone who enjoys the detail and precision of survey work but also wants their experience and judgement to matter, this could be an ideal next step.

Is This You?

The right person for this opportunity takes pride in getting the details right and understands how their work connects to the larger project. You’re comfortable working independently, but you don’t operate in a silo. You know when to ask questions, when to raise a concern, and when you have enough information to keep moving.

You may be drawn to this role if you enjoy solving technical problems, working across different types of projects, and being someone others can rely on.

A Few Things Worth Knowing

• The firm works across residential, commercial, industrial, municipal, and transportation-related projects
• You'll work closely with Supervisors, Project Managers, and other technical professionals from field information through completed survey documents and exhibits
• Projects may include topographical surveys, certificates of survey, easement exhibits, construction layout drawings, staking data, and other survey deliverables
• Advanced AutoCAD Civil 3D capability is important, but technical judgement and accuracy matter just as much

Worth Exploring?

The right opportunity rarely comes from simply searching for one, it often starts with a conversation that creates space to consider what could be next.

If this opportunity aligns with the kind of technical challenges and responsibility that energize you, we would welcome the opportunity to connect.
