This is an excellent opportunity to be part of our growing digital transformation team in a multi-disciplinary environmental and engineering firm, and to have a direct impact on our growth as a market sector.

Conduct constructability reviews and advise on engineering solutions tailored to troop-led capability and austere environment logistics.
Maintain direct communication with military units and government stakeholders to ensure project success.
Support Program Managers in budgeting, scheduling, subcontractor coordination, and resource allocation.
Travel frequently to remote locations to support troop-led infrastructure development (e.g., waterfronts, airfields).
Ensure compliance with safety, environmental, and quality standards.
What You'll Bring:
Prior military service in engineering or construction fields (e.g., Senior NCO or equivalent experience) is strongly preferred, but candidates with equivalent civilian experience in expeditionary troop-led construction will also be considered.
Experience working with joint engineering units (e.g., NMCBs, RED HORSE, Prime BEEF, USAF-CES, USMC-ESB) or in troop-led expeditionary infrastructure development through military, government, or contractor roles.
Ability to devise novel and innovative digital solutions that best meet our customers' mission requirements, mentor junior staff, and provide high-level technical oversight.
Willingness to travel routinely within the Pacific region.
Required Skills:
Minimum 15 years of progressive leadership in expeditionary engineering or troop-led military construction.
