Project Engineer

Who You Are : You're a dynamic problem-solver with a passion for construction. Detail-oriented and driven, you thrive in collaborative environments and excel at managing multiple responsibilities.

You're ready to take on challenges head-on and contribute to meaningful projects that make a difference.

The Opportunity : You’ll play a vital role in managing construction processes and driving project success. This role offers dynamic work, opportunities for growth, and a chance to make a significant impact in the Water, Wastewater, Industrial, and Energy sectors.

Who We Are : Our people are our strength. As an employee-owned national construction company, we prioritize collaboration, innovation, and continuous improvement.

We're committed to fostering a culture of growth and empowerment, where every team member is valued and supported.

What You’ll Do : As a Project Engineer, you'll work closely with the Project Manager and Superintendent to manage all construction processes effectively.

• Facilitating communication with stakeholders
• Streamlining purchasing processes and coordinating submittals
• Identifying and addressing potential issues proactively
• Participating in project status meetings and reporting on progress
• Contributing to site safety audits and upholding safety standards
• Assisting in project close-out activities and estimating project divisions

Why You’ll Love Working At Bowen :

• The Right Size : Large enough for great resources, small enough that you'll personally know our leadership...and they’ll know you.
• Hands-On Experience : Work directly with Craft, PMs, Superintendents, and Engineering Partners, seeing the work unfold daily.

We self-perform, fostering teamwork rather than just managing subcontractors.

• Growth Opportunities : The sky's the limit if you’re willing to work hard, be patient, and take initiative. We're committed to developing future leaders and invest in your growth.
• Safety First : "Zero Injury and Genuine Concern for Others." We don’t do shortcuts. We’ve built a culture where teams are empowered to speak up and continuously improve safety.
• Build Unique Projects : Our strength lies in deep, heavy, complex work. The variety will challenge you and keep things exciting.
• Strong Support System : We provide the training and team you need. Besides on-the-job training, we offer annual and bi-annual sessions at corporate, ensuring you're surrounded by a strong support system.
• Hard Work, Big Rewards : The work is tough but incredibly rewarding. We believe in Celebrating Success and encourage you to use your PTO.

Our company trips and close-knit teams foster lasting friendships. While construction means some travel, we do our best to keep you close to home and always have your back.
