Sr Technical Writer/Editor
HNTB Corporation, Minneapolis, MN, United States
What We're Looking For
At HNTB, you can create a career that is meaningful to you while building communities that matter to all of us. For more than a century, we have been delivering solutions for some of the largest, most complex infrastructure projects across the country. With our historic growth, it is an exciting time to join our team of employee-owners.
This opportunity entails working directly with technical staff as part of a team to write and develop content for alternative delivery proposals. Alternative delivery includes project types such as design‑build (DB), progressive design‑build (PDB), modified progressive design‑build (MPDB), construction manager general contractor (CMGC), and public‑private‑partnerships (P3). The role also involves coordinating with engineers and other technical staff to complete editing, formatting, and quality reviews to ensure consistency in written project communication materials. You will use a variety of word‑processing editing tools to develop, edit, and maintain Requests for Qualifications (RFQs), Requests for Proposals (RFPs), and addenda for procurement of designer/contractor teams to complete infrastructure projects that may comprise transit, tunnel, airport, rail, highway, bridge, and combinations of these elements. A technical engineering background is not required but is desirable.
Other job duties could include assisting with the review or creation of reports, environmental documents, and marketing documents.
What You’ll Do
Work with Division Marketing and technical staff to write, format and edit content for written materials. Engage with pursuit teams in the development of win themes, differentiating messaging, and compelling technical approaches for both proposals and presentations.
Edit and format content written by others, ensuring consistency in writing style and approach throughout various documents, often serving as proposal reviewer and final independent quality check as needed.
Gather information through research, statistical reports, and interviews with technical staff.
May serve as a mentor to other marketing staff in sharpening writing skills.
May facilitate writing workshops.
Perform other duties as assigned.
What You’ll Need
Bachelor’s degree in Technical, Communications, or related field and five years of relevant experience.
What We Prefer
Documents to be prepared can be large, consisting of up to four volumes with some volumes having up to 25 sections, each covering a different technical discipline such as drainage, bridges, geotechnical, traffic, project management, etc. The successful applicant will be organized, have an open personality, be able to work virtually with staff around the country, and have excellent verbal communication skills. Having a technical civil engineering background is not required but is desirable.
