    Description

    Toole Design Group in Austin, TX is looking to hire an experienced and talented full-time Transportation Engineer (Project Engineer). Do you have a strong background in civil or transportation/traffic engineering? Do you have experience with roadway/corridor design or analyzing and designing streets and intersections? Do you love mentoring other engineers and bringing out the best in them? Are you passionate about sustainability and the opportunity to work on challenging multimodal projects that serve all people, not just motorists? Would you like to work for a firm that is committed to the well-being of its employees? If so, please consider joining our Austin team.

    This engineering position, with a focus on roadway design and active transportation, earns a competitive salary and great benefits, including medical, dental, vision, life insurance, disability, a health savings account (HSA), and a flexible spending account (FSA). We practice what we preach and ensure that our employees also have access to multimodal transportation by providing them with financial incentives to bike, walk, or use transit for a better quality of life.

    About Toole Design

    Toole Design is a North American leader in the delivery of streets and public spaces where people can move freely and intuitively, enjoying the experience and being a part of the community instead of just moving through it. Since our start in 2003 as a single office in Maryland, we have expanded throughout the United States and Canada. Our talented team of planners, landscape architects and engineers are committed to delivering quality work that meets the needs of all people, regardless of age, ability, race or gender. We have been named a "best firm to work for" and have one of the lowest staff turnover rates in the industry. We are a highly collaborative firm, proud of our ability to share resources between offices to support our team members and support our "one company" ethos and every project our employees deliver directly and positively affects our communities.

    A Day in the Life of a Project Engineer

    You will get the chance to be part of an interdisciplinary team to deliver multimodal transportation infrastructure in a wide range of contexts. You are at the forefront of the brainstorming of creative solutions for challenging projects. You manage tasks and small projects and mentor junior team members as you grow your project management skills. You will continue to develop your engineering knowledge by working on a wide range of projects which include:

    • the evaluation and design of multimodal transportation infrastructure,
    • corridor planning projects in suburban and urban contexts,
    • systemic safety improvements at high-risk intersections,
    • delivery of roadway reconstruction and streetscape plan sets, and
    • signal analysis and design modifications to enhance multimodal safety.
    As a Project Engineer, you understand technical software such as AutoCAD, MicroStation, or Synchro and help your team to complete production work on projects. You participate in business development pursuits in your home region as well as across our North American offices. You get to work with a close-knit team that is passionate about their work and the communities that you serve.

    Work Schedule for a Project Engineer

    This full-time position typically works a flexible schedule. This position is currently remote in the Austin, Texas region with the expectation to eventually work in-person 2 to 3 days per week at an office in Austin. We will provide the necessary equipment and flexibility to work remotely along with other Austin-based team members.

    About our Austin Team

    Austin is one of the most exciting cities for multimodal and active transportation. Whether it's helping to deliver Austin's Mobility Bond projects, updating the City's Urban Trails and Sidewalks Plans through ATX Walk Bike Roll, designing high-comfort bikeways in Houston, or creating District-level Bike Plans for TxDOT, Toole Design is helping to shape the future of Texas.

    Since 2017, a team of Toole Design engineers and planners have provided full-time, on-site staff augmentation to the City of Austin's Transportation Department to deliver Mobility Bond projects. We are creating a new, standalone Austin office to complement this team by working on a range of planning and design projects across Texas, many of which are already underway. Our vision for our new Austin office is one that is talented, multidisciplinary, diverse, and cohesive.

    If offered this position, you'll be leading and growing an engineering team in one of the most exciting cities for multimodal transportation. Whether it's helping to deliver Austin's Mobility Bond projects or designing high-comfort bikeways in Houston, Toole Design is helping to shape the future of active transportation in Texas.
