You should be comfortable with project management fundamentals, proficient in Microsoft Office, and ideally experienced with Bentley MicroStation and Open Roads Designer. The salary range is $105,000 to $150,000, with an uncommon comp time policy that lets you convert overtime hours into additional pay or PTO.
