Land Development Project Engineer

The Opportunity : Are you ready to take control of your projects, make real-time decisions, and see your work come to life without layers of red tape?

This opportunity is with a smaller, privately held engineering firm where you have the freedom to lead — not just follow a process.

We’re seeking a Professional Engineer (PE) experienced in Land Development who wants more ownership over their work and direct influence on project outcomes.

You’ll join a team with a strong backlog of private and public development projects, from 1-acre commercial sites to 3,000-acre master-planned communities — valued anywhere from $50,000 to several million dollars.

Why This Role Stands Out

• More Control. Make decisions without waiting for endless approvals — your judgment is trusted here.
• Manage Less, Do More. Lead a small, focused team and manage 10–12 projects at once, allowing you to stay deeply involved in both the technical and leadership sides.
• Lean & Agile Environment. Fewer layers, fewer rules, and more opportunities to drive results.
• Strong, Stable Backlog. A diverse pipeline of land development projects ensures stability and long-term growth.
• Rewarding Compensation. Competitive salary range of $120K–$200K + Bonus, reflecting your expertise and leadership.
