Job description
At TKDA, a 100% employee-owned engineering firm, you’ll actually own a piece of every project you help deliver. We’re looking for a Professional Civil Engineer ready to take the next step in their career—from renewable energy sites to food processing facilities, academic campuses to municipal infrastructure.
You’ll work out of our new Bloomington, Minnesota, office, collaborating with multidisciplinary teams while growing your project management skills and beginning to lead design efforts. One day, you might be working on stormwater management, the next, you might be diving into utility infrastructure or corporate campus development.
This is your chance to expand beyond individual design work. You’ll start managing projects from conception through construction, mentor newer team members, and take ownership of both technical and financial project aspects. It’s the perfect role for a PE ready to step into leadership while still getting their hands dirty with great engineering work.
Ready to join a team where your growth directly impacts your future? Let’s talk.
Flexible Hybrid Work Schedule - in office Tuesday-Thursday and work-from-home Monday and Friday.

- Professional Engineer in the State of Minnesota.
- Minimum of five years of progressive technical design experience with site development projects including site layouts, site grading, roadway design, utility design, vehicular and/or pedestrian access, stormwater management, and site permitting.
- Proficiency with AutoCAD Civil 3D used to develop construction plans, grading plans, and site designs.
- Progressive and successful experience managing projects; strong working knowledge of the project development process including coordination with other disciplines during design and construction.
- Ability to apply effective written and verbal communication and presentation skills when developing proposals, negotiating project contracts, preparing technical reports, leading project team meetings, and delivering client presentations.
- Demonstrated ability to coach, mentor, and develop less experienced professionals with an emphasis on technical design standards, quality control, and/or project management practices.
- Provide and lead Quality Assurance/Quality Control (QAQC) reviews for civil projects.
- Experience working with regulatory agencies, and knowledge of the permit application process with FEMA, DOT, DNR, and state / local government entities.
- Flexibility for limited overnight travel to conduct on-site consultations, participate in project meetings, or attend business development and industry events.
- Must possess a valid Driver’s License with a clean driving record.
