Project Engineer - Solar / Energy / Land Development

ABOUT LIVIC CIVIL

Imagine coming to work each day, excited to tackle challenges alongside a team that's just as driven and passionate as you are. We're LIVIC Civil, a tight-knit firm with a mission to guide our clients to success through civil engineering, land development, traffic and transportation engineering, GIS, survey, and landscape design. With several of our largest and most forward-thinking projects on the horizon, particularly in the renewable energy and land development sectors, we're looking for a Project Engineer ready to grow with us and make a lasting impact.

This role isn't for everyone. If you:

• Settle for "good enough,"
• Avoid taking on new challenges,
• Struggle with constructive feedback, or
• Prefer working solo instead of on a team,

then this might not be the right fit. But if you're a fast learner, adaptable, and eager to problem-solve in a collaborative environment, we want to meet you.

JOB SUMMARY

As a Project Engineer, you'll support our rapidly growing project portfolio in land development and renewable energy including solar infrastructure. You'll work closely with project managers, clients, and regulatory agencies to bring projects from concept through construction. This position is ideal for someone with strong technical skills, a collaborative mindset, and a passion for sustainable design and engineering excellence.

• Support permitting efforts with municipal, state, and federal agencies
• Attend field visits and site meetings to support design development and construction oversight

• Research and implement sustainable design strategies within civil site projects

PATHWAYS FOR GROWTH

At LIVIC, this is more than just a job, it's a launching pad for your career. You'll gain exposure to projects in both traditional land development and emerging solar energy markets. You'll build a network, refine your technical skills, and grow into a leadership role, all while being backed by a company that values autonomy, innovation, and continuous learning.
