This is a highly experienced technical position. San Marcos will accept applications from licensed and unlicensed engineers. Licensure as a Professional Engineer (PE) in the State of California is desirable but not required.

Both private- and public-sector experience may be qualifying. Expertise in the review of construction plans and reports is highly desired. Experience in entitlement processing is highly desirable.

A typical way to obtain the knowledge and abilities would be: a bachelors degree from an accredited college or university with major coursework in civil engineering or a related field with six years of increasingly responsible civil engineering experience.

Alternative qualifying experience without a PE license and/or a related degree might be ten or more years of increasingly responsible experience in the private or public sector processing of construction drawings and entitlements including the ability to quickly learn the private sector role in the process.
