This is an opportunity to join a respected group of 10-15 professionals who are shaping the city's built environment through practical, hands-on engineering solutions.

In this role, you'll be the go-to communicator and project lead - managing client relationships, overseeing deliverables, and ensuring quality across a range of foundation and subsurface projects.

• Mentor and support junior engineers, promoting technical development within the team.
• Coordinate with contractors, architects, and structural engineers to ensure practical, cost-effective solutions.
• Ensure compliance with NYC-specific codes and standards, including SCA, DOB, and DEP requirements.

What You Bring

• PE license in New York (mandatory).
• Strong Northeast/New York project experience - local familiarity with agencies, subsurface conditions, and design standards.
• Proven track record managing geotechnical or foundation-related projects.
• Excellent communication and coordination skills - you know how to keep clients informed and teams aligned.
• Ability to review and guide the foundation and support of excavation designs.
• Experience with SCA, DOB, and DEP projects is highly valued.

Why Join

• Hybrid work flexibility and an engaged, collaborative team culture.
• Direct mentorship and a clear path to senior leadership.
• Competitive compensation with performance bonuses.

If you're an experienced Geotechnical Project Manager looking to take the next step in your career - leading projects, mentoring staff, and influencing design decisions - this is your chance to do it in a firm that values both professional growth and personal balance.
