Are you interested in a career where you are doing important work for your community, feel connected to a legacy greater than yourself, have a sense of ownership, and feel empowered to grow? HNTB has shaped the built environment with distinct expertise across a full spectrum of infrastructure solutions since 1914. From iconic architecture and complex bridges to efficient highways and digital infrastructure solutions, our collaborative approach and commitment to technical excellence drive us to build a better future for our clients, communities, and ourselves. We are the largest employee-owned transportation engineering firm in the country, but we do not merge with or acquire other firms. HNTB has grown to over 7,000 employee-owners one person at a time. Since 1945, HNTB has served as the General Engineering Consultant for the Maine Turnpike, supporting important initiatives like the introduction of electronic tolling, system modernizations and safety improvements, capacity enhancements, capital planning and asset management, and supporting the day-to-day operations of the Turnpike. HNTB's Northern New England Office was ranked sixth amongst large employers by Maine's Best Places to Work in 2025, and we are seeking an industry-best professional to join our team and support our continuing service to the Maine Turnpike Authority-HNTB's oldest continuous client. We are seeking a versatile transportation professional to join our Maine Turnpike program management team. In this role, you will serve as a key point of coordination and communication with our client, ensuring their needs are clearly understood and fully met. You will support a broad range of multidisciplinary program management tasks and projects, helping to plan, prioritize, and monitor progress to align with the Maine Turnpike Authority's goals. This includes integrating teams across a broad range of service areas including highway design, traffic, bridge engineering, tolling, technology, planning and asset management; managing budgets and schedules; identifying risks and developing mitigation strategies; and preparing clear, actionable reports for client leadership. You will leverage HNTB's local expertise and national resources to deliver innovative, practical solutions that advance key client initiatives. The ideal candidate brings experience delivering transportation services, whether in highway design, traffic engineering, structural engineering, planning, or toll services-and is eager to apply that knowledge broadly to support diverse initiatives. Success in this position requires adaptability, strong client engagement skills, and the ability to think strategically while driving execution. This is more than a technical or management role. It is an opportunity to grow as a trusted advisor, leverage leadership skills, and make a lasting impact on the transportation network that serves Maine's communities. You will have the chance to shape solutions that matter, contribute to a legacy of excellence, and build a career with a firm that invests in your success.
