Not finding reliable engineering talent for your projects when you need it? After 20 years running his AEC firm, Brian Sullivan knows that problem all too well — and he’s now set out to tackle it from a completely different angle. 👇

In this episode, Brian talks about his journey from starting, scaling, and selling his own civil engineering firm to building an engineering tech company called GigBench that puts an end to this problem once and for all.

The idea? 🤔

Be the place where firms can find vetted, experienced professionals, without having to make a full-time hire…while engineers can find more flexible engineering work, without having to leave their day job.

Whether you’re thinking about freelancing as a civil engineer yourself or need freelance engineering work for your company, you need to sign up for GigBench — and Brian spills the beans on everything you need to know about it.

So, go check it out wherever you get your podcasts to hear more about what he’s building with GigBench, how it works, and how you can take advantage of it. 😉
