Job Description Bring your curiosity and determination to make a positive impact on the future of transport, and we’ll help you go all the way. Join our team of globally connected specialists to help solve complex transport challenges and experience groundbreaking projects from idea to delivery, and beyond.
Who are we looking for? We’re looking for a Senior Transportation Engineer to join our growing Highway, Roads & Bridges team in the US Southeast! In this role, you’ll take the lead in developing and preparing detailed contract plans and specifications that set the foundation for safe, efficient, and innovative roadway systems. Using advanced Computer-Aided Drafting and Design (CADD) tools, you’ll transform concepts into precise plans that meet rigorous design criteria, policies, and procedures. From roadway layouts to signing and pavement marking plans, signalization, lighting, and Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS), you’ll assemble comprehensive design packages that drive impactful projects forward.
As a key contributor, you’ll perform complex engineering and geometric calculations, determine bid items and quantities, and prepare accurate cost estimates. You’ll also craft specialized designs for intersections, traffic maintenance, and profile grades—all with minimal supervision. Your commitment to quality will shine through as you conduct thorough checks and ensure every detail aligns with project goals.
Our Hybrid Work Model Be part of the dynamic culture! Our workplace thrives on a hybrid model, combining in-office collaboration and flexibility. Join us in the office three days a week to contribute, connect and excel in our vibrant environment.
Working with an energetic and high performing team, this position offers a variety of work and will see you involved in:

Engineering Standards Specification: Contribute to the analysis of information, the drafting of engineering standards and specifications, and the evaluation of the effectiveness of those standards within own engineering discipline to inform engineering work in the organization and/or of its suppliers, contractors, and consultants.
Project Management: Deliver small- or medium-scale projects while working within an established program management plan.
Personal Capability Building: Develop own capabilities by participating in assessment and development planning activities as well as formal and informal training and coaching; gain or maintain external professional accreditation, where relevant, to improve performance and fulfill personal potential. Maintain an in-depth understanding of technology, external regulation, and industry best practices through ongoing education, attending conferences, and reading specialist media.
Client & Customer Management (External): Manage relationships with small clients while also helping senior colleagues manage relationships with larger key clients and customers.
What you’ll bring to the team:
Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering or related degree
Professional Engineering License preferred
Minimum 5 years transportation engineering experience
Familiarity with AutoCAD Civil3D (preferred) and MicroStation (desired) with the ability to become proficient in each
Proficiency with grading and working with 3D surfaces, and storm drain design is desired
Some traffic engineering experience such as completing Traffic Impact Studies and familiarity with HCS, Synchro/SimTraffic and SIDRA/RODEL traffic capacity analysis software is desired, but not required
