Our Two Passions: Buildings and Clients

At Criterium-Schimnowski Engineers, we have two passions: analyzing buildings and serving our clients.

We use our technical knowledge and experience with buildings to solve problems for our clients. Our licensed, Professional Engineers and other professionals engage directly with our clients as well as with their buildings.  Client contact is an essential part of our practice, and it makes Criterium-Schimnowski Engineers a unique engineering company. Our passions and practices define our expectations for our employees.

What We Look For

Criterium-Schimnowski employees do not fit a narrow mold. They have a wide range of educational backgrounds and professional experience.

  • Passion. They share our passion for analyzing buildings and serving clients.
  • People skills. The ability to communicate clearly with clients and build long-term relationships with them is as important as professional training and experience.
