At Atlas, we're providing services that enable communities to flourish and thrive, and if you’re a Construction Inspector committed to doing meaningful work, then this is your moment. This is a senior-level position for a candidate who can work independently in the field, represent Atlas with municipal clients and TxDOT, and mentor less experienced inspectors. Join a dynamic, value-driven, client- and community-focused environment where your work creates a lasting positive impact for the people and communities we serve.

• Communicate inspection findings, nonconformances, and schedule-impacting issues to contractors, project managers, and TxDOT/municipal representatives.
• Identify, document, and track violations or deficiencies through to resolution, and ensure work meets applicable safety standards and regulations.
• Maintain current knowledge of TxDOT specifications, special provisions, and applicable regulations, and keep required certifications up to date. Perform special inspections (e.g., structural steel or concrete) where certified and required by project scope.
• Serve as lead/chief inspector on multi-inspector crews, providing technical guidance and reviewing junior inspectors' documentation.
• Conduct inspections on TxDOT and municipal construction sites to verify compliance with plans, specifications, and special provisions, including SWPPP/traffic control, concrete paving, hot-mix asphalt (HMA), drainage, earthwork, and structural (foundation, substructure, superstructure) work.

  Associate's degree in Construction Management, Civil Engineering Technology, or related field preferred (Bachelor's a plus).

• Demonstrated ability to read and interpret civil/structural plans, cross-sections, and specifications.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills for daily reporting and stakeholder coordination.
• Prior experience as a lead or chief inspector overseeing a multi-inspector crew preferred; ability to work independently and represent Atlas directly with TxDOT and municipal clients.
• Current certifications required: ACI Concrete Field Testing Technician – Grade I, TxAPA SB102 (Hot-Mix Asphalt), Special Inspector certification (e.g., 311T), and OSHA 30-Hour Construction Safety.
