General contractor serving healthcare, advanced industries, and mission-critical infrastructure
JE Dunn is a century-old, employee-owned general contractor operating 26 offices across 17 states, positioned as the sixth-largest domestic player. The stack is heavy on Autodesk (Revit, BIM 360, Construction Cloud, AutoCAD, Navisworks) and Adobe creative tools, with active adoption of Last Planner System and Kanban — signaling a shift toward lean project delivery and visual workflow management. Hiring is heavily skewed toward construction trades (1,101 roles) relative to engineering and design, reflecting a traditional GC model scaling field execution rather than product or software engineering.
Notable leadership hires: Project Director, Talent Development Director, Safety Director
