Senior PE with deep industrial/commercial water and wastewater experience who can operate as a client-facing technical leader and help grow the Texas practice. Strong candidates should demonstrate ownership of project budget, schedule, contractual obligations, client service, and quality standards; proposal/business development success; mentoring or team-growth experience; wastewater permitting and regulatory-agency interaction; and leadership of multidisciplinary engineering teams.
