About this role

Trilon Group's Innovative Pursuits Team is seeking a Design-Build Drainage Lead to manage the drainage discipline for transportation infrastructure projects across the Mountain West region. You'd lead engineering teams through design-build and progressive design-build pursuits and projects—ranging from freeways and interstate highways to urban facilities—while coordinating with other discipline leads and serving as an integral part of the project delivery team. The role demands hands-on expertise in drainage and hydraulic design, analysis, and specifications, combined with proficiency in industry-standard software like MicroStation, OpenRoads, and Civil 3D.

This position is built for someone with at least 10 years of drainage design experience on infrastructure projects and 3+ years specifically in DOT design-build or progressive design-build work. A current PE license (preferably in UT, NV, AZ, ID, CO, NM, or WA) is preferred. Beyond technical capability, the role emphasizes leadership and communication—you'll need to work effectively with team members and clients, meet tight deadlines, and articulate designs persuasively across all organizational levels. The hybrid arrangement is based in Albuquerque, with travel expected across the Rocky Mountain region.

Trilon Group offers a competitive salary between $180,000 and $230,000, comprehensive benefits including medical, dental, vision, and disability coverage, generous PTO, a 401(k) match up to 6%, and an unmatched comp time policy that lets you convert overtime hours to additional pay or PTO. Professional development and licensure support are included.
