As demand accelerates, they are adding a hands-on Project Engineer who can bridge elegant design with field-ready constructability while growing into a future technical leader.

How You’ll Make an Impact

• Produce complete design packages (plans, single-line diagrams, civil details, demolition notes, equipment schedules) that guide design-build installations from concept through close-out.
• Prepare technical submittals, product data sheets, O&M manuals, and installation guides that keep owner reps and vendors aligned.
• Partner with project managers and superintendents to solve on-site challenges quickly, issuing redlines and as-built drawings that reflect real-world conditions.
• Model vehicle-impact scenarios and other threat paths to validate security performance before a shovel hits the ground.
• Investigate job sites to capture measurements, soil conditions, and utility information that feed accurate estimates and material take-offs.
• Support R&D efforts on next-generation barrier and gate products, including planning and evaluating full-scale crash tests.
• Coordinate with suppliers to confirm specifications and delivery timelines, ensuring critical materials arrive on schedule.

What You Bring

• 2+ years in civil, structural, or construction-oriented engineering or drafting roles.
• Proficiency in AutoCAD (or similar CAD) and the Microsoft Office suite; experience with Procore or comparable project-management software is a plus.
• Bachelor’s degree in Engineering, Engineering Technology, or closely related discipline.
• Clear, concise written and verbal communication skills and a knack for distilling complex technical information.
• Eligibility to work in the United States without sponsorship.

Compensation & Benefits

• Competitive annual salary, commensurate with experience.
• 401(k) with 4 percent company match, comprehensive medical/dental/vision coverage, paid holidays and PTO.
• Profit-sharing potential plus occasional team events and local sports perks.
