Civil PE
Brief Description
We are looking for a motivated and self-driven Professional Engineer (PE) to join our Land Development team. This is a "bridge" role designed for a newer PE who has mastered the technical fundamentals and is ready to take full ownership of projects.
About the role
This role is ideal for a PE with 5+ years of relevant experience in land development. The candidate will manage the design process, navigate the permitting landscape, and deliver high-quality site plans from concept to completion with minimal hand-holding.
Responsibilities
Full Lifecycle Management: Lead site civil projects from "start to finish," overseeing initial due diligence, entitlement, design development, and construction administration.
Precision Engineering: Develop comprehensive site designs, including intricate grading plans and utility layouts for water, sanitary sewer, and storm drainage.
Technical Documentation: Generate high-quality profiles and cross-sections that meet stringent agency standards and ensure constructability.
Jurisdictional Coordination: Navigate the complexities of various municipalities across the region (and nationally), ensuring all designs comply with specific local codes and permitting requirements.
Client & Agency Liaison: Serve as the primary technical point of contact for a diverse client base, including national retail brands, industrial operators, and local school districts.
Project Ownership: Demonstrate a proven track record of taking redlines or conceptual sketches and transforming them into a complete, permitted construction package autonomously.

Technical Requirements & Skills:
Civil 3D Expert: You must know Civil 3D inside and out. We are looking for a "power user" who can build surfaces, pipe networks, and alignments efficiently without the need for additional technical training.
Advanced Site Design: Direct experience in commercial land development is essential. You must have a deep understanding of site-specific challenges, including parking lot geometry, ADA compliance, and private utility coordination.
Multi-Sector Versatility: Proven ability to pivot between different project types, such as quick-service restaurants (QSR), automotive dealerships, and manufacturing plants.
Regulatory Savvy: Strong familiarity with the permitting processes of various municipalities. While we work locally (e.g., Aurora, Lakewood, Thornton), experience with national jurisdictions is a significant plus.
Qualifications
Education: Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering (Master’s degree is a plus).
Licensure: Active PE license in Colorado (or eligibility for licensure by comity).
Benefits
Annual Base Salary: $94,000 - $138,000
Additional benefits include medical plans, dental, vision, employee life insurance, 401(k), Flexible Spending Accounts, paid time off, paid holidays and tuition reimbursement.
