• 5+ years leading Caltrans or comparable DOT projects
• Strong background in roadway, paving, grading, underground utilities, or civil infrastructure
• Proven experience leading field crews and multiple Foremen
• Deep understanding of Caltrans specifications and inspection processes
• A collaborative leader who earns respect through technical expertise, integrity, and accountability—not ego
