DESCRIPTION

NOTE: This position requires a Professional Engineer (P.E.) license and includes a 5% pay differential for current P.E.

About the Position

Lane County’s Engineering & Construction Services (ECS) Division is currently seeking a talented individual to help supervise our Design Engineering Team. Lane County offers a unique environment where you can contribute to the development of our communities and make a lasting impact on the lives of the residents we serve. Our team tackles urban and rural public improvement projects, while working in a county that spans a large and diverse geographic area.

As a supervising member of our Design Engineering Team, you will have the opportunity to work on a wide range of capital improvement projects, primarily focusing on major roadways and intersections, fish passage culverts using the latest stream simulation techniques, stormwater and water quality facilities, and ADA accessible designs. Project work will include review of environmental feasibility assessments, specifications, detailed cost estimates and plans designed with Civil3D. These projects are the backbone of our infrastructure, and your project management and team building skills will play a crucial role in bringing them to life.

Lane County is also known for its strong partnerships with various organizations, including the Bureau of Land Management, US Forest Service, Federal Highway Administration, Oregon Department of Transportation, several local watershed councils, and local cities. By joining our team, you will have the chance to collaborate with these entities, and network with other planning, engineering, and construction professionals.

If you are a team builder and project manager who is seeking a stimulating and fulfilling career, we encourage you to apply for our open position. Take the leap and join Lane County's Engineering & Construction Services Division to embark on a journey that will not only shape our infrastructure but also positively impact your own career.

The difference in the Advanced Level from the Lead Level is the supervisory responsibilities.
