Where bold ideas meet fearless builders

Power is where people bring what’s most complex—because this is where it gets solved. For more than 100 years, rooted in Chicago and building across the country, we’ve taken on ambitious projects, intricate sites, and ideas that demand dynamic thinking. Our teams thrive in environments where the work is sophisticated, the expectations are high, and the opportunity to create meaningful impact is real.

People come to Power to stretch their skills, grow their careers, and be part of a culture built on curiosity, collaboration, and trust. Here, technical depth meets human connection, and complexity becomes momentum—fueling the buildings we deliver and the people who deliver them.

No matter the project, our mindset stays the same: embrace the opportunity, exceed the expectation.
