<div><h3 class="jobSectionHeader">Who is W-Trans?</h3> 


W-Trans provides traffic engineering and transportation planning services throughout California with an emphasis on the San Francisco Bay Area and Northern California.

We currently have offices in Santa Rosa (Sonoma County) and downtown Oakland, with plans to open an office in Sacramento in 2026. We specialize in projects

that create more livable streets and sustainable transportation systems that emphasize a fully multi-modal approach. W-Trans continues to serve existing and new clients in the Bay Area

and increasingly works on projects in the Central Valley and Sacramento. We particularly welcome the opportunity to chat with prospective candidates who are currently located

in Northern California or who would like to relocate to the region. 

<h3 class="jobSectionHeader">
Work on progressive transportation projects and experience true work-life balance</h3> 


W-Trans is seeking a Senior Transportation Engineer or Planner that is ready to work on a diverse range of projects for our expanding client base.

Work-life balance isn&rsquo;t just a cliche at W-Trans&hellip; it&rsquo;s a fundamental part of who we are. 


What does balancing your professional and personal lifestyle mean? The answer is different for everyone.

For many W-Trans employees, it means actually working a 40-hour work week on average. It means having the flexibility to work remotely three days a week if you choose,

and the ability to work flexible hours that fit your lifestyle and family needs, such as a &ldquo;9/80&rdquo; schedule with every other Friday off. It means producing great work

that you find professionally fulfilling, having a passion for finding sustainable transportation solutions to complex problems and perhaps looking at transportation

differently than our profession did in the past. 

<h3 class="jobSectionHeader">
About the Role</h3> 


W-Trans is seeking a Transportation Impact Analysis (TIA) Practice Leader who would be based in the SF Bay Area or Sacramento. 


The successful candidate will win and manage TIA projects as a Senior Engineer/Planner. W-Trans has a long history of traffic operations and transportation impact analysis work

and values an approach that marries technical expertise with creative and nuanced solutions. This person likely enjoys the opportunity to bring all their skills to their job

&ndash; organizational skills for managing projects, engineering expertise, communication skills to build consensus, and an outlet for their curiosity and creativity to both understand

and solve tangible issues in our communities&rsquo; transportation systems. This position involves interacting with clients, teaming partners, and the public, making important the ability

to engage in technical discussions, manage relationships, and effectively explain challenges and alternatives to stakeholders in non-technical terms. Another aspect of this position

is the mentorship of W-Trans staff. We have competent engineers and planners with experience contributing to and managing TIA projects, and it is important to W-Trans

to support their continued growth and development as future stewards of transportation networks that are accessible for all users.
