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.
