POSITION OVERVIEW

POSITION: Professional Engineer (PE) - Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS), U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP), and U.S. Department of Defense (DoD).

MUST BE A LICENSED PROFESSIONAL ENGINEER (PE) WITH A PE SEAL/STAMP

A Professional Engineer (PE) must be licensed by a state engineering board after meeting the education, experience, and examination requirements. This license allows the engineer to provide certain engineering services directly to the public and to take responsible charge of engineering work.

MUST POSSESS A PROFESSIONAL ENGINEER (PE) SEAL/STAMP

The PE seal or stamp (physical or digital) is issued to the licensed engineer. When a PE stamps and signs engineering documents, they certify that they prepared the work or supervised it and that, to the best of their professional judgment, it complies with applicable engineering standards, laws, and regulations. By affixing their seal, the PE assumes professional and legal responsibility for engineering work. If the work is found to be negligent, unsafe, or noncompliant, the engineer may face disciplinary action by the licensing board and potential legal liability.
