• Prepare detailed engineering drawings, layouts, and schematics using CAD software.
• Develop hydraulic models to assess and optimize wet utility system performance.
• Perform engineering calculations covering pipe sizing, flow rates, pressure losses, and system capacities.
• Conduct feasibility studies and site assessments to establish project requirements.
• Review environmental and topographical information to support effective integration of utility systems.
• Prepare technical reports, design specifications, and bills of quantities.
• Verify that designs comply with applicable local regulations, codes, standards, and authority requirements.
• Coordinate wet utility designs with architects, urban planners, and other engineering disciplines.
• Identify and resolve design challenges and site-specific technical issues.
• Assist senior engineers with design scope definition and project submissions.
• Contribute to risk assessments and design decisions covering safety, operability, and maintainability.

The Wet Utilities Design Engineer will coordinate utility requirements with the wider infrastructure design to identify interfaces and maintain consistency between disciplines.
