Careers at JPR

Great Work Happens When You Love Where You Work.

We design and engineer projects that shape communities, improve infrastructure, and bring big ideas to life — and we have a great time doing it.

At JPR, you’ll find talented architects, engineers, and specialists who deliver exceptional results for our clients while keeping the atmosphere human, approachable, and collaborative. We believe the best work happens when people trust each other — so yes, you might find us swapping playlists on a Friday afternoon, debating who makes the best chili, or raising a glass after hitting a big deadline. But when it’s time to deliver, we bring the same focus and skill that has earned us repeat clients, award-winning projects, and a reputation for doing things right.

Our Culture

We’re a close-knit team moving in the same direction, with the freedom to explore our own path to get there.

Here’s what you can expect when you join us:

  • A relaxed, respectful environment where people enjoy what they do and who they work with.
  • Trust from day one – you’ll have autonomy and support, not micromanagement.
  • An open door for new ideas – if you see a better way to do something, try it.
  • A little fun along the way – Friday playlists, chili cook-offs, impromptu lunches, and the occasional friendly competition.
We take our work seriously —
ourselves, not so much.
