Concrete Engineer, Infrastructure Engineer

Concrete Engineer

The Concrete Engineer is a team member of Kiewit Infrastructure Engineering (KIE). This position’s primary role is to provide support to construction operations, perform analysis, and design for Kiewit projects, including a direct impact to other teams within the engineering district.

Project involvement can be at any stage (Get Work or Build Work) of a project’s life cycle. Key tasks include proposal development, Task Force participation, technical proposal design including alternative technical design concept (ATC), proposal cost estimating support, development of final designs, concrete troubleshooting, development of project specifications, concrete mixes, testing procedures, thermal control plans, durability and service life engineering, construction engineering, and construction operations oversight.

Projects often rely on KIE technical resources, consultants, and/or subcontractors for staffing engineering related construction tasks. Typical project deliverables include technical solutions, design reports, memorandums, and letters. Deliverables provide technical analysis, interpretations, and professional recommendations in accordance with KIE’s Design Quality Management Plan. Some deliverables require field technical support with investigations and site visit observations during construction.

Concrete Engineering is a specialty engineering service with high visibility with Project upper management, where professionalism is always expected. Project related travel varies but is projected to be approximately 25% and can be anywhere in North America. Continued job‑related learning (Kiewit University, Professional Engineer Continuing Education, personal professional development) is encouraged and expected.
