What you will do:

As a key leader within our transportation team, you will play an instrumental role in expanding our presence across Central Texas while overseeing the successful delivery of transportation projects for public-sector clients. Responsibilities include:

Serving as a Senior Project Manager and Transportation Practice Leader for Central Texas, with the opportunity to assume broader office leadership responsibilities.
Leading business development efforts across the Austin region, leveraging existing relationships and developing new client connections with TxDOT, Travis County, Williamson County, Hays County, CAMPO, municipalities, and other transportation stakeholders.
Managing transportation projects from planning and schematic design through final design and construction support.
Providing technical leadership for transportation schematic design, corridor studies, feasibility studies, preliminary engineering, roadway design, and multimodal transportation improvements.
Leading pursuit strategies, capture planning, interviews, and proposal development for key transportation opportunities.
Building and maintaining strong relationships with transportation decision-makers, program managers, and public sector leaders throughout Central Texas.
Mentoring and developing project managers, engineers, EITs, and emerging leaders through coaching and hands‑on project involvement.
Collaborating with transportation, planning, traffic, environmental, and municipal infrastructure professionals to deliver integrated solutions.

Providing project oversight, quality management, risk management, and client satisfaction leadership across your portfolio.
Identifying opportunities to expand services and strengthen existing client relationships.
Representing the firm at industry events, professional organizations, and community engagements throughout the region.
