At TKDA, a 100% employee-owned engineering firm, you'll actually own a piece of every project you help deliver. We're looking for an experienced Professional Civil Engineer to lead comprehensive utility design and site design projects—from domestic water and fire protection systems to sanitary sewer and stormwater infrastructure.

You'll work out of our Downers Grove, Illinois office as part of our Rail division, which provides services for Class I, short-line, and commuter rail projects throughout the country. You'll collaborate with multidisciplinary teams while growing your project management skills and beginning to lead design efforts. One day, you might be working on industrial waste systems, the next, you might be diving into potable water design or complex utility coordination for building projects.

This is your chance to expand beyond individual design work. You'll start managing projects from conception through construction, mentor newer team members, and take ownership of both technical and financial project aspects. It's the perfect role for a PE ready to step into leadership while still getting their hands dirty with great engineering work.
Ready to join a team where your growth directly impacts your future? Let's talk.

Flexible Hybrid Work Schedule - in office Tuesday-Thursday and work-from-home Monday and Friday.
  • Bachelor's degree in Civil Engineering.
  • Professional Engineer in the State of Illinois (additional state registrations preferred).
  • Minimum of 5-10 years of progressive technical design experience with utility design and site design projects including domestic water systems, fire protection, sanitary sewer, stormwater management, industrial waste systems, and potable water design.
  • Proficiency with AutoCAD Civil 3D used to develop construction plans and utility designs.
  • Progressive and successful experience managing projects; strong working knowledge of the project development process including coordination with other disciplines during design and construction.
  • Ability to apply effective written and verbal communication and presentation skills when developing proposals, negotiating project contracts, preparing technical reports, leading project team meetings, and delivering client presentations.
  • Demonstrated ability to coach, mentor, and develop less experienced professionals with an emphasis on technical design standards, quality control, and/or project management practices.
  • Provide and lead Quality Assurance/Quality Control (QAQC) reviews for civil projects.
  • Experience working with regulatory agencies, and knowledge of the permit application process with state and local government entities.
  • Flexibility for up to 10% travel to conduct site visits, investigations, on-site consultations, participate in project meetings, or attend business development and industry events.
  • Must possess a valid Driver's License with a clean driving record.
