About the role

The City of Lafayette is seeking a hands-on Associate Civil Engineer to design, manage, and inspect capital improvement projects in our Engineering and Public Works Department. You will present plans to the public and officials, coordinating with contractors and city leaders to deliver safe, resilient infrastructure. The ideal candidate has a PE license with 5+ years of CIP experience, proficient AutoCAD skills, and strong communication.

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.
