Josh Bourgouin recently joined R&M as a Staff Engineer in the firm’s Site Development Group. In this position, Josh will assist with design of site development projects throughout Alaska. This includes site layout, vehicle and pedestrian access, ADA access, driveways and parking, signing and striping, grading and drainage, stormwater analysis and management, and water and sewer utility services connections.
“Josh came to R&M with a solid site development background and was able to pick up some current projects and advance them efficiently. He quickly became a team player, helping to get several projects delivered on time to our clients. In his first week, he participated in a site visit to King Salmon, where he impressed the client and team members. Josh is a reliable self-starter who often surprises me with how quickly accomplishes tasks with a high level of quality. In his short time here, he has made numerous friends at R&M and I am proud to have him as a team member.”
Chris Black, PE, CESCL – Group Manager of Site Development
Josh has two years of engineering experience. A recent transfer to Alaska, he comes to R&M from Houston, Texas where he worked on residential site development projects. This included designing and creating construction plans for multi-acre single family home developments. Josh’s experience includes lot and street layouts, grading, storm drainage design, detention basin design, roadway designs, storm calculations, construction cost estimates and utility designs. He is skilled in the use of Civil 3D and excels in communicating with clients and agencies.
“I chose R&M based on recommendations from family and friends, as well as an interest in the type of work done at R&M. It has also given me the opportunity to move to Alaska, which has always been a dream of mine!”
