A Note on the Title
AIMRIGHT is an engineering firm staffed by registered civil and geotechnical engineers. To be clear about the role: this is a project coordination position. It does not require licensure as a Professional Engineer (PE), does not perform engineering design, and does not represent the holder as a licensed engineer. We use the Project Engineer title because it accurately describes the coordination scope and matches how the industry — and the professionals we are hiring — describe this work.
Job Description
The Project Engineer serves as the day-to-day coordinator, administrator, and liaison between the client, site leadership, and operations leadership to make sure projects proceed safely, accurately, and smoothly. This role owns the elements of a project that carry it from plans to closeout — including document control, submittal and RFI tracking, billing and report flow, client administration, and support of field coordination — so that field leaders can stay focused on execution.
Why This Role Exists
The Project Engineer keeps the operation organized by maintaining current project documentation, making sure testing and billing activity is captured, supporting report flow, and managing client-facing administrative requests. This isn't just admin support — this is project execution infrastructure.
Key Responsibilities

- Own and maintain project folders and job files so current drawings, plan sheets, RFIs, submittals, and reports are organized and up to date across internal systems and client portals.
- Coordinate billing and reporting flow — ensure testing performed, e-tickets, reports, and billing inputs are captured, reviewed for consistency and completeness, and turned in on time.
- Manage incoming client and project requests; track submissions, follow-ups, and duplicate asks.
- Monitor project administrative metrics such as labor multiplier anomalies and raise flags to site leads when something appears off.
- Support site and field leadership by handling detail-heavy coordination work so field leaders can stay focused on execution.
- Assist with other duties as assigned, relevant to the achievement of the position's and team's objectives.
