No option for city/local government? And no option for public or private utility?

 
Independent Contractor as of now, primarily working for a single engineering firm on the East coast of Florida. That firm does consulting (small to large residential and commercial site plans, permitting, etc.)

Expect that I will be doing more self (sole proprieter) type work this year until I get enough work to justify incorporation and insurance type things.

 
Federal, DoD. I do mostly emergency power- generators & UPS systems. Some base power plants, but mostly buildings.

 
I work for a university in a research capacity...for about the next month. Then another colleague and I are starting a consulting/research/materials testing firm...

Mining and geological consulting - resource evaluation, geologic modeling, surface and underground mine design - mainly in aggregates and industrial minerals.

 
I am Traffic Engineer for a local municipality, before then a Traffic Engineer for NCDOT

 
"state" environmental regulator - for a US island territory. Stormwater, wastewater, marine water, groundwater, wetlands, solid waste, and any number of odd things that they throw my way.

Before that, construction management on a large seaport project, and some civil design work thrown in here and there.

Before that, oilfield well logging - downhole geological measurements, cased hole mechanical services (like cement job evaluations and explosive perforating).

 
I work for myself.  Have a few people that I sub too.  Structural engineering.
I have a feeling I'm gonna be trying to pick your brain over the next few months. :D Structural design has always appealed to me, I've ordered one test on wood structure design and I can't wait until it arrives. For some reason, passing the PE (ME) has really given me a thirst for more engineering knowledge. :true:

Sorry, text above, not test. :D
