New Employee Spotlight: Jace

It’s simple, really. Jace Heimerman’s career path started with the same spark of interest as many other engineers here – he liked math. He recognized early on that math and science were his strengths, and by middle school, he had already decided he wanted to become an engineer.

Jace grew up in Scottsbluff, Nebraska, and attended South Dakota School of Mines & Technology in Rapid City, SD. He graduated in May 2026 with a degree in Civil Engineering and began his professional career at Sayre Associates in Sioux Falls, SD.

New engineer Jace feeling at home and settled at Sayre Associates.

His enthusiasm for the profession quickly set him apart. Jace genuinely enjoys coming to work and is excited to learn, take on new challenges, and put his education into practice. As he puts it, he finally gets to do what he has wanted to do since he was a kid. He's been preparing for this! He comes to work happy each day – even on Mondays.

The transition from learning in a classroom to working in a real-world setting has certainly been a learning curve, but Jace continues to bring a great attitude. His willingness to ask questions, explore different aspects of engineering, and keep learning has made him an excellent addition to the Sayre team.

And he's good at math.

Welcome to the Sayre team, Jace!
