Our Pennsylvania Civil infrastructure team is on an accelerated growth track in 2026, and we are looking to bring strong engineers into the group. We are respected by our clients as an organization with strong technical skills, and solid project delivery and performance.

We expect you to identify new opportunities with your current contacts in the region and help grow the business.

When we compete as a group against the competition, we thrive on that burst of creative energy that propels us past obstacles. We're looking for dynamic managers who want to lead a first-place team. In our diverse workplace, everyone has an equal shot and is accepted and respected for who they are and what they do to help put us in the lead. If that competitive spirit invigorates your management style, we want to hear from you.
