Project Designer - Land Development

Build More Than Sites. Build Communities.

This is not a traditional land development engineering role.

As a Project Designer at Inspire Engineering
, you will be the technical engine behind a mission-driven effort to deliver high-quality, affordable housing communities. Your grading plans, drainage systems, roadway layouts, and utility designs won’t just support development projects, they will help families move into safe, stable homes.

You will take ownership of the engineering design for entire residential communities, navigate complex municipal approvals, and ensure your designs are constructable, efficient, and defensible. If you want your engineering expertise to directly impact lives, this is that opportunity.

Why This Is a True Career Move

Purpose With Tangible Impact -Your work directly supports Prime Craftsman Homes and its nonprofit partners in building hundreds of affordable homes. Every drainage calculation and utility plan becomes part of a neighborhood that restores stability and dignity to families.

Accelerated Technical Growth -You won’t be stuck producing redlines. You’ll lead full-site designs, master permitting, refine hydrologic modeling, and expand your Civil 3D expertise, with a clear path toward senior technical leadership or project management.

Real Ownership
-You will manage significant portions of projects independently, becoming a trusted technical leader within a growing, mission-driven development model.

See What You Design Get Built -From raw land to finished neighborhood, you’ll experience the full lifecycle of your work.

What You’ll Own

Within your first year, you’ll be trusted to:

• Lead technical site design for affordable housing communities
• Develop grading, drainage, roadway, and utility plans
• Manage municipal permitting and subdivision approvals
• Perform hydrologic and hydraulic modeling
• Coordinate survey, environmental, and planning consultants
• Reduce field conflicts by designing highly constructable plans

This is hands-on, high-responsibility engineering with visible outcomes.

What Success Looks Like

You thrive if you:

• Think like a contractor while designing like an engineer
• Take pride in clean, defensible, buildable plans
• Enjoy navigating municipal codes and solving complex site challenges
• Want your technical discipline tied to meaningful social impact

This environment rewards proactive engineers who see challenges as problems to solve, not obstacles to avoid.

• Collaborative, high-accountability team culture
• Direct access to leadership and decision-makers
• In-office with strong teamwork and visibility
• Long-term commitment to scaling affordable housing solutions

Is This the Move That Elevates Your Career?

If you are:

• A licensed or license-track civil engineer
• Experienced in land development and Civil 3D
• Motivated by ownership and community impact
• Ready to lead technical design, not just support it

Then this role offers more than a job, it offers responsibility, purpose, and accelerated growth.

Apply your engineering expertise to projects that build affordable communities, restore hope, and create lasting impact.
