Founded in 1985 and part of the Michels Family of Companies, we bring engineering and construction expertise together to develop practical solutions from planning and design through construction.\nAbout the role\nAs an Associate Engineer in our trenchless division, you’ll help design and support underground infrastructure projects involving horizontal directional drilling (HDD), tunneling, auger boring, direct steerable pipe thrusting, and microtunneling. Our projects involve pipeline and utility crossings beneath rivers, highways, railroads, and other sensitive areas, serving a wide range of sectors, including municipal water and wastewater, renewable energy such as offshore wind farms, and oil and natural gas infrastructure. Working alongside experienced engineers, you’ll perform calculations and engineering analyses, evaluate subsurface conditions, develop trenchless designs, assess potential construction impact, and provide technical support during construction. You’ll also prepare construction drawings using AutoCAD as part of the design process. This role combines engineering analysis, design, report writing, and field experience. You’ll build on your knowledge of soil mechanics, geotechnical engineering, geology, and engineering mechanics while learning how ground conditions and construction methods influence design decisions.\nWhy Mi-Tech?\nDevelop specialized trenchless engineering skills while solving challenging design and construction problems.\nLearn from experienced engineers and recognized industry experts through mentorship and progressively challenging assignments.\nGain field experience, company-supported training, and experience toward PE licensure working under licensed engineers.\nJoin a family-owned organization backed by the engineering and construction resources of the Michels Family of Companies.\nWhat makes you a good fit?\nYou are curious, eager to learn, and enjoy applying engineering fundamentals to unfamiliar problems.\nYou take pride in accurate work and want to see how your solutions perform in the field.\nYou communicate clearly, work well with others, and take responsibility for your assignments.\nWhat it takes\nRequired qualifications\nBachelor’s degree in civil engineering or a related discipline from an ABET-accredited engineering program; recent graduates and candidates with zero to two years of experience are encouraged to apply.\nEI/EIT certification or eligibility to obtain certification.\nStrong engineering fundamentals and analytical skills, with an interest in geotechnical engineering and underground construction.\nAbility to interpret engineering drawings and technical information; proficiency with Excel and Word.\nWillingness to travel occasionally for meetings, site visits, and short-term construction assignments.\nValid driver’s license and acceptable driving record.\nPreferred qualifications\nCoursework, projects, or experience in geotechnical engineering, geology, foundation engineering, or construction engineering.\nInternship or work experience in civil infrastructure design or construction.\nFamiliarity with AutoCAD or Civil 3D.\nInterest in trenchless technologies, underground construction, or pipeline engineering.\nPrior trenchless engineering experience is not required. We value technical curiosity, a strong engineering foundation, and a willingness to learn.\nAA/EOE/M/W/Vet/Disability\nhttps://www.michels.us/website-user-privacy-policy/","description_format":"text","description_chars":3591,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":2,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":{"level":"bachelor","optional":false},"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[{"name":"United States","iso":"US","kind":"country"}],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Power Grid","Construction"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-10-12T23:41:42Z"},{"event":"close","at":"2026-10-19T16:47:07Z"},{"event":"reopen","at":"2026-10-23T20:21:58Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":90,"band":"hot","label":"Hiring now","p_open":1,"p_active":0.903,"p_room":1,"age_days":15,"expected_fill_days":76,"reasons":["conf:1","velocity","win:early","comp:junior,brand"],"computed_at":"2026-10-28T05:59:10Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/michels-corporation-associate-project-engineer-trenchless","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/michels-corporation-associate-project-engineer-trenchless.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-28T11:33:42Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":15204,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-29T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":678127},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=678127"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fmichels-corporation-associate-project-engineer-trenchless"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fmichels-corporation-associate-project-engineer-trenchless"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fmichels-corporation-associate-project-engineer-trenchless"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/michels-corporation-associate-project-engineer-trenchless\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fmichels-corporation-associate-project-engineer-trenchless"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":2401647}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":"michelscorporation.com","detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":2401647},"note":"people open to offers who fit this vacancy"}],"note":"The same data through MCP tools: https://alion.io/mcp/open needs no sign-in (compact searches, postings, people); https://alion.io/mcp with an Alion account has everything.
