Roadway Design Engineer

Join a forward-thinking organization dedicated to engineering excellence and sustainable infrastructure. We are a team of collaborative professionals who thrive on solving complex challenges and delivering projects that make a tangible difference. Our culture supports continuous learning and professional growth, empowering our engineers to lead the industry.

Key Responsibilities

- Spearhead the geometric design of roadway projects, developing precise horizontal and vertical alignments using industry-leading software like OpenRoads and Civil 3D.

- Engineer complex intersections and multi-level interchanges, focusing on traffic flow optimization, multimodal access, and enhanced safety protocols.

- Develop comprehensive pavement designs and rehabilitation strategies for a range of roadway classifications, from local streets to major interstate highways.

- Prepare detailed plan and profile sheets, typical sections, and cross-sections that serve as the blueprint for construction activities.

- Conduct thorough earthwork analysis and calculate material quantities, ensuring project efficiency and cost-effectiveness.

- Ensure unwavering compliance with all governing design standards, especially the AASHTO Green Book and specific state Department of Transportation (DOT) manuals.

- Design crucial roadside safety features, including barrier systems, clear zones, and crash cushions, to protect the traveling public.

- Develop clear and logical construction staging and traffic control plans to minimize disruption during project execution.

- Collaborate with multidisciplinary teams (including structural, environmental, and drainage engineers) to deliver integrated and resilient infrastructure solutions.

Essential Qualifications & Skills

- A Bachelor's degree in Civil Engineering or a closely related field.

- Professional Engineer (PE) license in at least one U.S. state is strongly preferred, or the ability to obtain one.

- A minimum of 5 years of progressive experience centered on roadway and highway design within A/E consulting, government, or a related sector.

- High proficiency with at least one of the primary design software suites: Bentley (MicroStation, OpenRoads, InRoads, Geopak) or Autodesk (AutoCAD Civil 3D).

- Demonstrated expertise in the principles of geometric design, including sight distance, superelevation, and alignment criteria.

- Profound understanding of pavement design methodologies, materials, and lifecycle analysis.

- Competency in performing earthwork calculations and developing mass haul diagrams.

- In-depth knowledge of traffic safety principles and the application of the Highway Safety Manual (HSM).

- Experience developing construction phasing plans and ensuring compliance with Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) requirements for public rights-of-way.
