Full-service A/E/C firm delivering commercial, industrial, and infrastructure projects
Epstein is a 100+ year-old architecture, engineering, and construction firm with 51–200 employees headquartered in Chicago and operating from offices in New York, Raleigh, and Warsaw. The tech stack is CAD-centric (Revit, AutoCAD, MicroStation, BIM) paired with project-delivery tools (Procore, Bluebeam, Deltek Vantage), reflecting a traditional AEC workflow with minimal cloud modernization. Hiring velocity is accelerating with 22 roles posted in the last 30 days, skewed toward senior engineers (25 of 45 open roles) — a signal the firm is scaling delivery capacity for active construction and infrastructure projects, while cost management and geographic expansion remain operational friction points.
Epstein delivers architecture, engineering, and construction services for commercial, industrial, aviation, and public-sector clients. The firm specializes in sustainable building design, industrial manufacturing facilities, food-processing plants, and aviation infrastructure — notably the first new runway at O'Hare International Airport in 30 years. The company is employee-owned with a staff-run charitable foundation and maintains a portfolio spanning design through construction execution. Current projects include large construction efforts in Illinois, office expansion in Raleigh, bridge rehabilitation work, and food-processing master planning. The firm operates as a traditional full-service AEC practice with integrated architectural, civil/structural, MEP, and construction teams.
