The Swiss Army knife of the north

One Anchorage office covers a state twice the size of Texas, so this team does everything: a five-story building one week, a single-family home the next, roughly half in Anchorage and half in rural communities reachable only by plane. It is engineering with challenges few offices face, designing on permafrost, for major earthquakes, and for some of the highest wind loads in the country, and the team has particular, hands-on experience with structural inspections for seismic damage. The group is small and independent, experienced engineers working next to people fresh out of school, and they get out together often, a standing monthly lunch and a distinctly Alaskan summer tradition, from a 26 Glacier cruise out of Whittier to fishing charters and a hike up Alyeska.

opening quotation mark

Because Alaska is a small market, we have to be the Swiss Army knife. We do permafrost, earthquakes, high winds, everything the other offices never have to deal with. We’re a small office, but we’ve got a big company behind us, so we can take on any project that comes our way."

You might be a great fit if...

Anchorage fits engineers who want range, not a lane. In a bigger office you might design only concrete, or only wood; here you learn to do all of it, and you talk to clients and contractors from your first week rather than waiting years to earn it. The people who thrive are independent, flexible, and strong communicators, drawn to a slower pace, year-round outdoor life, and the kind of problems most engineers never get to solve.
