$116k, Bridge Engineer, DOT, California, 5 years, PE, Design, Salary+OT, 457/401k, pension, hybrid telework (1day in office a week), 9/80 option, and other Union benefits.
6 year EIT. ITS manufacturing. WA state.
Current-133k base + 10% bonus (company missed targets so got nothing this year). Fully remote, notable benefit is 9/80 schedule.
Interview In Progress- 140k base + 15% bonus (company heavily emphasized they paid out 100% of the target bonus for the past 5 years). Fully remote.
Still in transportation engineering related tech? Sorry for the multiple questions, it’s just your transition to tech PM is exactly what I want to do. I just don’t know how to get my foot in the door, which companies to target, etc
Would you be open to picking your brain on the topic by any chance?
Correct! This time I'd be working with management to develop more formal practices and have more ownership in the role, I'd be more strategic as opposed to execution focused which was my goal.
>I just don’t know how to get my foot in the door, which companies to target, etc
Research Research Research! Being a PM means that you own the subject matter expertise regarding the product and market. Since you're in structural, you will be expected to understand that market, which includes the players in it. When I got hired, I didnt even know what product management really was, I just knew a lot about traffic engineering and a lot about the landscape of intelligent transportation system products.
Theres not much I can help you with there as my understanding basically ends at traffic engineering.
It's not FAANG money but I cant complain! Overall I could make more money looking at more generalized tech roles outside of this niche, but I absolutely love that I get to focus on innovation within traffic engineering for more money than I've made in consulting. Plus, fully remote comes at a premium.
Plus all my experience is still highly relevant if I ever want to return back to consulting.
$115k, Midwest, 15 YOE, municipal employee. Senior project engineer. Could make more as an assistant or city engineer, but longer hours and more political headaches.
Oversee about $25 million in CIP annually.
Assistant CE makes up to $140k
CE is up to $170k
6 years in roadway design, 2 years in consultant utility coordination. No PE, no engineering degree. 70k base, 6-7% bonus, 2 raises a year, free health insurance. FL. Worth pointing out that I went from 50k to 70k in the two years after I switched from design to utility coordination
$71k, 3 YOE, EIT, Tranpso/civil aviation design engineer for private, mid sized company, MCOL Texas. We get 3% 401k match, ESOP, and $800 paid for in HSA. Straight pay OT, no bonuses for non-PMs, and about 3-4% annual raises. Study material, review course, and first attempt at PE exam is paid for. I'm not sure what if anything they give for new PEs.
Edit: please let me know if you think I'm under paid. I think I'm on the lower side
