AKS Engineering & Forestry
AKS Engineering & Forestry is a consulting firm focused on developing infrastructure for public and private clients in the Pacific Northwest. We’ve enjoyed steady growth over the years and with growth comes opportunity. AKS is now a diverse company that provides civil engineering, surveying, hydrographic surveying, planning, landscape architecture, water resources, GIS, forestry/forest engineering, arboriculture, natural resources, and construction support services. Our focus is on finding the right solution for the client, not just the project, by building long-term relationships. With 85% of our work coming from repeat clients, we have an established, broad-based portfolio of clients including landowners, real-estate developers, architects, government agencies, public service providers, timberland owners, and others. We remain true to our values and diligently maintain our focus on quality.

Mission
At AKS, we design strong communities. We exceed all industry standards by providing innovative solutions and top-quality work serving the best interests of our employees, clients, and communities. We do things the right way, because it is the right thing to do.
Additional Culture Details
AKS is not your typical consulting firm. We’ve done away with the typical silos created by corporate profit centers and rigid departments. Instead, AKS is organized around multidisciplinary project teams that follow a project from conception through construction. We function as one company and feel more like a family. With a reputation built on personal responsibility, straight answers, practical solutions, and client service, AKS has become a highly sought-after place to work. Our offices are generally located outside of the hustle and bustle of downtown environments, closer to where our employees live. Our goal is to help each other grow and succeed and the best way to do that is by getting to know each other. We look for opportunities to share meals together every week, go on teambuilding adventures, make team site visits, and host events that bring our people and clients together. Whether you are just starting your career or wanting to take it to the next level, AKS is a great place to be.
