About the role
General Responsibilities
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.
We’re seeking a Project Coordinator who excels atwriting, editing, organization, and communication —someone who can bring clarity and precision to technical projects. This is an ideal role for candidates with an English degree or similar background who want to apply their skills in a dynamic engineering environment.
As a Project Coordinator, you will play a critical role in shaping how our work is communicated to clients, project teams, and the communities we serve. This is not a traditional engineering role—it’s a communication-centered position within a technical environment.
