Build Your Career at the Intersection of Editing, Writing, Science, and Real-World Impact

At Terracon, we don’t just engineer solutions—we tell the story behind the data. Our geotechnical teams help communities design and build safe, resilient infrastructure by transforming complex subsurface information into clear, actionable recommendations.

  • Ensure clarity, consistency, and quality across project documentation, aligning with Terracon’s quality standards and client expectations
  • ·Translate technical concepts into clear language, improving readability and client understanding
  • Collaborate across teams (engineers, project managers, accounting, and field staff) to track project status, budgets, and schedules
  • Support proposal development and client engagement, including requests for proposals (RFPs), fee estimates, and change orders
  • Maintain project systems and databases ensuring accurate and timely information flow
  • Track project milestones, deliverables and billing processes in coordination with project teams
  • Support document control, quality compliance, and project delivery across multiple projects simultaneously
  • Assist with field and engineering coordination (e.g., location planning, drilling support documentation)
Requirements:

•    High school diploma and a minimum of 4 years’ related experience.
•    Bachelor’s degree in English, Communications, Journalism, or related field preferred
•    Exceptional written and verbal communication skills
•    Strong attention to detail and ability to edit for clarity, consistency, and accuracy
