Oversee the analysis, design, and preparation of plans, specifications, estimates, and technical memoranda.
Ensure compliance with MUTCD, FHWA, AASHTO, and applicable state and local agency standards.
Serve as the primary technical point of contact for clients, agencies, and project stakeholders while supporting proposal development and scope definition.
Provide technical oversight, quality control reviews, and mentorship to engineering and design staff.
Coordinate with roadway, structural, planning, utility, drainage, and construction teams to support integrated project delivery and ongoing business development efforts.
