At MKEC, it's all about our team. We're passionate about our mission of providing superior engineering solutions that are responsive to our clients’ needs. Since our start in 1982, our growth has been fueled by respect for each other and a shared commitment to achieving our goals.

We’re looking for a Part-Time Construction Inspector to join our team at our Wichita location. This individual will assist with a variety of projects from any of our civil engineering service areas: Land Development, Public Works, Transportation, and Industrial/Energy.

This position operates on a project-by-project schedule with variable hours throughout the year rather than a steady weekly schedule. During active construction periods, work will probably be full-time (30–40+ hours per week over 5–6 days), followed by multi-week or multi-month gaps between projects with minimal to no hours.
