• Build and maintain strong client relationships while collaborating with architects, contractors, and internal teams.
• Mentor and train early‑career engineers, fostering technical growth and leadership development.
• Support business development initiatives and contribute to strategic growth.

• Travel for site visits may occur 2‑3 days per month.
• Annual bonuses typically range from 5‑10% of base salary.
• Flexible scheduling options (e.g., 4.5‑day workweek).
• Comprehensive benefits: 100% employer‑paid medical coverage for employees, significant family coverage, dental, vision, disability, life insurance, PTO, 401(k) match, and paid parental leave.
