Key Responsibilities

• Lead project planning by creating detailed project schedules and tracking milestones using project scheduling tools.
• Prepare, review, and manage technical engineering reports, schematics, and design documentation using CAD software such as AutoCAD, Civil 3D, Revit, and MicroStation and other CAD platforms.
• Manage construction phases, including permitting, construction inspection, and onsite supervision to confirm adherence to design specifications and safety standards.
• Coordinate with clients, contractors, and regulatory agencies through effective communication to support permitting and resolve issues promptly.
• Perform hydrological modeling and hydrologic analysis using HEC-HMS or hydrologic analysis tools to improve stormwater systems and water management solutions.
• Oversee construction estimating and support project budgets by evaluating scope and resource requirements.
• Use GIS platforms such as ArcGIS and GIS-based tools for land surveying, spatial analysis, and system design activities.
• Lead team efforts in technical design development, including schematics for stormwater management systems, water treatment facilities, or wastewater systems.
• Support quality control through construction inspections and maintain project documentation, including progress reports and technical writing.
• Contribute to geotechnical assessments, hydraulics calculations, and system design modifications as needed to meet project specifications.

Requirements

• Bachelor’s degree in Civil Engineering or a related field; advanced certifications in Project Management or specialized engineering disciplines are a plus.
