Senior Environmental Engineer

The Environmental Engineering role leads complex environmental engineering work involving the planning, analysis, and design of solutions that support environmental protection, water sustainability, and public health outcomes. Operating with minimal supervision, this role applies advanced technical expertise to solve complex problems without clearly defined solutions across natural and engineered systems. This position addresses environmental and public health protection, mitigation, and prevention of degradation of water, soils, air quality, and habitats.

This role may lead technical efforts across water and wastewater treatment and conveyance, stormwater management, solid and hazardous waste management, and related practice areas. This role is responsible for delivering high‑quality engineering analyses, designs, and recommendations with significant project impact.

• Independently perform technical analyses and evaluate sustainable environmental engineering solutions.
• Prepare, review, and finalize technical reports, calculations, and design documentation.
• Design environmental protection systems and infrastructure in accordance with regulatory and project requirement
• Develop facility, watershed, or resource management plans with defined scopes and objectives. Analyze complex data sets and ensure technical accuracy and regulatory compliance of deliverables.
• Provide technical support for permitting, regulatory approvals, and coordination with vendors and stakeholders
• Support project execution through collaboration with multidisciplinary teams.
• Flexibility to adapt and execute various additional assignments based on evolving needs.
• May provide mentorship, guidance, support, and knowledge-sharing to help less experienced team members develop their skills and grow within their roles.

• Proficient knowledge of environmental engineering principles, methods, and regulatory frameworks.
• Strong analytical and problem ‑ solving capabilities
• Ability to manage assigned tasks independently and meet project deadlines.
• Clear and effective communication skills for technical and non ‑ technical audiences.

• Typically certified in the SMS Framework, and progressing through the SMS competencies.

• Abachelor’sdegree in environmental engineeringor related field is required.
• Has achieved or is working towards achieving professional license.

• Ability to lead advanced water treatment engineering work involving membrane system planning, process design, equipment selection, application engineering, operational evaluation, troubleshooting, and optimization for water, wastewater, recycled water, and potable reuse
• Knowledge of membrane system design principles from both consulting and manufacturer perspectives, including process selection, design criteria, hydraulic limitations, membrane element selection, array design, pressure vessel configuration, pretreatment requirements, chemical cleaning systems, membrane integrity testing, and system redundancy.
• Understanding of key membrane and advanced treatment performance metrics, including production, recovery, flux, permeability, transmembrane pressure, differential pressure, salt passage, normalized flow, cleaning frequency, membrane integrity, chemical use, and normalized performance trends.
• Ability to lead membrane operational evaluations, including fouling and scaling assessments, antiscalant and cleaning chemical performance reviews, clean-in-place effectiveness evaluations, integrity testing interpretation, process troubleshooting, optimization studies, and asset reliability recommendations.
• Ability to provide on-site engineering and application support during pilot testing, commissioning, membrane autopsies or inspections, clean-in-place activities, condition assessments, performance testing, membrane replacement planning, and full-scale facility optimization activities.
• Ability to manage multidisciplinary technical efforts, coordinate with owners, operators, membrane manufacturers, chemical vendors, contractors, and client representatives, develop scopes and budgets, track schedules and deliverables, and translate technical findings into practical engineering recommendations.
