Civil Engineer Municipal / Public Works

We’re working with a well-established civil engineering firm in Central New Jersey that’s actively adding to their municipal engineering team. This role is geared toward engineers who have experience in public-sector work — supporting townships, counties, and utility-related infrastructure projects.

This is not a heads-down drafting role. They’re looking for someone who can own pieces of municipal projects, work through agency coordination, and grow into a more client-facing engineer over time. If you’ve worked on roadway, drainage, or utility improvements tied to public work, this will feel very familiar.

• Prepare civil engineering plans and construction documents using AutoCAD Civil 3D
• Support design for municipal infrastructure projects (roadways, drainage, water/sewer, capital improvements)
• Perform grading, drainage, and stormwater design aligned with local/state standards
• Assist with NJDEP / township permitting and approvals
• Respond to municipal review comments and revise plans accordingly
• Coordinate with internal teams and public agencies throughout project lifecycle
• Support preparation of reports, calculations, and technical documentation
• Contribute to projects from early design through construction documentation

• 4-8 years of civil engineering experience (municipal or public-sector exposure strongly preferred)
• Proficient in AutoCAD Civil 3D
• Experience with stormwater management and utility design
• Familiarity with NJ municipal standards, permitting, or agency coordination
• Strong communication skills — able to work directly with internal teams and agencies
• Looking for someone who wants to grow into more responsibility vs. stay purely production

• Full benefits (medical, dental, vision)
• 401(k) with company contribution
• PTO + paid holidays
• Strong backlog of municipal work (steady pipeline, not feast/famine)
• Clear path toward Project Engineer / PM track
