About The Position

The Junior Civil Engineer will work closely with other engineers and CAD technicians on various civil, solid waste, and environmental related projects in our Charlotte, NC office. The projects are challenging and provide unique design opportunities. You will be responsible for designing solid waste facilities that will enable LaBella to create sustainable, cost-effective solutions tailored to the specific needs of our clients.
