Sobre este puesto de 2027 Summer Intern - Civil Engineering, Transportation (Rail) en Tkda

Tkda · Presencial · Riverside, California
*Due to the nature of projected responsibilities associated with this opportunity, which may require the operation of a motorized vehicle to conduct business on behalf of TKDA, candidates must be at least 21 years of age as of May 28, 2027, to be selected for further consideration.
 
If you are an undergraduate pursuing a bachelor’s degree in civil engineering with a strong interest in transportation, and more specifically within the railroad and/or mass transit sector, then we have an exciting opportunity for you to join our team this upcoming summer in Riverside, California! 
 
As a member of our Rail team, you will work alongside civil engineers and technicians and become engaged in a variety of active projects for site planning, roadway, utility, parking lot, grading and drainage, storm water management, and track design projects. Our goal will be to expose you to the various stages of a project life cycle from conception through construction so you have a better understanding of the work we do, how we do it, and more importantly, what it would be like to be an engineering consultant. 
 
Throughout your internship, you will have the opportunity to contribute to the development of preliminary and final designs using AutoCAD and Civil 3D, and frequently perform calculations for project dimensions and elevations as well as earthwork, utilities, and track quantities. You will also assist with preliminary site assessments and surveys and construction administration responsibilities by working closely with other team members to provide information and feedback on the construction status of projects and any potential construction or design-related challenges that may arise.
 
The ideal candidate would be available to work 40 hours per week with occasional overtime throughout the summer of 2027 from mid-May through mid-August. This position would primarily work from our office in Riverside or an assigned project site; however, there may be instances in which this position would be provided with flexible / hybrid work arrangements.
