Hello,

I am a 2020 graduate of the UW Civil Engineering program currently employed by Mackay Sposito.  I’d like to inform current students about a job opportunity we currently have for upcoming graduates.  You can find it here on our careers page listed as the “Civil Engineer” role in our Federal Way office.  http://www.mackaysposito.com/careers

While the job post does specify a preferred 5+ years of experience we have been interviewing upcoming 2022 graduates as well.  We are looking to hire at least two engineers, though I can see the possibility of a third hire.  I believe we’d be open to training anyone in either Civil or Environmental regardless of the coursework they’ve chosen to specialize in during their senior year.  We primarily work on the Tehaleh housing development down in Bonney Lake, you can expect to get experience designing detention/retention ponds, grading for house lots, designing roadway corridors, and storm/sewer networks.

I feel I’ve had a great experience and been mentored well by the team as a young inexperienced engineer. We offer a hybrid work environment with up to 2 days a week being work from home even for new hires. I’ve been asked to work overtime beyond my standard 40 hours once in my time here and that was only about 2 extra hours which was compensated at time and half pay. They also try to have company paid for lunches and events several times throughout each month.
