Developing talent, inside and out. This summer, seven SSOE interns from our Toledo office joined Summer in the City, a program by the Toledo Regional Chamber of Commerce that blends professional development with community connection. Hearing directly from local leaders and exploring the region’s culture, they gained exposure to the kind of real-world networking and community engagement that elevates early careers. It’s just one of the ways we’re helping the next generation of talent make their mark—at SSOE and beyond. #chooseSSOE
Surveying the shift: Senior Account Executive Mark A. Hubbs was featured in Food Engineering Magazine’s 48th Annual Plant Construction Survey. With 15+ years of leadership in food / beverage and heavy industrial, Mark exemplifies the expertise behind SSOE's success. His insights reflect industry trends in automation, efficiency, and alternative proteins amid economic and regulatory challenges. As facility needs evolve, manufacturers are turning to AEC firms like SSOE for smart, sustainable solutions that balance innovation with cost-conscious strategies.
SSOE is honored to announce the Nathan Czerniejewski SSOE Memorial Scholarship in partnership with The University of Toledo College of Engineering. Over the next five years, this annual award will support civil engineering students from Greater Toledo and provide each recipient a co-op interview with SSOE—just as Nate began his career. SSOE mourned the loss of Nate Czerniejewski, a University of Toledo graduate and beloved SSOE leader, in March of this year. This scholarship ensures his legacy will continue to inspire future engineers. CEO, Vince DiPofi, PE, quoted within. #PressRelease
