Construction Engineering Jobs in Edison, NJ

A Construction Engineer is a key professional in the construction industry, responsible for designing, planning, managing, and overseeing construction projects. Their work can range from constructing buildings, bridges, and roads to managing water supply systems and sewage treatment plants.
