A&E Engineering, Inc. was founded in 1998, with a focus on providing full-service engineering services in mechanical, structural, civil and environmental engineering.
While many engineering firms pride themselves on growth in staff, A&E prefers to rely on proven professionals who can meet the firm’s central standard – “Exceed Expectations.” As a result, A&E has developed into an engineering firm that is large enough to handle even the most demanding scope of work, while remaining a cohesive team that excels in working collaboratively and closely with its clients.
