What We're Looking For

Join our Southern California Transportation Team! We are growing our offices in Orange County (Santa Ana) and in the Inland Empire (Ontario). We are supporting high profile transportation projects in the Inland Empire and Orange County such as Brightline West (high speed rail), I -10 Freeway corridor in San Bernardino, various LA Metro and Caltrans Highway projects! Why not grow your career in civil engineering while supporting these important projects that support the infrastructure in your communities?
At HNTB, you can create a career that is meaningful to you while building communities that matter to all of us. For more than a century, we have been delivering solutions for some of the largest, most complex infrastructure projects across the country. With our historic growth, it is an exciting time to join our team of employee-owners.
HNTB is currently seeking to hire a traffic project engineer in their Orange County or Ontario office.

In addition, the candidate will also assist with traffic design work for plans, specification, and estimate (PS&E) packages such as signing/striping, traffic signal, stage construction, and traffic handling plans. Communications skills (verbal and written) and ability to work with remote teams are very important.
