Foth is seeking a Lead Waterfront/Marine Structural Engineer & Project Manager to support and grow our Ports, Harbors, and Waterfront practice in Detroit, MI . This role will serve as a technical and project delivery leader on waterfront and marine infrastructure projects across the United States, including the Atlantic, Gulf and Pacific coasts as well as the Great Lakes while playing a key role in expanding Foth’s presence in the Great Lakes market.

The successful candidate will lead the planning, design, and delivery of waterfront, marine, and coastal infrastructure projects nationwide, including ports and terminals, piers, wharves, bulkheads, berthing and mooring systems, and shoreline protection systems. While the role offers exposure to projects across multiple regions of the country, the position will be anchored in Detroit, with a strong emphasis on local market growth, client development, and bolstering Foth in the region.
