​
DT General Engineering Construction is the product of Derek Todd's life-long love for earthwork and the construction industry. The son of a custom home builder and building inspector, Derek was exposed to many aspects of construction from a very young age. That love saw him through graduation with a Bachelors of Science degree in Construction Management from Cal Poly, San Luis Obispo, in the late 1990's. During that time, he spent summers on internships with residential, commercial, and heavy civil contractors. Through that process, he developed a passion for earthwork and heavy equipment.
​
Upon graduation, Derek immediately went to work for one of the largest Heavy Civil Construction/General Engineering firms in the San Francisco Bay Area, where he developed highly efficient project management skills, and directed projects including utility installation and connection, expressways, paving, light rail, highway interchanges, and runway re-construction at 2 local International Airports. In 2006, he returned to the Central Coast and elevated to senior project manager for one of SLO County's largest firms. Notable projects during his local tenure included San Luis Obispo Airport runway extension & Taxiway A, Highway 101 re-paving, and 7 years on the Highway 46 corridor improvement/widening projects.
