Senior Project Engineer / Project Manager

Senior Project Engineer / Project Manager

Amundson Group is recruiting a Senior Project Engineer / Project Manager for a self-performing contractor ramping up a multi-year paving operation in Eastern Orange County, Florida. This is a direct-hire, full-time role managing a steady stream of milling and resurfacing work, not a one-off project. If you’ve run both field and office sides of paving operations and want autonomy to build something, this is worth a conversation.

What You Will Run

Day-to-day operations on milling and resurfacing work orders across Orange County under a 5-year county contract

Multiple active work orders simultaneously from a field office and staged yard in the Eastern Orlando market

Scheduling, resources, and subcontractor coordination for paving operations

Progress tracking and deliverables management through notice-to-proceed and work order phases

Primary on-site point of contact bridging field execution and office-side project management

What It Takes

Hands-on asphalt and paving operations experience, specifically milling and resurfacing

Background in both field superintendent and project management or engineering functions, someone who has done both sides

Ability to operate independently and run the market without micromanagement

Comfort working out of a trailer and field office environment

Strong track record of reliability and accountability

Prior county or DOT roadway and paving contract experience is a strong plus

Comp and Timeline

Salary range: 85k to 130k depending on background and title level. Full-time, direct hire. Hybrid schedule based out of Eastern Orange County field office. Contract work begins mid-December 2026 with a 5-year runway. Interviews happening within the next 30 days.
