Summary

We’re partnered with a well-established civil engineering firm that’s known for its land development work across Southern California. They’re looking to bring on a Civil Project Engineer who can take on real design responsibility and start owning pieces of projects, not just drafting behind the scenes.

This is a good fit for someone who’s past the entry-level phase, comfortable in Civil 3D, and wants to keep growing toward full project ownership. You’ll be involved from early design through permitting and into construction, working closely with PMs, agencies, and field teams.
