Roadway Engineer Jobs in Colorado: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a roadway engineer in Colorado?
You become a roadway engineer in Colorado by earning a bachelor's degree in civil engineering and obtaining licensure through the Colorado State Board of Licensure for Architects, Professional Engineers, Professional Land Surveyors, and Geologists. Most candidates first pass the Fundamentals of Engineering exam to become an Engineer in Training, then gain qualifying experience before sitting for the Principles and Practice of Engineering exam to earn a Professional Engineer license recognized in Colorado.
How much do roadway engineers make in Colorado?
Roadway engineers in Colorado earn a median of about $101,420 a year, based on May 2025 Bureau of Labor Statistics wage data, ranging from around $76,810 for the lowest 10% to over $165,230 for the top 10%. Pay rises with experience, specialty, and employer.
Which companies hire roadway engineers in Colorado?
Colorado roadway engineer roles are posted by Consor, Kiewit, and HDR and others right now, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. Colorado's robust CDOT project pipeline and ongoing Front Range urbanization keep large engineering consulting firms and public agencies posting regularly throughout the year.
Which Colorado cities have the most roadway engineer jobs?
Denver, Lone Tree, and Grand Junction account for the most roadway engineer openings in Colorado. Denver's concentration of CDOT offices, regional planning agencies, and major engineering consultancies drives the bulk of demand, while Colorado Springs and Fort Collins generate steady openings tied to municipal growth projects, university-area infrastructure upgrades, and military installation support contracts in those metro areas.
Are there remote roadway engineer jobs in Colorado?
Yes, but they're rare. Roadway engineering is inherently site-dependent, requiring field visits, plan reviews, and coordination with public agencies that are difficult to do fully remotely. About 60% of roadway engineer openings tied to Colorado are remote or hybrid as of November 2026, and those positions typically involve design work, plan production, or project management tasks that can be handled off-site between required in-person engagements.
How can I get hired as a roadway engineer in Colorado with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is a civil engineering internship or entry-level engineer-in-training role at a Colorado consulting firm or CDOT district office, where new graduates work under licensed PEs to build qualifying experience toward licensure. Firms like HDR and WSP recruit directly from Colorado State University, the University of Colorado, and Colorado School of Mines. Adjacent roles in construction inspection, CAD drafting, or transportation planning also open doors, and holding an active EIT registration gives candidates a concrete edge in competitive applicant pools.
Where can I find and apply to roadway engineer jobs in Colorado?
You can find and apply to roadway engineer jobs in Colorado on Migrate Mate, which lists current Colorado openings updated in real time. Search the listings for roles that match your experience level and specialization, then apply directly to the ones that fit. No signup is required to see the openings.
