The Port of Long Beach will host an “Engineering Open House” for engineering professionals and students to find out more about staff career positions offered at the nation’s second-busiest port on Saturday, March 9, from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m.
As it builds the Port of the Future, the Port of Long Beach’s Engineering Bureau is looking for established, up and coming, and student engineers who may want to join the Port’s team of in-house engineers who are re-imagining, re-making and maintaining the Port’s physical infrastructure.
Opportunities exist in the Port’s Program Management, Construction Management, Design and Project Controls engineering divisions.
