- Develop hydrology reports and water resources data for stormwater reports, ensuring accuracy, clarity, and compliance with project requirements.
- Review and perform quality control checks on Engineering Associate I work, providing constructive feedback on data collection, model structure, parameters, and results.
- Conduct peer reviews of engineering deliverables to identify potential issues and ensure adherence to EVS standards.
- Utilize Bluebeam and other tools to support quality assurance and quality control processes.
- Research and review state and local codes, ordinances, and permitting requirements to ensure compliance with site specific regulations.
- Apply engineering principles to hydrologic and hydraulic models, evaluating model structure, parameters, and available data to produce accurate results.
- Assist with the development of stormwater reports, hydrology reports, model result mapping, and digital files for internal and external client delivery.
- Ensure engineering analyses and deliverables align with project scopes, regulatory requirements, and client expectations.
- Serve as a technical resource for junior staff by providing guidance on modeling, troubleshooting, and engineering workflows.
- Assist with training junior engineers and helping them develop foundational technical skills.
- Collaborate with senior engineers and multidisciplinary teams to address technical challenges, coordinate project activities, and improve design quality.
- Seek feedback, share knowledge, and pursue opportunities for continued technical and professional development.
WHAT YOU'LL BRING- Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering or a related field.
- 1+ years of experience in civil engineering, hydrology, hydraulics, stormwater management, or a related field.
- Proficiency with ArcMap or QGIS for data processing and map generation.
- Familiarity with HEC-RAS or similar hydrologic and hydraulic modeling software.
