Job Description


The Senior Engineer position will involve performing engineering tasks, in the field, office, and lab, under the supervision of more senior engineers and managers. Your primary responsibilities will be to support and carry out non-destructive testing, evaluation, and reporting as it relates to transportation infrastructure. You may also be needed to assist in other areas of work, as needs dictate, especially assisting on Subsurface Utility Engineering (SUE). Based on your performance and the needs of the company, this position presents the potential for increased responsibility and growth within the firm.

This is a full-time position with full benefits for a qualified applicant. The candidate should have at least B.S.C.E. degree (M.S.C.E. or higher preferred) with thorough knowledge of NDT technologies applied in civil engineering.

He/she should be well-versed with NDT testing and analysis methods that include GPR (for Asphalt thickness measurement and Subsurface utility Engineering (SUE)), Impact Echo (IE), Surface Analysis of Seismic Waves (SASW), pavement testing and evaluation. Knowledge of other NDT technologies such as Infrared Thermography, Electrical Resistivity, Ultrasonic Testing, FWD, LCMS or others is highly desirable. It is also preferable that the candidate has some knowledge of geotechnical engineering and geophysical engineering. Effective oral and written communication skills are required.

The immediate responsibilities of the successful candidate may include but are not limited to the execution of NDT/NDE projects, QC/QA of NDT engineering design projects as well as assisting with project management. These projects typically involve conducting site reconnaissance visits and performing NDT testing; evaluating the existing condition of pavements; locating subsurface utilities, analyzing conventional and NDT test data (e.g., analysis of GPR data, LCMS and back calculation of FWD data, etc.); preparing proposals and compiling cost estimates; invoices, as well as, preparing technically and grammatically sound project reports. The candidate is also expected to supervise other staff members, including NDT Technicians.
