Office Engineer Baltimore, MD

Ballard Marine Construction takes on the work others cannot or will not. As a specialty marine and underwater contractor, we solve complex problems across some of the most technically demanding infrastructure projects in North America.

We are built for the hard stuff. Our teams work on projects that demand technical depth, creativity, grit, and the confidence to make smart decisions when the path forward is not obvious. That is part of what makes Ballard different and why the people here take so much pride in the work. Our culture is just as intentional. We are competitive, accountable, collaborative, and serious about surrounding ourselves with people who want to contribute, improve, and win together.

From the field to the office, everyone is expected to take ownership and bring something to the table.

If you want to be part of a company doing meaningful, challenging work with people who care about getting it right, Ballard is a place where you can build something real.

Office Engineers plays a critical role in the successful execution of marine and heavy civil construction projects by providing technical, operational, and engineering support throughout the project lifecycle. Working closely with project managers, superintendents, and field crews, this position is responsible for project planning, scheduling, estimating, document control, procurement, quality assurance, and field coordination to help deliver projects safely, on time, and within budget.

Success in this role requires strong technical knowledge, effective communication, sound problem-solving skills, and a commitment to Ballard's culture of safety, accountability, and operational excellence.

• Grit and Resiliency - We dig deep to figure out how to make things happen no matter how impossible it seems. We never give up. We take on challenges that nobody else can; or will.
• Comradery and Inspirational - We are a hard-working team of likeminded individuals working toward a common goal. We regularly celebrate wins and like to have fun whether at work or  come together each day looking for ways to instill life and energy into the world around us.
• Driven and Competitive - We love competition. We love to win and love to learn when we lose. Not getting the job done is not an option. We are obsessed to do our best and we do what it takes to win.
• Trustworthy and Respectful - We are passionate about honesty, authenticity and transparency. No lies. No drama. No politics. We value constructive conflict and ensure that even in conflict we treat others with respect.
• Ownership and Accountability - When something goes wrong, we first “look in the mirror” before we “look out the window”. We ask “what could I have done differently?” and then we share lessons learned. Regularly challenging ourselves and those around us to be better is a way of life. “Me first” belongs here.
