Design Engineer

Carpenter Marty Transportation is an interdisciplinary civil engineering firm that offers an unsurpassed range of expertise to streamline transportation projects and improve design value for clients and project partners. We have a proven track record of providing clients with the highest quality plans, studies, and superior customer service. Our expertise lies in bridge, roadway, and traffic engineering; project management; public involvement; survey; right-of-way design services; and operational analysis.

Position Purpose: As a team member you will be working on the production of construction documents for our public and private clients. This position will focus primarily on design work associated with private development projects including public infrastructure and utility design and site civil design. It will also include assisting on other public projects as needed. You will be utilizing engineering principles and generating and/or reviewing detailed drawings using CAD and other design software for specific portions of construction, maintenance, and planning of transportation and development projects. You need to be self-confident, action-minded, motivated, and goaloriented with the ability to comfortably jump between concurrent projects and meet client needs. You will work both individually and as part of a team. You may coordinate with team members in other engineering disciplines to work on projects for clients. In this position, you directly report to our Private Development Design Manager but may receive daily task direction from other managers for specific projects. Your attitude and fit with the company is just as important as your skillset, so we are willing to train a top candidate in some aspects of the work. Previous experience writing reports and giving presentations is desired.

Travel, Environment, and Typical Physical Activities: Our team members perform work in an open workstation environment utilizing a personal computer and various communication tools to perform tasks and coordinate with internal and external contacts. The position involves performing technical work, including, but not limited to designing and reviewing roadway and site development plans, maintenance of traffic schemes, signing and pavement markings, construction quantities and estimates, lighting, drainage analysis, public utility design, grading plans, culvert design, storm sewers, and erosion control. You should be confident enough to participate in project meetings with the design team and clients. The candidate should have a desire to attend trainings and professional meetings to keep informed on new design criteria and policies. The position may require occasional travel to project site locations or to client offices. Site visits will occur in all seasons of the year, cold and wet weather included. Work may include walking the project to verify field surveys, searching for drainage structures, taking photos of sites, and performing traffic counts. Work-related travel could be in a personal vehicle unless a company vehicle is available. Attendance at evening public involvement, council, and/or planning and zoning meetings may be necessary.
