What you will be doing: As an Engineering Assistant 1/2 Flex in the Aviation Design Group you will be responsible for performing a variety of engineering duties at the pre-licensure level under the supervision of a registered professional engineer. You will specialize in designing airport improvement projects throughout central and western Alaska that range in complexity from small, gravel‑surfaced airports in rural Alaska to paved runways, taxiways, and aprons for some of the world’s largest aircraft at international airports, and may occasionally design small highway projects.
If selected you will be part of a five‑member team consisting of a registered lead engineer, three engineering assistants, and a drafting technician with the task of developing designs and bid‑ready documents using AutoCAD Civil3D and other design software.
Our organization, mission, and culture: The DOT&PF mission is to Keep Alaska Moving and your role in this position is directly tied to the most critical aspects of the mission.

The Department is mission‑focused with an organizational atmosphere that promotes excellence, integrity, teamwork, and public service.
The benefits of joining our team: The Central Region Aviation Design Group is responsible for improving airports at over 70 communities where a majority of residents rely heavily on air transportation as a basic means of living. These airports are relied‑upon for year‑round supplies and transportation, including transportation for medical, school, mail, heating fuel, and other essential services. In this position you will have the opportunity to work on a range of projects, from remote off‑road system airports such as Napaskiak, to large local projects at the Ted Stevens Anchorage International Airport and will have unique opportunity to directly improve the daily lives of Alaskans.
DOT&PF provides an attractive work‑life balance with a 37.5 hour work week, flexible work hours and telework options, and a competitive compensation package that includes personal leave and 12 paid holidays, excellent health coverage, and many other supplemental options such as deferred compensation and health care reimbursement accounts. The Department strives to provide all employees a professional, interactive and supportive work environment. Joining the Central Region Aviation Design Group is a great opportunity for advancement, training, and a chance to work on unique aviation projects.
The working environment you can expect: If selected, your position would reside in a cubicle in the Aviation Design Section of the DOT&PF Central Region Headquarters building in Anchorage, AK located at 4111 Aviation Ave. The building is located on the shores of Lake Hood and is across from the Ted Stevens International Airport and is easily accessible by a paved multi‑use path and People Mover routes 40 and 65.
