Environmental Engineer – Water & Wastewater Remediation
You will lead multidisciplinary design and field efforts that reduce risk, restore land, and deliver cost-effective treatment systems for industrial, municipal, and federal clients. Your work will span feasibility studies, pilot testing, permitting, and construction oversight—each phase demanding critical thinking and meticulous documentation.
Key Responsibilities
- Design water, wastewater, and leachate treatment trains (physical-chemical, biological, membrane) that meet present and future discharge limits.
- Develop remedial action plans and oversee soil-groundwater cleanup under CERCLA and RCRA frameworks.
- Prepare Phase I & II Environmental Site Assessments, including sampling plans, data validation, and risk evaluation.
- Model contaminant fate/transport using MODFLOW, Biowin, and similar numerical tools.
- Generate detailed construction drawings, specifications, and bid packages in AutoCAD and Civil 3D.
- Coordinate with geologists, toxicologists, and regulators to secure permits, variances, and closure letters.
- Mentor junior staff, review technical deliverables, and present findings to client leadership.
- Track project budgets, schedules, and key performance indicators—course-correcting quickly when deviations appear.
Required Qualifications
- Bachelor’s degree in Civil, Environmental, or Chemical Engineering.
- 5+ years designing treatment systems or managing remediation projects in the U.S.
- Proficiency with AutoCAD, ArcGIS, and contaminant modeling software.
- Solid grasp of federal and state regulations (CERCLA, RCRA, NPDES, SDWA).
- Demonstrated success preparing ESA reports and corrective action plans.
- Excellent written and verbal communication; able to translate dense technical data into plain language.
- Valid U.S. work authorization.
Preferred Skills
- Professional Engineer (PE) license or ability to obtain within 12 months.
- Experience with emerging contaminants (PFAS, 1,4-dioxane) and in-situ treatment technologies.
- Familiarity with Life-Cycle Cost Analysis and carbon footprint reduction tactics.
- Working knowledge of remote sensing or drone-enabled site surveys.
