  • Communicate and collaborate with multidisciplinary teams, including roadway, drainage, structural, and environmental disciplines.
  • Attend project meetings, field reviews, and coordination sessions as assigned.
  • Support technical presentations, permitting documentation, and construction support services.

Quality Assurance
  • Adhere to SARCOR’s Gold Standard for technical accuracy and client satisfaction.
  • Participate in internal QA/QC reviews of plans, reports, and specifications.
  • Identify opportunities to improve efficiency and consistency in design production.

Professional Growth & Mentorship
  • Participate in structured mentorship and training toward professional licensure.
  • Demonstrate initiative in developing technical proficiency and leadership capabilities.
