Job description

Bring clarity to great engineering.

Find a place where precision, craftsmanship, and attention to detail are genuinely valued.

Are you the kind of person who spots a misplaced comma from across the room? Are you the one friends and coworkers hand their emails to before hitting send?

Your attention to detail will help protect the quality of our work and the reputation we’ve built for over fifty years. As a Technical Editor, you’ll work alongside engineers and project managers who value careful editing because they know it strengthens every proposal, report, manual, and technical document that leaves our office.

This is meaningful work for someone who enjoys learning new technical subjects, takes pride in precision, and wants to be part of a collaborative team where quality matters. You’ll become a trusted partner across multiple engineering disciplines, helping ensure every document reflects the same level of professionalism as the work behind it.

As an employee-owned firm, we believe in recognizing people who make a lasting impact. Along with competitive benefits, including group health insurance, paid holidays and PTO, a 401(k), company-paid life insurance, long-term disability, and discretionary bonuses, you’ll join a team that values high-quality work, supports one another, and takes pride in doing things right.

What You’ll Bring

• Bachelor’s degree in English, an applicable certificate, or equivalent professional experience


• Strong command of grammar, punctuation, and sentence structure


• Meticulous attention to detail and the ability to spot inconsistencies others miss


• Advanced Microsoft Word skills and the ability to follow established style guidelines


• Excellent organizational skills and the ability to manage multiple assignments and changing priorities


• Willingness to work full time, in person, in Redding, California
