Castle Contracting has expanded its St. Louis and Omaha teams with the addition of Ja-Mes "Jay" Watson III as project engineer and Joe Voypick as project senior engineer.

Based in St. Louis, Jay Watson will apply his project engineering expertise to the Next NGA West project, a new campus for the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency under construction in north St. Louis city.

Prior to joining Castle, he served as manager of the St. Louis Development Corporation’s Project Connect program, a St. Louis City initiative to create alignment between the people, plans and projects within eight neighborhoods surrounding the Next NGA West campus.

Watson received a bachelor’s degree in civil engineering from Missouri University of Science and Technology in Rolla, Missouri, and a bachelor’s degree in physics from Morehouse College in Atlanta. He and his family live in the city of St. Louis.

And Joe Voypick has joined Castle’s Omaha office where he will work on Castle’s growing list of local projects as project senior engineer. He previously served as senior project engineer at McCarthy Building Companies. 

Voypick earned a bachelor’s degree in civil engineering from Southern Illinois University in Carbondale, Illinois. He resides in Omaha.

“The addition of Jay and Joe to our St. Louis and Omaha teams will expand Castle’s capacity to serve our growing list of clients in both markets,” said Michael Pranger, Castle Contracting vice president of operations.
