The Engineering Director earns a competitive salary and great benefits, including medical, dental, vision, life insurance, disability, a health savings account (HSA), a flexible spending account (FSA), paid holidays, and PTO.

About Toole Design
Toole Design is the leading engineering, planning, and landscape architecture firm specializing in multimodal transportation. Since our start in 2003 as a single office in Maryland, we have expanded throughout the United States and established our California presence in 2016. Our talented multidisciplinary team of planners, landscape architects, urban designers, and engineers are committed to delivering quality work that meets the needs of all people, regardless of age, ability, race or gender. We are an Engineering News-Record top 500 design firm, have been named a "best firm to work for," and have one of the lowest staff turnover rates in the industry.
Every project our employees deliver directly and positively affects our communities. We are industry-leading experts, and we work hard to encourage a collaborative and team-oriented environment.
A Day in the Life of the Engineering Director
As an Engineering Director, you will mentor individuals and project teams, design and implement multimodal transportation projects, and oversee project performance to ensure our work is consistently top quality. Fostering a positive culture and healthy morale while maintaining a productive work environment is an integral component of this role.
In an industry that is constantly changing, you'll be at the forefront of delivering creative solutions to challenging projects. Along with other leadership in California and the West, you will develop and implement marketing, business development, and growth strategies for the region. You'll help identify key pursuits, form client outreach strategies, and build relationships in Northern California. Your knowledge of the Bay Area and surrounding areas, local government authorities, decision-makers, advocates, and local standards and procedures will be key to your success.
We are targeting a salary range of $195,000 to $235,000 for this position.
Qualifications for the Engineering Director:
California PE license and local/regional consulting experience
At least 15 years of engineering experience in conceptual design, alternatives analysis, and developing construction documents and/or public agency construction administration with a focus on streetscapes and multimodal projects
At least 10 years serving in a project and/or design management role
At least 10 years of experience with marketing and business development and a proven ability to develop and maintain client relationships
A broad knowledge base in civil or transportation engineering, with specific experience in street design and proficiency in Computer Automated Design (AutoCAD) and related software
Experience developing construction documents and cost estimates
Experience supporting local agencies and jurisdictions with Caltrans permitting and project coordination
