We’re a team of engineers, architects, planners, and professionals committed to solving problems through design. Since Petersen Engineering’s founding in 1992, we’ve collaborated with and served diverse communities through our work, our philanthropy, and our community involvement. We know that different ideas, perspectives, and backgrounds create a stronger, more creative team and better outcomes for our clients.
Our clients come to us with big opportunities, first-of-a-kind challenges, hard deadlines, and limited budgets. This is where we thrive. We build lasting relationships and friendships with business partners because we consistently deliver positive results, and we aspire to recruit and retain a team that reflects the diversity of the communities we serve.
Petersen Engineering has recently renewed as a JUST-certified firm. The JUST label is a voluntary program that allows an organization to measure and define its commitment to equity and social justice. The certification process required us to take an in-depth and honest look at our operation at all levels, from employee culture to financial investment, to assess our commitment to social justice in the workplace. It has helped us confirm where we are on track and has pushed us to do better in some areas. It has also provided us with a framework the tools to take concrete action, along with a group of peers who support us and hold us accountable to do better.
