As part of Garver's Denver, Colorado Aviation team, this Project Engineer will be responsible for designing airport projects, including improvements to runways, taxiways, aprons, airfield grading and drainage, hangars, fuel farms, parking decks, terminal buildings, and other airport construction projects. If the engineer lacks previous aviation civil experience, they will need to start at one of Garver's aviation design centers for at least six months.

Design development will utilize software packages like AutoCAD, Civil 3D, Storm and Sanitary, among others.

As responsibilities expand, the engineer will have opportunities to work on airports across Garver's service area, including onsite construction observation, construction administration, and submittal reviews for ongoing projects.
