Civil Engineer – Water​/Wastewater Design

Position Overview

We are seeking a Civil / Water Resources Engineer with strong hands‑on experience in municipal water and wastewater design. This role focuses on the production of construction‑ready engineering drawings and design deliverables for public infrastructure projects, including water distribution, wastewater collection, pump stations, treatment facilities, drainage, and utility systems.

This position offers a clear growth path from design engineering into project management, with increasing responsibility for client interaction, field coordination, and independent project delivery.

• Design and develop municipal water and wastewater infrastructure projects (pump stations, treatment plants, pipelines, drainage, and utilities)
• Produce detailed engineering drawings using AutoCAD and Civil 3D at an individual workstation
• Prepare construction‑ready design packages, including plans, profiles, grading, and utility layouts
• Support senior engineers with project execution, scheduling, and technical deliverables
• Participate in client meetings, site visits, and field troubleshooting as experience grows
• Assist in conceptual planning and engineering analysis for municipal infrastructure projects
• Contribute to projects within a $90M+ active construction portfolio
• Develop into independent project management responsibilities over time

• Bachelor's degree in Civil Engineering (or closely related field)
• Active EIT certification required (PE preferred)
• 5–7 years of relevant experience preferred (strong design‑focused candidates considered)
• Hands‑on experience in municipal water and/or wastewater design
• Proficiency in AutoCAD and Civil 3D for civil design production
• Ability to work onsite and independently produce engineering drawings
• Experience with construction documents for public infrastructure projects

• PE license (Texas PE strongly preferred)
• Experience transitioning from design engineering into project or construction management
• Field or construction experience on municipal utility projects (inspection, support, or site engineering)
• Background in civil/site development with significant water/wastewater exposure
• Experience working in consulting engineering or municipal utility environments

• AutoCAD (Intermediate – Daily production use)
• Civil 3D (Intermediate – Civil modeling, grading, pipe networks, plan production)
• Municipal water/wastewater systems design
• Construction documentation and engineering deliverables

This is a long‑term opportunity with a well‑established engineering organization with a 55‑year history and a strong municipal infrastructure portfolio. The role offers significant career growth potential, including advancement into project management, client relationship ownership, and potential long‑term leadership opportunities.
