NorthStar Engineering NorthStar is Civil Engineering, Planning, and Surveying The Mission of NorthStar is to Develop People Who Enhance Our Communities.

Our team is then able to serve our customers with excellence and the result is quality projects that make our communities a better place to live, work and play. Keeping our focus on our people allows us to attract and retain the best team possible, a team that is committed to doing great work and doing it in a way that makes the projects and process more enjoyable for everyone. We are committed to hiring people who are excellent at what they do, but also are aligned with our values and excited about the mission we have. TEAMCENTRIC

We promote professional and personal learning with a goal of continuous improvement. We are always asking ourselves “is there a better way?” and looking for opportunities to grow and learn in our careers. We recognize that each one of us is both a teacher and a student, and seeing things from the perspective of another person is valuable to our learning. OWNERSHIP

Giving back helps keep our team connected to the communities we serve.

Throughout the year, the NorthStar team spends time supporting local organizations, participating in fundraisers, volunteering, and getting involved with causes that matter to them outside of work.

NorthStar also sets aside 4% of yearly profits for sponsorships and donations, providing in-kind professional services to organizations, and matching employee contributions dollar-for-dollar to child or community centered causes.

For us, being part of a community means more than working in it. It means showing up, getting involved, and helping make it stronger.

In July, Paradise Elementary School celebrated the grand opening of its newly rebuilt campus, marking the completion of the last of four schools destroyed in the 2018 Camp Fire.

NorthStar had the opportunity to be part of this important project, providing the initial topographic survey, site civil design, and wastewater design for the new campus.

Now, students and teachers are filling the classrooms, library, STEM spaces, and outdoor learning areas as a new school year begins.

We hope they have an amazing school year!

Earlier this month, the NorthStar team had the opportunity to celebrate an exciting milestone for our community: the ribbon cutting of the Enloe Health Gonzales Comprehensive Cancer Center!

NorthStar has been part of this project since design began in 2023, providing engineering and surveying services.

Now complete, the new center will bring cancer care services together in one location, giving patients throughout the North State greater access to comprehensive care close to home.

It’s incredibly rewarding to see a project move from plans and groundbreaking to a completed facility that will have such a meaningful impact.

Congratulations to Enloe Health and all of the project partners who helped bring this vision to life. We’re grateful to have been part of the journey.
