Engineering degree. No cubicle. Start in our materials lab learning how asphalt, concrete, aggregate, and soils actually perform in the field. From there, advance into surveying, field engineering, asphalt production, quarry operations, concrete, project engineering, or operations based on ability and interest. You'll help build roads, airports, subdivisions, and commercial projects, and you'll see the finished product. What you'll do Test asphalt, concrete, aggregate, and soils to TxDOT procedures and project specifications Learn how material properties affect pavement quality and construction performance Run surveys and layouts on active jobsites Collect samples and operate field and laboratory testing equipment Keep accurate field notes, test records, and photo logs Fly drones on active jobsites. Mapping, measurements, and aerial progress content Help diagnose construction and material problems as they occur Assist with estimates, submittals, schedules, and project planning Work directly with paving crews, plant personnel, surveyors, and project management Where this goes Start in the lab, build a working knowledge of construction materials and quality control, then advance based on ability and interest. We provide paid technical training and support applicable TxDOT and industry certifications as you develop in the role. Company-sponsored certifications are subject to a two-year retention agreement.
