What Our Team Has to Say

Hear directly from our team members about what it’s like to work at Ulteig, from career growth to work-life balance and everything in between.

"Since joining Ulteig, I’ve been inspired by how much space there is to learn and grow. This is a place where curiosity is encouraged. One of the things I value most is how committed we are to investing in people through upskilling, mentorship, and continuous learning. I’ve seen that come to life, like when our software and civil engineers teamed up to integrate computer vision and large language models into their workflows. That kind of cross-disciplinary collaboration really highlighted how open Ulteig is to finding smart efficiencies so teams can focus on the work that challenges and excites them; the kind of projects that push boundaries, spark creativity, and make an impact."

Stephanie K.

AI Program Manager

"From my very first interview at Ulteig I felt it—this was a culture I wanted to be part of. The conversation was genuine, the energy was collaborative and fun, and the values aligned with what I was looking for. That feeling has only grown stronger over time.

What really sets this company apart is the camaraderie within my teams. Whether we're tackling complex initiatives or navigating day-to-day priorities, we show up for each other with trust, creativity, and support. Together, we've achieved so much—and had fun doing it. Add to that a workplace that champions flexibility, values connection, and empowers employees to bring their best selves to work—this is what a strong, people-first culture looks like."

Bambi V.

Executive Assistant

"Ulteig has not only supported my professional growth within the team and the company, but has also made a positive impact on my personal life. The organization has opened so many doors for my career, and with the guidance of my leadership and manager, I’ve been able to develop the skills needed to advance. The flexibility to maintain a healthy work-life balance has been incredible. I’m not only able to thrive in my career but also be present for my children when they need me — and that means everything."

Hissis G.

Engineering Supervisor - Substation

"The most important aspect of my life is being present for my family, for myself, and for the moments that truly matter. Ulteig plays a key role in supporting this balance by fostering a work environment that values both professional excellence and personal fulfillment. Its culture and values empower me to engage in meaningful work while maintaining the flexibility to invest in my family and my own well-being. This harmony allows me to bring my best self to every aspect of my life, both at work and at home."

Tina R.

Commercial Counsel

"I had worked for almost 17 years as structural engineering, primarily designing substation structures. I was looking for something different to do, yet would still allow me put those years of knowledge to good use. I found a perfect fit in the Proposal Development Team. Proposals sit in a unique niche that bridges the technical and sales & marketing functions of Ulteig."

Ahmed G.

Technical Manager - Substation

"My wife and I chose to move to Boise, ID for the mountains, the weather and the lifestyle in general. I wasn’t sure if I would be able to keep my job with Ulteig, but I ended up getting the approval. I appreciate the risk Ulteig took to allow me to move somewhere because I simply wanted to."

Awards & Recognition

Employee Owners Make a Difference

Ulteig’s team takes great pride in being part of an employee-owned company. That’s because they know that their contributions to the success of the company benefit not only their clients, but their co-workers and themselves. They look at their work and the decisions they make on a day-to-day basis a little bit differently. They connect their work to the value they are creating for each other. When the stock price is announced in the summer of each year, employees are really excited, because they know that they are collectively sharing in the success that they have created.

Employee owners at Ulteig have a strong voice. They are constantly sharing their opinions through surveys, listening sessions, regular town hall meetings and other mechanisms. Speaking and being heard are part of our culture, and we are stronger because of it!
