About the job

A self-performing contractor is hiring a Quality Control Manager to lead QC operations on an active rail infrastructure project in the Dallas-Fort Worth area. This is a salaried, long-term placement with a clear runway to the next project. If you have 8+ years running QC programs on bridge and DOT work, this is your role.

What You Will Run

Develop, implement, and manage the Quality Control program from project start through closeout

Oversee QC inspections and documentation across all construction phases, including four bridge structures

Ensure compliance with project specifications, DOT standards, and railroad authority requirements

Coordinate with project management, field superintendents, and client representatives on QC matters

Maintain QC records, reports, and submittals per contract requirements

Lead QC team members and support subcontractor quality processes

What It Takes

8+ years of quality control experience in heavy civil and infrastructure construction

4+ years actively running a QC program

Bridge experience required (this project includes four bridges)

DOT project experience required

Rail or railroad experience strongly preferred

Local to Dallas-Fort Worth (no relocation assistance available)

We also consider candidates with 20+ years of experience seeking a stable salaried role. Wastewater or DOT-adjacent infrastructure experience may qualify if paired with strong bridge QC background.

Comp and Schedule

Salary: $110,000 to $121,250 per year, commensurate with experience

Primarily day shift; occasional nights possible (very infrequent)

Project duration: approximately 12 to 18 months, with intent to place on next project thereafter

Visa sponsorship is not available. Commercial-only background without civil, DOT, or rail experience is not a fit for this role.
