  • Proficiency in Civil 3D and familiarity with P&ID software.
  • Ability to support CAD tasks and ensure technical accuracy.
  • Experience :
  • Typically 3–7 years in process / civil engineering roles.

  • PE license preferred (or on track to obtain).
  • Attributes for Success :
  • Effective communicator and mentor.

  • Interest in business development for future growth (not required, but a plus).
  • Comfortable with occasional fieldwork and short travel.
  • Nice-to-Have Skills

  • BIM interaction experience.
  • Hydraulic modeling knowledge.
  • Regulatory permitting expertise.
  • Industrial project experience (laundries, food plants, etc.).
  • Why Join Us?

  • Clear Advancement Path : Grow into management roles.
  • Impactful Work : Help shape critical water and wastewater infrastructure projects.
  • Collaborative Culture : Work closely with leaders and mentor junior staff.
  • Competitive Benefits :
  • Medical, Dental, Vision

  • Life & Long-Term Disability
