  • Produce construction drawings, technical specifications, and cost estimates.
  • Mentor junior engineers and provide technical guidance within the Water Resources Team.
  • Develop technical documentation, including reports and memos, that clearly outline methodologies, assumptions, and findings.

Qualifications:

  • Master’s degree in Civil Engineering, Environmental Engineering, or a related discipline (highly preferred).
  • 2–5 years of relevant water resources or stormwater engineering experience; co-op, internship, or research experience may be considered toward this.
