About Simon Engineering

Engineering with Purpose. Delivering infrastructure that serves people and moves Communities Forward.

Simon Engineering is a Dallas-based, civil engineering firm specializing in the planning, design, and delivery of infrastructure that helps communities thrive. Since 2008, we have partnered with municipalities, transit agencies, school districts, transportation authorities, architects, and private developers to design projects that are functional, resilient, and built to last.

 

Our multidisciplinary team brings expertise across roadway design, drainage and flood control, water/wastewater systems, site development, and multimodal planning. Whether supporting a neighborhood reconstruction or a regional mobility project, we approach every assignment with technical excellence, innovation, and integrity.

Our Story

Built on Excellence. Rooted in Service. Committed to Community.

Simon Engineering began with a singular goal: to create infrastructure that supports long-term sustainability and enhances the quality of life for the communities we serve.

Our founder, Nikki Simon, PE, launched the firm after years of serving in design and engineering roles on major transportation and municipal projects. Her vision was to combine technical expertise with personalized partnership—providing the responsiveness and accessibility clients deserve without compromising quality or performance.

What started with a single design management contract has grown into a full-service engineering practice serving cities, transportation agencies, water districts, architects, developers, and contractors across six states.

Simon Engineering began with a simple belief: infrastructure should make life better for the people who rely on it.

What started with a single design management contract has grown into a full-service civil engineering firm serving cities, transportation agencies, water districts, architects, developers, and contractors throughout the South Central United States.

While our footprint has expanded, our approach has remained constant:

  • Communicate with clarity and transparency
  • Deliver work that reflects the highest standards of engineering discipline
Today, Simon Engineering continues to grow through long-standing client relationships, consistent performance, and a commitment to designing infrastructure that stands the test of time.
