About the role

Toole Design Group in Boston, MA is looking to hire an experienced and talented full-time Senior Multimodal Engineer.

Are you looking for the opportunity to work on challenging multimodal projects that make communities more livable? Do you love managing projects and building industry relationships? If so, please consider joining our Boston team.

This senior engineering position, with a focus on sidewalk, bikeway, and Complete Streets design, earns a competitive salary and great benefits, including medical, dental, vision, life insurance, disability, a health savings account (HSA), a flexible spending account (FSA), and all staff start with at least 24 days PTO. We practice what we preach and ensure that our employees also have access to transportation by providing them with financial incentives to bike, walk, or use transit for a better quality of life.
