This role asks you to bring that same set of skills to a different challenge: determining why an incident occurred. You will work alongside nationally respected experts on casework that is consequential to industry and society, and you will keep learning for the rest of your career.

  • Experience: 10+ years of hands-on experience (including DOT experience) in highway construction (excavation, paving, drainage, utilities, bridges and other structures, etc.), traffic control and safety in highway work zones, construction management, construction inspection, construction safety, means & methods, contracts, scheduling, estimating, subcontractor management, quality control, fieldwork analyses, and incident and claims investigations.

  • Knowledge: Thorough working knowledge of highway construction site procedures.

  • Skills: Excellent technical, analytical, writing, and communication skills.

  • Aptitude: Strong ability to translate complex technical findings into clear, objective evidence for non-technical audiences.

  • Other: Aclean background screen, a driver's license, and the ability to drive.



Experience that helps, though not required :


  • Highway/roadway design and/or maintenance

  • Materials testing

  • Residential or commercial land development

  • Stormwater systems design

  • Parking lot design/construction

  • Vertical construction

  • Crash investigation/reconstruction.



Work style:

Approximately 20% of the role is travel for training and inspections. The remainder is analysis and report writing, working independently and as part of a collaborative team. Our experts offer and receive support/mentoring in a firm with over 100 scientists, engineers, and other professionals and manage a portfolio of 50-70 projects/clients.

Location: Dallas/Irving, TX area (hybrid)
