Project Engineer In Training

As a Project Engineer (EIT), you will join a high-performing technical team dedicated to developing, maintaining, and deploying advanced transportation forecasting models. In this role, you will leverage urban planning, traffic engineering, and data science principles to power corporate growth, regional planning, and traffic operations. You will combine cutting-edge modeling techniques and statistical estimation to build and operate large-scale simulation models. Success in this role relies on applying core transportation principles, analyzing complex spatial data, and calibrating models to TAC and FHWA guidelines—delivering data-driven insights that shape long-term strategic initiatives like the City Plan. What will you do? - Assist the team to develop, maintain, and execute transportation models across all scales (microsimulation, mesoscopic/Dynamic Traffic Assignment (DTA), and macroscopic/travel demand) - Integrate transportation planning, engineering, and statistical techniques to optimize modeling algorithms and platforms - Coordinate data exchange to seamlessly integrate travel demand and DTA models - Research and implement advanced modeling techniques, toolsets, and emerging technologies (e.g., adaptive traffic signals, AVs, and ITS) - Configure, run, and evaluate custom model scenarios based on specific land use and network input assumptions - Perform scenario analysis for long range transportation planning, travel demand management initiatives, community traffic management plans and construction detour/closure impact assessments - Extract key performance indicators (KPIs), compile and interpret modeling results to internal and external clients - Author comprehensive technical reports for review and authentication by accountable engineers - Build interactive visual dashboards for management, Community Partners, and the public - Collaborate with internal and external subject matter experts to support evidence-based decision-making
