Civil engineers · Open now

Civil engineers, matched on the work you seal and how you work with a team.

Grading, stormwater, utilities, roadways and plats. The PE is a legally required license for the engineer-of-record slot; employers can make it a hard requirement, and nothing else is.

How it works for civil engineers

Licenses

Common here: Professional engineer (PE), Engineer in training (EIT). The professional engineer (PE) is the one the law requires for this slot, so it's needed to be matched on it, and employers may make it a hard requirement. A license with its number counts for matching; verification is optional.

Trade partners you might meet

Surveyors, architects, landscape architects, construction managers and environmental and transportation engineers.

Where you'd meet

On site, at the trailer, the shop or the office. Field roles always meet in person.

Project work and video

Civil design can be done remotely: a timed 30-minute video meetup is planned for remote-capable roles when both sides are ID-verified.

Questions

Do civil engineers need a résumé?

No. You answer a tap-only questionnaire, check your skills and how deep each one goes, play a few short work stories, and invite people to vouch for you.

How is my license shown?

Entered with its number and state, it counts for matching right away and shows as "Self-reported". Verification ($29.99) adds a "Verified" badge. The number is never shown.

Can I meet over video?

Not yet. A timed 30-minute video meetup is planned for project work in this field, when both sides are ID-verified. Hiring and networking meet in person.
