We are currently seeking a Bridge Inspector to join our Construction, Engineering, and Inspection (CEI) team located in Tallahassee, Florida.

This includes conducting quality control checks and verifying that contractors meet all compliance requirements associated with earthwork, asphalt, concrete, bridge and miscellaneous structures, toll facilities, lighting, signalization, environmental compliance, maintenance of traffic, and more. You will perform testing and verification inspections, sometimes under general supervision from senior staff members, ensuring all construction processes comply with contract and safety standards.
