Job description
Senior Project Engineer — Heavy Civil / FDOT Roadway & Bridge
A confidential Florida heavy civil contractor is looking for a Senior Project Engineer to join the team on a major FDOT roadway and bridge infrastructure project in Orlando.
This is a strong seat for a project engineer who has already been exposed to large civil work and is ready for more responsibility — RFIs, subcontractors, technical coordination, cost tracking, schedule support, quality, field coordination, and owner/EOR communication.
The work is real infrastructure: FDOT roadway, bridge, CIP walls, MSE walls, sound walls, bridge approach and wing walls, technical details, construction sequencing, and major project execution.
This is not a paperwork-only PE role. The company needs someone who can connect the technical side of the job with what is actually happening in the field.
Why This Role Is Worth a Conversation
This opportunity offers:
A direct-hire role with an established Florida heavy civil contractor
A seat on a $100M+ FDOT infrastructure project
Exposure to roadway, bridge, CIP concrete, retaining walls, MSE walls, sound walls, and bridge approach work
A step-up opportunity for a strong PE ready to operate at a senior level
Competitive base compensation with project bonus opportunity
Full benefits
Relocation consideration for the right candidate
A confidential process from first conversation through final steps
This is the kind of role that can sharpen a project engineer fast because the work is large, technical, and visible.
What You’ll Be Driving
The Senior Project Engineer will help manage the technical, commercial, and coordination side of a major FDOT civil infrastructure project.
Key responsibilities include:
Lead and support project meetings with owners, foremen, contractors, supervisors, and internal project teams
Coordinate technical information between the project team, owner, Engineer of Record, subcontractors, and field leadership
Manage RFIs and coordinate Non-Conformance Report resolution
Review specifications, technical data, plans, shop drawings, and project details for contract and design conformance
Coordinate CIP concrete wall work, including retaining walls, MSE walls, sound walls, bridge approach walls, and wing walls
Support layout, reinforcing steel coordination, formwork, concrete placement, and curing activities
Schedule and monitor construction activities on large-scale infrastructure work
Identify conflicts, delays, and technical issues before they create field disruption
Develop operational work plans and procedures with EOR and owner approval when required
Estimate quantities, build bills of materials, and help maintain project budgets
Review supplier quotes from quality, manufacturing, engineering, and design standpoints
Negotiate and manage subcontractor contract terms and change orders
Track cost vs. bid performance variance and support cost-benefit analysis
Schedule and support quality control / quality assurance inspections
Coordinate surveying operations
Support implementation of the Safety, Health, and Environmental program
What We’re Looking For
The ideal candidate has heavy civil project engineering experience and understands FDOT work, project controls, field coordination, subcontractor management, and technical problem-solving.
Required background:
Bachelor’s degree in Construction Management, Civil Engineering, or a closely related field
3+ years of civil infrastructure project engineering and/or construction management experience
Experience on large infrastructure projects valued at $50M+
Demonstrated experience with CIP concrete walls, including retaining, MSE, sound, bridge approach, and wing walls
Working knowledge of FDOT standards, specifications, and quality control requirements
Ability to interpret FDOT plans, shop drawings, and technical details
Experience managing RFIs, technical coordination, subcontractor issues, and change orders
Cost estimating, quantity tracking, and financial analysis experience on large-scale work
Proficiency with construction project management software such as Procore, Primavera, or similar
