Welcome toJ2 EngineersThe J2 motto, Unlimited Potential, Different by Design, sets the stage for how we achieve excellence. Since our founding in 2007, J2 has made a big deal out of being small. We are considerably larger since we began – we are a dynamic group of 55+ – but maintain the same ideals since our first days.

J2 focuses on fostering a positive work environment that sparks mentorship,

cooperation, and collaboration. Our leadership motivates our staff to tap into their

potential, and they encourage professional and personal growth. We take pride in

our values and concentrate on building strong relationships and standing out in the

engineering community. We do this by staying true to our principles, focusing on

client goals, and delivering unparalleled service. J2 clients trust us with their most

complicated and innovative projects, and they know and respect J2 leadership and

staff alike. Every team member is vital to project and company success.

Leadership atJ2 EngineersLeadership at J2 lives and breathes the J2 vision and mission “Unlimited Potential, Different by Design.” Everything we do is purposely different – from business transparency with our staff and incorporating team members into the strategic plan to recognizing colleagues for good work and creating a career path for everyone. J2 maintains an “all-in” mentality. Founders, principals, leaders, and staff alike all contribute to the firm’s success. Leadership works on billable projects, shares technical expertise, and develops staff.

Leadership also actively seeks opportunities to build on and improve the culture at J2. We

do this by genuinely listening to employees and back this up with an annual, anonymous

employee survey. This check-in serves as a guide to the pulse of the company. This holistic

understanding of how we are doing alongside our employees’ wants, needs, goals, and

feedback impacts improvements within the company. Survey results are analyzed and

addressed in our staff annual meeting, policy changes, and strategic plan updates.
