Infrastructure Civil Designer

We're looking for a Civil Designer to help bring infrastructure projects to life, creating designs that support the communities where we live and work.

In this role, you'll work alongside engineers, surveyors, and project teams to develop plans for roads, utilities, drainage systems, and other infrastructure improvements. From initial concepts to construction-ready plans, you'll play an important role in turning ideas into projects that make a lasting impact. Whether you're experienced in civil design or eager to grow your skills, there's an opportunity to learn, collaborate, and make a difference at OWN.

You'll help bring infrastructure projects to life by creating designs that support the communities we serve. Along the way, you'll:

• Prepare civil engineering drawings and design plans using AutoCAD Civil 3D and other design software.
• Develop grading, drainage, utility, roadway, and site plans under the guidance of licensed engineers.
• Collaborate with engineers, surveyors, and project teams to turn design concepts into construction-ready plans.
• Review survey data, design details, and project requirements to ensure accurate, high-quality work.
• Support projects from initial design through construction while managing deadlines and multiple priorities.

• Experience in civil engineering or design is a plus, but a willingness to learn and grow is essential.
• Familiarity with or an interest in learning civil design software such as AutoCAD Civil 3D, Micro Station, Civil Storm, or HEC-RAS.
• Strong problem-solving skills, attention to detail, and the ability to stay organized across multiple projects.
• A collaborative mindset, good communication skills, and an interest in infrastructure design projects.

• At OWN, ownership means something. We’re 100% employee-owned, equitably, and we help our OWNers understand how the business performs, how their work impacts it, and how that connects to the value they’re building.
• Trust and autonomy. You’re empowered to make decisions and take ownership of your work without unnecessary layers.
• Room to make an impact. Your ideas are heard, and you’ll have a real say in how your team works, improves, and grows.
• Flexibility that’s real. The freedom to be a professional. The freedom to be a person.
• People you actually enjoy working with. We take the work seriously, but not ourselves. Good people, low egos, plenty of laughs along the way.

• Employee ownership (ESOP) at no cost to you
• 401(k) with a 3% company contribution
• Medical, dental, and vision coverage
• 16 days of PTO plus 8 paid holidays, growing with tenure
• Paid parental leave
• Company-paid life and disability insurance
• Training and leadership development programs
