Life Here

Warm, low-key, and in it together

DCI's Wayne office sits in the Philadelphia suburbs near King of Prussia, alongside its sister office in Wilmington. It's a versatile structural practice, residential, offices, schools, and medical buildings, across wood, steel, and concrete, including a strong run of work at Villanova University. The team of engineers, drafters, BIM specialists, and project managers is close-knit and easygoing, and every Thursday they order lunch and gather just to catch up. The location gives everyone options too, an easy shot into Philadelphia one direction, open country and even a ski hill the other.

You might be a great fit if...

Wayne fits a self-starter who takes initiative but is never afraid to ask questions, and who welcomes direct, constructive feedback. It's a collaborative, no-ego team where people speak plainly and pitch in for each other, so a roll-up-your-sleeves attitude goes a long way. Outside the office, the Philadelphia suburbs offer a bit of everything: a walkable 'mini-city' energy around King of Prussia, quick access to Center City and its museums, and open space and skiing just the other direction.
