The Senior Civil Engineer serves as a Discipline Lead, providing engineering leadership and management across cross‑discipline teams on a wide range of industrial and utility projects. This role oversees departmental project aspects including resources, work scope, schedules, and budgets.

Typical work scopes include site planning, land development, and underground utility design for water, stormwater, and wastewater systems from conceptual design through construction. Projects range from smaller, single‑discipline assignments such as utility extensions and minor roadways to large, complex, multi‑discipline infrastructure, building, and site improvement projects.

• Collect and prepare engineering data and information, and perform detailed design and calculations with support from a licensed professional engineering manager.
• Develop comprehensive technical specifications and detailed work scopes for civil engineering projects.
• Assist with and provide leadership for field work related to design development and problem‑solving activities.
• Support collaboration and coordination for Owner, Vendor, and Contractor submittals, and communicate effectively with Owner representatives, Contractors, and other project stakeholders to ensure successful project execution.
• Interact with other internal departments and external suppliers to obtain necessary technical and project information.
• Serve as the Discipline Lead on complex, multi‑discipline projects by estimating work hours, developing scopes of work, making staffing recommendations, and checking drawings for quality and accuracy.
• Self‑perform and collaborate with others using software and design tools to produce engineering deliverables that comply with accepted engineering principles, company standards, and customer contract specifications.
• Apply value engineering principles to develop designs that meet client requirements for operability, reliability, maintainability, and safety.
• Design industry rail access and yard track layouts when required by the project.
• Prepare permit applications and supporting documentation for review agency permitting processes.
• Coordinate work activities with the broader project team to maintain alignment on scope, schedule, and deliverables.

• At least 10 years of experience planning and designing civil engineering plans, including site grading, land development, water and wastewater systems, and underground utility layouts.
• At least 10 years of experience creating engineering plans, specifications, exhibits, scopes of work, and design calculations.
• Proficiency with AutoCAD Civil 3D for land development, site planning, grading, drainage, and utility design.
• Experience using Civil 3D with Building Information Modeling (BIM) capabilities.
• Proficiency with BIM modeling software such as Revit.
• Strong background in stormwater and wastewater design and utility design.
• Ability to lead discipline‑specific efforts on multi‑discipline projects, including estimating hours, defining scope, and reviewing drawings.
• Strong communication and collaboration skills for working with owners, vendors, contractors, and cross‑functional teams.
• Ability to perform detailed engineering calculations and prepare technical documentation in accordance with engineering standards and client specifications.

• Professional Engineer (PE) license preferred in addition to EIT certification.
• Experience with industrial projects from the ground up, including large‑scale site development and infrastructure.
• Experience preparing permit applications and supporting documents for regulatory agencies.
• Experience coordinating survey services and integrating survey data into design.
• Experience designing industry rail access and yard track layouts.
