Entry-Level Civil / Environmental Engineer – Water and Wastewater Infrastructure
This role offers an excellent opportunity for a recent Civil or Environmental Engineering graduate with 0–3 years of experience to build a professional engineering career focused on water resources and sustainable water and wastewater infrastructure. You will join a collaborative project team that helps communities and industries solve complex infrastructure challenges while gaining hands-on experience in design, field work, permitting, and construction support.
The team-based culture emphasizes mentorship, learning, and growth, making this an ideal position for an entry-level engineer who wants to apply what they learned in school to meaningful, real-world projects.
Responsibilities
- Apply standard civil and environmental engineering techniques, procedures, and criteria to complete assigned engineering tasks under the guidance of experienced team members.
- Work under the supervision of a project manager or senior-level engineer to support water, wastewater, stormwater, and related infrastructure projects.
- Perform field work, including site visits, inspections, and data collection to support design, permitting, and construction activities.
- Prepare and contribute to engineering reports, technical memoranda, and permit applications for municipal infrastructure projects.
- Assist with construction engineering tasks such as reviewing contractor submittals, observing construction activities, and documenting field conditions.
- Complete simple design calculations related to water distribution systems, wastewater collection systems, stormwater and drainage facilities, grading, and site development.
- Coordinate with contractors during design and construction to clarify plans, resolve issues, and support successful project delivery.
- Review construction drawings and specifications for accuracy, completeness, and compliance with project requirements and standards.
- Contact and coordinate with government officials and regulatory agencies to obtain required permits and approvals.
- Support the design of water distribution facilities, wastewater collection systems, and related infrastructure for municipal clients across various communities.
- Assist with rehabilitation and new construction projects for water systems, wastewater systems, and transportation-related infrastructure.
- Contribute to stormwater engineering tasks, including drainage analysis and design, as assigned.
- Collaborate with internal team members in a strong, team-oriented environment to deliver high-quality engineering solutions.
- Interact with clients in a professional manner, supporting meetings, presentations, and project updates as your experience grows.
- Work closely with an assigned mentor, participate in frequent performance evaluations, and actively pursue professional growth and development.
Essential Skills
- Bachelor's degree in Civil Engineering or Environmental/Ecological Engineering.
- 0–3 years of civil engineering experience in one or more of the following areas: water or wastewater, transportation, site development, stormwater, or drainage.
- Minimum cumulative GPA of 3.2, verified via official transcripts, or at least 1+ year of water/wastewater design engineering experience if GPA is below 3.2.
- Fundamentals of Engineering (FE) / Engineer-in-Training (EI) credential preferred and recognized with an elevated entry-level title.
- Proficiency with AutoCAD Civil 3D for civil design, including grading, drainage, and site layout.
- Foundational knowledge of water distribution systems, wastewater collection systems, and stormwater/drainage design principles.
- Ability to perform basic engineering calculations and apply standard engineering methods to real-world problems.
- Strong written and verbal communication skills to prepare reports, coordinate with contractors, and communicate with government officials and clients.
- Ability to work effectively as part of a project team under the supervision of senior engineers and project managers.
- Willingness to perform both office and field work, including inspections and site visits.
- Commitment to pursuing a professional engineering career in water resources…
