Job description

In 2023, we changed our name from Anderson Engineering, Inc. to OWN, Inc. to be more reflective of our team and the mindset that makes us go. While the name may be new, the links to the past have led us to what we are today: a community of talented employee-owners driven by mutual success.

Our talented team builds futures while helping shape the built environment across the country from our offices in Missouri, Kansas, Arkansas, and Florida.

No matter the project or scope, our clients enjoy problem-solving and service that goes beyond the expected.

• Collaborating with project teams to design traffic control devices, signage, pavement markings, and signal systems for roads, intersections, and other transportation networks.
• Manage and oversee traffic engineering projects from concept to completion, ensuring they are completed on time and within budget.
• Perform traffic impact studies, evaluate transportation models, and conduct traffic flow analyses to identify areas of congestion or safety concerns.
• Collect and analyze data on traffic volume, speed, and accident reports to develop solutions for improving traffic flow and reducing accidents.
• Conduct safety studies, analyze accident reports, and recommend safety improvements like pedestrian crossings, roundabouts, or traffic calming measures.
• Develop and implement timing plans for traffic signals to improve efficiency and minimize delays.
• Generating detailed reports and conducting studies to assess project feasibility, environmental impacts, and compliance with regulations.
• Ensure that all designs and proposals comply with local, state, and federal regulations, including environmental standards.
• Mentor and support fellow team members, fostering a collaborative environment where knowledge sharing and professional growth are valued.
• Champion OWN's five guiding principles by establishing a culture of ownership, responsiveness, mutual success, and fun.

Qualifications:

• B.S. in Civil Engineering, Transportation Engineering, or related field from ABET accredited program.
• Active or actively pursuing PE and/or PTOE license preferred.

• Experience with traffic analysis software (e.g., Synchro, HCS, VISSIM, SIDRA, AutoCAD).

• 6+ years of experience in traffic and transportation engineering.

3. Flexibility. The freedom to be a professional. The freedom to be a person.

4. ESOP. Our Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP) is owned 100% by employees - equitably, a fact most employee-owned firms can't claim.
