• Digital Modeling – Build high-fidelity models and documentation using Bentley OpenBridge, MicroStation, and related tools.
• Cross-Disciplinary Collaboration – Partner with project leads, roadway, hydraulic, and geotechnical teams to integrate structural solutions seamlessly.
• Project Documentation – Create quantity takeoffs, technical reports, and cost-estimate support materials.
• Quality Assurance – Review submittals and shop drawings to ensure compliance with DOT standards and internal quality criteria.
• Stakeholder & Field Engagement – Coordinate with external parties and participate in site visits to understand the full project lifecycle from concept to construction.

Requirements

• Education – B.S. in Civil Engineering or Architectural Engineering with a structural focus.
• Experience – 3+ years designing bridges or transportation structures; hands-on with DOT projects preferred.
• Technical Skills – Hand calculations & software analysis (e.g., SAP2000, RAM, STAAD); Bentley OpenBridge, MicroStation, or equivalent BIM platforms; strong grasp of bridge-specific codes and standards.
• Soft Skills – Ability to juggle multiple assignments and meet deadlines; clear, concise communication for diverse audiences; collaborative mindset and proactive problem-solving.
• Certifications – EIT or PE required.
• Attributes – Passion for building real infrastructure; commitment to continuous learning; desire to mentor and be mentored.
