Baird & Associates is a 40-year-old coastal and marine engineering firm running a heavy Autodesk stack (Revit, Civil 3D, Navisworks, Bluebeam) alongside Python and MATLAB for hydraulic and hydrologic analysis. Active hiring is skewed heavily toward senior engineers (9 of 10 roles), paired with one leadership sales position—a pattern suggesting either deep project complexity requiring experienced hands or a shift toward systemizing client acquisition. Current projects span underkeel clearance studies, dynamic mooring analysis, and custom web applications, while pain points cluster around model coordination and automation of manual workflows, indicating the firm is transitioning from pure CAD delivery toward data-driven infrastructure services.
