We are building high performing teams to deliver complex EPC heavy civil projects, looking for motivated, hands‑on, collaborative innovators, doers, and problem solvers. The projects are hydro‑power generation projects with scopes including roadway development, significant structures such as dams, spillways, tunnel waterways, inlet/outlet structures, hydromechanical equipment, mechanical and electrical systems, and site facilities and buildings. This is an opportunity to be part of history‑making projects.

The Roadworks Engineering Lead Engineer is responsible for independently executing and technically leading civil and roadway engineering activities for the SRP Roadworks scope. This role covers planning, design development, technical review, and integration of road infrastructure in accordance with ADOT standards, SRP requirements, and applicable federal, state, and local codes. The role requires sound professional judgment, close coordination with multidisciplinary teams, and active engagement with design consultants, construction teams, SRP, ADOT, and other stakeholders to ensure safe, constructible, and compliant roadway designs.

Collaboration with the JV partner, design consultant, and the owner is essential. The engineer will work with the team to establish regular meetings with design consultants and other external stakeholders and reporting cycles for managing, coordinating, and assuring the design.

• Lead and/or perform civil and roadway engineering design and review for SRP road works, including permanent and temporary access roads, internal site roads, construction haul roads, laydown areas, interfaces and tie‑ins with existing public roads, intersections, driveways, traffic control features, roadside drainage, culverts, ditches, and stormwater systems, and flexible and rigid pavement design.
• Work with the Design Subcontractor and discharge responsibilities as set out in the Management of Third‑Party Engineering, 10G‑M41‑00013.
• Review and approve horizontal and vertical alignments, typical sections and cross‑sections, pavement design calculations, drainage reports and hydrology/hydraulics inputs, and technical specifications and quantities.
• Ensure compliance with ADOT Roadway Design Guidelines, Standard Drawings, Specifications, AASHTO (Green Book), relevant AASHTO pavement & drainage standards, SRP technical requirements, and local authority guidelines.
• Support design maturity planning and deliverables aligned with EDD / design stage gateways.
• Review drawings and models prior to issue to ensure technical accuracy, constructability, safety, and interface alignment.
• Coordinate with geotechnical, drainage, traffic, utilities, and construction disciplines to ensure designs reflect ground conditions, hydraulic requirements, traffic management needs, and construction staging constraints.
• Identify and manage design risks, utility conflicts, constructability issues, and permitting constraints early in the design process.
• Support permitting and approvals with ADOT, SRP, and other authorities having jurisdiction, including response to comments and technical clarifications.
• Provide construction support, including responses to RFIs, evaluation of nonconformances, review of contractor submittals, and field‑driven design clarifications.
• Participate in constructability reviews, safety‑in‑design workshops, risk reviews, and value engineering exercises.
• Apply Bechtel's Engineering Quality Management System, checking protocols, and design verification requirements.
• Ensure compliance with ES&H requirements, including roadway safety, traffic control, work zone safety, and environmental protection measures.
• Coordinate and manage design consultants' civil/roadway deliverables, including schedules, reports, risks, and issues, and provide feedback to the project engineering manager.
• Chair discipline‑specific meetings and manage action tracking.
• Represent the project/client in technical meetings with ADOT, SRP, and other stakeholders.
