General Description

At the Division of Transportation (DOT) our mission is to provide a safe, efficient and innovative transportation system to enhance mobility, economic development and quality of life in Lake County. As an Civil Engineer on our team, you’ll take on meaningful projects that shape infrastructure, connect communities, and improve everyday life—while advancing your career with a team driven by innovation, collaboration, and real impact.

At the Division of Transportation, Civil Engineers can grow their careers in four rewarding areas:

Construction: Lead road and bridge projects in the field as a Resident Engineer, seeing work come to life and making real-time decisions. Responsibilities include daily inspection of construction contracts and contractor field work to ensure compliance with plans and specifications, measuring and documenting the work for payment. Primarily field-based, Mon–Fri, 6:30am–3:00pm, with anticipated paid overtime during peak construction season (April–November).
Capital Projects: As a project manager, oversee the Phase I and Phase II process for complex, high-impact projects within an $800M program, working with consultants and stakeholders to deliver major highway improvements. Office-based, Mon–Fri, 8:00am–4:30pm, with flexible schedules and remote options.
In-House Design: As a Design Engineer, design and develop roadway plans, specifications, and estimates while coordinating with agencies and partners for in-house design projects. Provide technical guidance and plan review for major highway projects led by the Capital Projects team. Office-based, Mon–Fri, 8:00am–4:30pm, with flexible schedules and remote options.
Traffic: Play a key role in improving traffic flow and safety by designing, analyzing, and optimizing signal systems and the County’s Intelligent Transportation System (ITS). Work includes signal timing, capacity analysis, and reviewing intersection improvements. Primarily office-based, Mon–Fri, 8:00am–4:30pm, with occasional field work and flexible/remote options.
