2026 BoiseCEI & inspection hiring

Heading into 2026, Boise's market is shaped by federally funded highway and bridge programs and a shortage of certification-verified field staff. NICET- and NBIS-certified inspectors who can deliver on schedule-critical DOT programs remain in short supply.

Pay for these roles moves with local cost of labor and project mix, so we publish ranges nationally rather than implying a Boise-specific figure we have not measured. See the national CEI & inspection compensation ranges, or ask us what we are seeing in Boise right now.
