Overview

Engineering at Mortenson is different. Engineering Services is a dedicated in-house engineering organization that supports some of the most complex energy and infrastructure projects in North America. Rather than serving as a traditional consulting firm or performing field construction work, our engineers collaborate closely with project teams to provide technical expertise, optimize designs, improve constructability, and solve complex challenges throughout the project lifecycle. This unique model allows engineers to see the direct impact of their work while enjoying diverse technical opportunities, cross-functional collaboration, and the backing of a nationally-recognized construction and development company.
