Project Engineer

Are you a recent Civil Engineering or Construction Management graduate looking to build your career in heavy civil construction?

We are hiring a Project Engineer to join our team and work alongside experienced Project Managers and Superintendents on some of Northern California's most challenging heavy civil and highway projects.

This isn't a role where you'll spend your days behind a desk. You'll be in the field learning how projects are built—from preconstruction through closeout—while developing the technical and leadership skills needed to become a Project Manager.

What You'll Do

• Support project planning, scheduling, and field operations
• Assist with RFIs, submittals, change orders, and project documentation
• Coordinate with subcontractors, suppliers, and inspectors
• Track production, quantities, and project costs
• Participate in jobsite meetings, safety planning, and quality control
• Gain exposure to industry-leading software including Bluebeam, HCSS HeavyBid, Vista, and Trimble Business Center

We're Looking For

• Bachelor's degree in Civil Engineering, Construction Management, or a related field
• Strong organizational and communication skills
• Ability to read construction plans and specifications
• Willingness to work on active construction sites and travel to project locations as needed
• A proactive attitude and a desire to learn from experienced industry leaders

Why Goebel Construction?

• Competitive salary: $75,000–$95,000
• Structured mentorship from experienced construction leaders
• Direct exposure to Caltrans and federally funded heavy civil projects
• Clear career progression toward Project Manager and Senior Estimator
• Comprehensive benefits including medical, dental, vision, and 401(k)
• Vehicle allowance or company truck (project dependent)
• Ongoing training, certifications, and professional development

If you're looking for a company that invests in developing the next generation of heavy civil construction leaders, we'd love to hear from you.
