About The Role

The Associate Principal Engineer (APE) will be a crucial member of the DMA team. As this is an equity position where hard work, possibly lower pay, and a general lack of appreciation for the work you do are to be expected.

More importantly, you can drive these objectives to fruition. You’re curious and look for solutions, answers, and efficiencies, knowing you’re a critical strategic partner. You’re a rare type — you’re an engineer who’s tired of working through bureaucratic systems in a cubicle and wants to step into a role where your ideas and contributions are felt directly by the client. You know that green engineering is the future, and you’re ready to prove it.
