Our Land Planning market follows a multidisciplinary approach that incorporates the combined expertise of civil engineers, landscape architects, planners, and surveyors. We excel at projects both large and small in scale-whether it's creating site plans for a development, designing public spaces and bike/pedestrian paths, or incorporating green, low-impact features that help improve a community's quality of life. We invite you to join us!

We are seeking a Survey Technician who supports our land planning projects through field data collection and office-based survey processing. Responsibilities include conducting boundary, topographic, and construction surveys, preparing maps and plats, and ensuring accurate, high-quality survey deliverables.

  • Perform complex field calculations (e.g., horizontal and vertical geometry, construction stake-outs, boundary calculations).
  • Use conventional survey instruments, GPS technology, and reality capture tools to accomplish field objectives.
  • Maintain detailed field records and ensure proper documentation of collected data.

Office Responsibilities
  • Process and analyze field data to generate plats, topographic maps, and survey reports.
  • Research and interpret record maps, deeds, easements, and right-of-way documents.
  • Prepare boundary surveys, exhibits, topographic maps, and subdivision plats.
  • Assist with project planning efforts, including scheduling, task coordination, and cost estimating.
  • Collaborate and communicate with clients and internal teams to support workflow and information accuracy.
  • Review and QA/QC maps, reports, and survey deliverables to uphold project standards.

Minimum Qualifications:
  • High school diploma or GED required; Associate degree in Surveying, Engineering Technology, or Computer Drafting preferred.
  • 2 years of relevant land surveying experience.
  • Proficient in using survey equipment such as GPS units, robotic total stations, data collectors, level rods, etc.
  • Strong working knowledge of Civil 3D and Microsoft Office; experience with MicroStation, GEOPAK, and reality capture tools is a plus.
  • Willingness to work variable schedules and occasionally travel to project sites.
  • Must possess a valid driver's license.
