The selected candidate will gain well-rounded experience by working both in the field and in the office under the guidance of experienced surveying professionals.

    This is more than a field crew position. We are looking for someone who wants to build a long-term career in land surveying, embrace emerging technology, and grow into a future leadership role within our survey department. A key growth opportunity for this position will be taking ownership of developing Mindel Scott’s in-house drone surveying program.

    • Assist with boundary resolution, survey calculations, legal descriptions, and the preparation of record plats, minor plats, easement plats, ALTA/NSPS surveys, and other survey documents
    • Conduct deed, plat, property, and courthouse research
    • Coordinate with in-house surveyors, engineers, planners, landscape architects, utility designers, and CAD technicians
    • Help develop and lead our drone surveying program, including evaluating equipment and software, establishing workflows, collecting and processing drone data, and sharing knowledge with the team
    • Research and help implement new technology and workflows that improve accuracy, efficiency, safety, and project capabilities

    What We’re Looking For

    • Completed or nearing completion of a degree or educational program that supports eligibility for LSIT certification and professional land surveyor licensure
    • Interest in obtaining LSIT certification and ultimately becoming a licensed Professional Land Surveyor
    • Strong interest in both field and office surveying
    • Previous surveying, fieldwork, internship, AutoCAD, or Civil 3D experience is preferred but not required
    • Interest in drone surveying and willingness to obtain an FAA Part 107 Remote Pilot Certificate; related experience is preferred but not required
    • Comfort learning new technology, developing proficiency, and sharing that knowledge with others
    • Strong attention to detail, problem-solving skills, and commitment to producing accurate, high-quality work
    • Self-motivated, reliable, punctual, and willing to take ownership of assigned responsibilities
    • Strong written and verbal communication skills
    • Ability to perform physical fieldwork and work outdoors in varying weather and site conditions
    • Valid driver’s license

    Professional Growth

    This position provides the opportunity to build the field and office experience needed to pursue LSIT certification and professional licensure. As the successful candidate’s knowledge and responsibilities grow, additional opportunities may include advancing the department’s technology, developing our drone surveying capabilities, mentoring others, managing survey projects, and growing into a leadership role within the survey group.
