About the role

CDM Smith is seeking a Task Leader to support and lead the technical delivery of highway design projects across New England. This hands-on role is ideal for a mid- to senior-level transportation engineer looking to grow into broader project leadership while staying engaged with design work. You will base in Boston, MA; East Hartford, CT; or Manchester, NH with hybrid work flexibility, mentoring junior engineers, reviewing designs, and coordinating with project teams to meet schedule and budget

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
