About the company
The Boring Company was founded to solve the problem of soul-destroying traffic by building an underground network of tunnels. Today, we’re developing technology to increase tunneling speed and reduce costs by an order of magnitude—unlocking rapid, scalable transit in dense urban environments.
About the role
We are seeking a Senior Civil Engineer (PE) to support as a hands-on, technical individual contributor. This role owns civil engineering execution from concept through construction and works closely with field teams to deliver safe, buildable designs in a fast-paced environment.

Responsibilities:
•
Own and execute all civil engineering scope for local projects, including site development, permitting support, surveying coordination, utilities, grading, and drainage.
•
Serve as a hands-on technical lead responsible for end-to-end civil deliverables—from site investigation and design through construction support and closeout.
•
Act as Engineer of Record, reviewing and stamping civil design packages.
•
Coordinate closely with survey, utility locating, tunneling, and construction teams to ensure safe underground work and prevent utility conflicts.
•
Develop and maintain civil design standards, QA/QC processes, and best practices.
•
Collaborate daily with construction, mechanical, electrical, and tunneling teams to resolve field issues and keep projects moving.
•
Interface with local jurisdictions, permitting agencies, consultants, and contractors to support approvals and compliance.
