Bachelor’s in Civil or Construction Engineering (preferred)
10+ years of construction inspection/resident engineering experience, including leadership
Experience serving as Resident Engineer on municipal and/or IDOT BLRS projects
Knowledge of federal/MFT-funded project requirements and IDOT procedures
Experience with IDOT District 1 coordination and municipal clients
Proficiency with IDOT CMMS (required); eBuilder preferred
Illinois P.E. preferred
