Kiewit is one of North America’s largest and most respected construction and engineering organizations. With its roots dating back to 1884, the employee-owned organization operates through a network of subsidiaries in the United States, Canada, and Mexico. Kiewit offers construction and engineering services in a variety of markets including transportation; oil, gas and chemical; power; building; marine; water/wastewater; industrial; and mining. The company traces its origins to a small, local masonry contracting business started by the Kiewit family, and it names its core values as people, integrity, excellence and stewardship.

Kiewit provides integrated engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) services that cover projects from feasibility and design through execution and commissioning. The company self-performs key parts of its construction work and operates through a network of decentralized offices. Acting as both developer and investor, Kiewit also takes single-source responsibility for financing, execution and long-term performance on public-private partnership (P3) and alternative delivery projects. Kiewit works in the nuclear industry as a direct-hire contractor. Kiewit has about 34,500 craft and staff employees and more than 4,000 employees across its engineering organization. Its career opportunities cover students and recent graduates, staff professionals and skilled craft workers.
