A leader in designing infrastructure that makes life better.

At CPL, we do work for the greater good. Our culture is rooted in helping others and we want to see our neighborhoods thrive. From hospitals, town halls, schools and universities to stadiums, houses, highways and bridges, we actively demonstrate what it means to be a full-service team.

We’re well-equipped to build cities from the ground up, and we deepen relationships by co-creating with our clients to bring their visions to life. We’re devoted to shaping an intentional environment that promotes professional development, camaraderie and fun, and as we continue to grow, we’ll need innovators like you to help us deliver powerful results.

THE JUNIOR CIVIL ENGINEER AT CPL

The Junior Civil Engineer is an entry-level team member with a strong desire to learn. You’re technically nimble and passionate about details, actively embracing complexity, and you support our efforts to topple barriers through sustainable design. Reporting to a Project Engineer or Project Manager, you assist in the development of conceptual designs for small to large-scale industrial and commercial assignments.

Whether you’re performing site grading or preparing reports, you play a key role in advancing CPL’s mission, gleaning valuable knowledge from seasoned experts, honing their engineering skills and building an impressive portfolio of water, wastewater and stormwater system projects that improve quality of life on all levels – and you have fun doing it.

WHAT YOU BRING TO THE TABLE

  • You know a ton about the principles of engineering, physics and math
  • You can perform moderately difficult technical computations and consolidate acquired data
  • You have a working knowledge of AutoCAD, MicroStation, Civil3D, Revit and/or Open Roads, and you’re proficient in utilizing Microsoft Office
  • You can comprehend and carry out elaborate oral or written instructions
  • An understanding of construction plans/specifications and their application to public works projects is a major plus
  • You earned a BS in civil engineering (congrats!)
  • You’ve got 1 – 3 years of civil/municipal engineering experience (including internships)
  • An EIT certification is another major plus

CORE DUTIES

  • Use AutoCAD for pretty much everything – like preparing engineering plans, drawings and models
  • Research, evaluate and execute appropriate engineering techniques and code provisions for a wide range of projects with unique needs
  • Conduct site/construction inspections, making notes and taking measurements and photos
  • Perform erosion control, site grading and other civil/municipal tasks
  • Compile maps, reports and forms
  • Consistently seek infrastructure improvement opportunities and identify better design options for our clients

GUIDING VALUES

We believe that building a strong community is about establishing a prevailing sense of fellowship among our team members, friends and neighbors. In doing so, CPL visionaries embody these principles daily:

  • Integrity – doing what is ethically right and providing reliable follow-through on commitments
  • Ingenuity – seeking new opportunities and consistently identifying unexpected and practical ways to solve problems
  • Inspiration – contributing to an uplifting workplace that facilitates growth and success by maintaining a positive, upbeat attitude
  • Collaboration – working with others towards the best solution, placing great emphasis on the collective wisdom of our internal teams
  • Family – celebrating others’ successes, genuinely caring about the happiness and well-being of our team members and recognizing their own families as extensions of the CPL family
  • Fun – not taking oneself too seriously, fully understanding that fun at work is conducive to productivity

WHAT WE OFFER

Competitive pay, professional development programs to advance your career and a comprehensive, individualized benefits package that covers all aspects of wellness – physical, emotional, mental and financial – to assist you and your family.
