the Eden Group Engineer
The origins of The Eden Group trace back to 1982, when Joseph T. Eden, PE, became a licensed engineer and founded Hillside Engineering, a firm focused on providing civil and structural engineering services throughout Southern California. Over time, Hillside Engineering developed a strong reputation for delivering practical, buildable engineering solutions for developers, architects, contractors, and public agencies.
In 2004, Joseph’s son, Wissam Takieddine, began working at Hillside Engineering, gaining early hands-on experience in engineering design, project coordination, and construction processes. During this time, Wissam went on to study Construction Management, further developing the technical and operational expertise that would later shape the company’s expanded services. Through this experience, he recognized a significant gap in coordination between design disciplines, engineering teams, and construction within the industry, which often created inefficiencies during project delivery.
Wissam also recognized that the name Hillside Engineering, while well established, limited the perception of the firm’s capabilities by focusing primarily on hillside projects and engineering alone. To reflect a broader vision and a more integrated approach to project delivery, he developed the concept and branding for The Eden Group.
In 2012, Wissam Takieddine and Joseph T. Eden formally founded The Eden Group, expanding the firm’s services to include integrated civil and structural engineering, design, MEP engineering, and construction management. Building on decades of engineering experience, the firm continues its commitment to delivering technically sound solutions that are practical for real-world construction while helping clients move projects efficiently from concept through completion.

Working with TEG really helped our firm cut down coordination costs and time because they have a design, civil, and the structural team all under one roof. Joseph also applied value engineering techniques which also helped bring down the cost of construction without the need for an expensive temporary shoring system. Would definitely work with them on our next project!
