HDR is looking to hire a Senior Bridge Engineer for the “Moving I-4 Forward” project. Florida is experiencing unprecedented population growth and welcoming record-setting numbers of annual visitors. In response, the state is actively working to address infrastructure needs statewide. As part of Governor DeSantis’ Moving Florida Forward Infrastructure Initiative, a Corridor Project Office (CPO) has been established to expedite a series of projects in Central Florida, including along I-4 from west of U.S. 27 in Polk County to east of S.R. 536 in Orange County and the new Poinciana Connector (S.R. 538).

Dubbed “Moving I-4 Forward,” these projects will provide congestion relief up to 15 years sooner than originally scheduled and will improve mobility, increase safety, enhance the quality of life for the community, and ensure the resiliency of the transportation system in the future.

As a Senior Bridge Engineer working on this dynamic project at the CPO in Celebration, Florida you will be in daily contact with project officials and other engineers, while supporting the Structures Program Manager in implementing the structures program. As one of the key staff in the program, you will lead coordination with roadway, drainage, structures and other engineers and designers to develop request for proposal (RFP) documents, concept plans and specifications for procurement of design/build (DB) teams.

In addition, you will supervise development of calculations and quantities in support of these elements. Your duties will also include review of submittals from the DB teams and acting on behalf of the Structures Program Manager to manage and implement initiatives. This project offers a one-of-a-kind opportunity to advance your career.
