As a Professional Engineer (Structural Focus) at Water Works Engineers, you will play a key leadership role in the planning, design, and construction of structural components for water, wastewater, and recycled water infrastructure projects. This includes treatment facilities, pump stations, tanks, and related buildings across the Western U.S. You’ll collaborate closely with multidisciplinary teams and clients, applying your technical expertise to develop safe, efficient, and code‑compliant structures that support vital community infrastructure.

This role is ideal for engineers who possess a strong structural design background and a passion for infrastructure that makes a difference.

• Lead or contribute to structural design of buildings and water‑related infrastructure, including analysis and preparation of calculations, drawings, and specifications.
• Serve as a technical expert on structural aspects of multidisciplinary projects, collaborating with Civil, Mechanical, Electrical, Architectural, and Geotechnical engineers.
• Prepare and review design documentation for regulatory approvals, building permits, and construction submittals.
• Develop and manage cost estimates and structural scopes within broader project budgets.
• Perform or oversee QA/QC for structural deliverables, ensuring technical accuracy and compliance with applicable codes.
• Support or lead construction phase services including site inspections, submittal reviews, RFI responses, and structural observation reports.
• Mentor junior engineers and technical staff; share knowledge to support team development.
• Apply knowledge of current structural codes (IBC, ACI, AISC, ASCE, etc.) and industry standards to all phases of design and construction.
• Remain current with structural engineering innovations, tools, and best practices to improve design quality and efficiency.

• Bachelor’s and/or Master’s degree in Civil or Structural Engineering from an accredited program.
• 7+ years of experience in structural engineering; experience with water/wastewater facilities preferred.
• Professional Engineer (PE) license is required in any U.S. state, with the ability to obtain reciprocity in Utah or Arizona. Candidates with PE licensure must demonstrate strong technical design experience and the ability to contribute to structural analysis, prepare design documents, and provide QA/QC on structural components of water infrastructure projects.
• Structural Engineer (SE) license is highly desired. Candidates with SE licensure may be eligible for expanded leadership responsibilities, including independent stamping of structural plans, managing structural design scopes, and serving as Engineer of Record for facilities governed by stricter code requirements.
• Proficiency in Microsoft Office Suite (Word, Excel, PowerPoint) and structural design software such as RISA, SAP
  2000, or equivalent.
• Familiarity with CADD software (AutoCAD, Revit) and coordination with modeling teams.
• Strong communication skills for interfacing with clients, regulators, contractors, and internal teams.
• Ability and willingness to conduct fieldwork, including site visits and structural…
