Project Manager / EIT – Texas

You’ll Be Perfect For This Role If: 
You’re a Project Manager/EIT or newly licensed PE with 2-6 years of civil engineering experience, and you’re frustrated with how most firms develop project managers. Maybe you’re tired of: 

↳ Being stuck between production work and actual project leadership with no clear path forward 
↳ Managing timelines and budgets without the authority or training to do it well 
↳ Working late nights in an office coordinating work that could be done remotely 
↳ Vague promises about “leadership opportunities” with no real mentorship or development plan 

You want to lead commercial development projects warehouses, retail centers, master-planned communities and actually own the engineering decisions and client relationships, not just relay messages between drafters and senior engineers. 

You’re ready to use modern tools (including AI) to manage projects more efficiently, and you understand that great project management means solving problems proactively, not just updating schedules reactively. 

What We Believe 
How we run things differently: 

We Develop Project Managers, Not Just Coordinators 
Your value isn’t how many status updates you can send—it’s how well you anticipate problems, make sound engineering decisions, and deliver quality projects on time and on budget. A project manager who catches a grading conflict before it reaches the field? That’s what separates good firms from great ones. 

Mentorship From Experienced PEs 
We pair every project manager with a senior PE who actually has time to develop your technical judgment and leadership skills. Not “figure it out yourself” mentorship—structured guidance where you learn how to balance client needs, technical requirements, and team capacity. 

Real Authority With Real Support 
You’ll have genuine decision-making authority on your projects—but you’re never left to sink or swim alone. You’ll know when to make the call yourself and when to pull in senior technical expertise. 

AI Handles Project Admin 
We use AI for generating progress reports, formatting submittal packages, and drafting client communication. You still do all the project management and engineering coordination—AI just eliminates the administrative tasks that waste your time. 

Clear Growth Path 
We don’t just say “you’ll advance eventually.” Whether you’re pursuing your PE license or already have it, we have a structured development plan: what you should master by month 6, month 12, month 24. We track your progress and make sure you’re building the skills for senior leadership. 

We Keep Improving 
“That’s how we’ve always done it” isn’t acceptable. We’re constantly refining our project delivery methods, adopting better coordination approaches, and staying current with regulations—and we expect you to do the same. 

What You’ll Do 
Lead commercial site development projects from kickoff through construction support: 
↳ Manage complete project delivery for commercial developments, including timelines, budgets, and quality standards 
↳ Serve as primary client contact for technical discussions, progress updates, and scope coordination 
↳ Coordinate internal teams—assign work to drafters and junior engineers, review their deliverables, and ensure consistency 
↳ Oversee technical design including site layout, grading, drainage systems, and utility coordination 
↳ Prepare and review engineering calculations for stormwater management, detention sizing, and utility design 
↳ Lead permitting efforts with municipal, county, and state agencies (TCEQ, local jurisdictions) 
↳ Conduct site visits to gather survey data, verify existing conditions, and support construction administration 
↳ Manage project documentation including design decisions, client communications, and submittal packages 
↳ Support business development by contributing to proposals and building client relationships 
↳ Mentor junior team members in technical skills and project coordination 

What You Need 
Required: 
↳ Bachelor’s degree in Civil Engineering 
↳ EIT certification required (PE license preferred but not required) 
↳ 3-6 years of experience in civil site design or land development 
↳ Demonstrated project coordination or project management experience 
↳ Proficiency in AutoCAD Civil 3D, including grading, pipe networks, and surfaces 
↳ Strong understanding of civil engineering fundamentals, particularly site development and drainage design 
↳ Experience with stormwater calculations and detention basin sizing 
↳ Excellent attention to detail and commitment to quality 
↳ Strong problem-solving skills and ability to manage competing priorities 
↳ Effective written and verbal communication skills for client interaction 
↳ Self-starter who can work independently in a remote environment 

Preferred: 
↳ PE license in Texas (or ability to obtain within 12 months) 
↳ Experience with hydraulic modeling software (HydroCAD, StormCAD, AutoCAD SSA) 
↳ Familiarity with Texas development codes and TCEQ regulations 
↳ Previous experience managing commercial development projects 
↳ Experience coordinating with surveyors, geotechnical engineers, and contractors 
↳ Interest in water/wastewater infrastructure (we can develop this expertise) 

What We Offer 
Work Environment: 
↳ 100% remote—work from anywhere with reliable internet 
↳ Flexible scheduling that respects your life outside of work 
↳ Complete digital training on our cloud-based systems and AI tools 
↳ Modern collaboration tools: Microsoft Teams, SharePoint, and project management platforms 
↳ Top-tier hardware and software—we invest in tools that help you succeed 

Compensation & Benefits: 
↳ Salary: $90k–$135k based on experience 
↳ Full medical, dental, and vision coverage 
↳ 401k with 4% company match 
↳ Support for PE exam preparation and licensure (if pursuing) 

Leadership & Impact: 
↳ Direct reporting: Work directly with Senior Professional Engineer 
↳ Strategic influence: Shape how we deliver projects and develop our team 
↳ Build something meaningful: Help prove there’s a better way to develop engineering talent 

Why This Matters 
Right now, most firms promote engineers into project management based on technical skills alone then provide minimal training on how to actually manage projects, clients, or teams. People struggle, projects suffer, and talented engineers either burn out or plateau. 

We’re changing that. 
When you join us, you’re proving that project managers can be developed systematically, contribute strategic value, and advance their careers without sacrificing quality of life or working 60-hour weeks. 

From commercial developments to municipal infrastructure, you’ll lead projects that shape how communities grow and you’ll have the support, tools, and mentorship to do it well. 

This Role Isn’t For Everyone 
We’re probably not the right fit if you: 
↳ Just want to execute tasks without taking ownership of outcomes 
↳ Think AI and modern tools have no place in engineering (we use them extensively) 
↳ Prefer being told exactly what to do rather than developing judgment 
↳ Believe “that’s how we’ve always done it” is a valid reason 
↳ Need constant supervision or struggle with remote work independence 

But if you’re ready to step into real project leadership where modern tools eliminate busywork, structured mentorship accelerates your development, and working remotely doesn’t limit your career growth let’s talk. 

How to Apply 
Send us three things: 
↳ Your resume highlighting your project management and civil/site design experience 
↳ A brief cover letter explaining why this approach to developing project managers resonates with you 
↳ A 3-minute video explaining how you would approach managing a commercial site development project from kickoff through permitting
