Full Time $30.00 - $48.89 / hour

Job Overview

The Mannik & Smith Group, Inc. (MSG) is a people focused, award-winning, full-service consulting firm that offers a wide array of services including civil and geotechnical engineering, environmental consulting, planning, landscape architecture, agriculture, surveying and construction support. Our talented staff of more than 650+ professionals deliver integrated planning, design, engineering and construction solutions.

Due to MSG's continued growth, a new opening is available for a Civil Engineer to assist with our projects in Cleveland, OH! 

Design the Places Where Life Happens

MSG is growing, and we're looking for a Civil Engineer who wants to be in the room where projects actually come together — not just watching from the hallway. You'll work alongside senior staff, licensed engineers, and fellow junior engineers on commercial, residential, industrial, energy, and water/wastewater projects across the Midwest. One week you might be knee-deep in stormwater modeling; the next, coordinating with five different disciplines to keep a project on track. If you like variety (and a little organized chaos), you'll fit right in.

That investment in your growth is backed by more than good intentions: this role comes with a guaranteed seat in Blueprint, our new early career leadership program for engineers looking to grow beyond the typical entry-level experience. Over six months, you'll take part in a hands-on curriculum covering professional development, business acumen, and project delivery — including case studies, simulations, and role-play exercises — covering topics like project economics, communication, and leadership fundamentals. It all wraps up with an in-person capstone event where you'll present your work and map out your goals for the year ahead.

Your Future Starts With A Plan.

Key Responsibilities

  • Team up with senior staff and licensed engineers to design and prepare plans for a wide range of commercial, residential, industrial, energy, water/wastewater, and community projects
  • Coordinate across MSG's many specialties — Surveying, Geotechnical, Structural, Site Construction, and more — because good projects are never a solo act
  • Perform and check design calculations that keep every package accurate and buildable
  • Get involved early: feasibility documents, due diligence reports, zoning studies, stormwater modeling and design, cost estimates, and detailed design plans
  • Get out of the office occasionally for day-travel and fieldwork (planned in advance, no surprises)
  • Take on new tasks as they come — things move fast here, and that's part of the fun

Skills, Knowledge and Expertise

  • Bachelor's degree in Civil Engineering
  • 1–5 years of related experience relevant to Civil Site Design
  • Working knowledge of AutoCAD/Civil 3D
  • Plans to pursue FE/EIT certification soon, with your sights set on PE licensure down the road
  • Stormwater management experience not required, but would be recommended
  • Strong communication skills and comfort working in a busy, multi-faceted team environment
