• Employee may be called upon to perform any or all of the following functions:
• Work with a project team to create or modify all civil and structural design documents and drawings for a project, under direct supervision.

• Take ownership of your work — double-check calculations and drawings before submitting, and catch errors before they become someone else's problem.
• Learn the "why" behind engineering standards and codes (NESC, IEEE, ANSI, AISC, ACI), not just the requirements, to build real design judgment.
• Spend time at job sites to connect your designs to real-world construction, and bring proposed solutions along with any problems you raise.
• Master the document management system and corporate engineering practices, and say yes to travel and additional assignments to build credibility fast.
