Civil Engineer Jobs in South Saint Paul, MN

A Civil Engineer plays a pivotal role in the construction industry, overseeing the design, construction, and maintenance of infrastructure projects such as roads, bridges, buildings, dams, and airports. They are responsible for ensuring the safety and durability of these structures, including their ability to withstand natural disasters. Civil Engineers carry out site investigations, analyze survey reports, maps, and data, as well as plan and design the structures according to the gathered information. They also handle budgeting, time management, and communication with clients, architects, and contractors.

Pertinent skills for a Civil Engineer include strong mathematical and scientific ability, problem-solving skills, design skills, and knowledge of construction materials and methods.

Prior to becoming a Civil Engineer, individuals may take on roles such as Civil Engineering Intern, Junior Civil Engineer, or a Construction Project Engineer to gain practical experience in the field.
