Engineering and environmental consulting across geotechnical, construction, and code compliance
NOVA is a 600+ person engineering and environmental firm operating 18 offices across the US, with roots in geotechnical engineering and environmental consulting expanding into forensics, building envelope assessment, and municipal code compliance. The hiring mix is heavily weighted toward engineering and construction roles across mid and senior levels, with active projects spanning materials testing, roadway inspections, and remediation — consistent with a project-driven services business scaling field and technical staff rather than product-led growth.
NOVA Engineering and Environmental provides specialized consulting and inspection services to design and construction clients, primarily across the Eastern United States. The firm's service lines include geotechnical engineering, environmental site assessments and remediation, construction materials testing and inspection, building envelope and roofing consulting, forensics and structural assessment, and code compliance support including municipal outsourcing and HUD inspection services. The team consists of registered engineers, geologists, ICC inspectors, building officials, NICET-certified technicians, and specialty consultants distributed across 18 offices. The tech stack—Deltek Vantage for project accounting, AutoCAD and Revit for design, GPS and field equipment—reflects a field-heavy, project-centric operation managing complex compliance and quality workflows.
