Wastewater Engineer

Remotely
Full-time

We are a privately held engineering firm recognized for pioneering energy-positive water resource recovery facilities. Our portfolio ranges from compact rural lagoons to 150-acre regional treatment campuses. Innovation is our ethos; safety and sustainability are non-negotiable. You will collaborate with subject-matter experts—process chemists, data scientists, and automation gurus—who encourage experimentation and celebrate every breakthrough.


Key Responsibilities

- Master-plan and size wastewater treatment plants, lift stations, and force mains for flows up to 50 MGD.  

- Develop process flow diagrams, P&IDs, and hydraulic profiles using BioWin, GPS-X, and SewerGEMS.  

- Produce construction documents in AutoCAD and Revit—layouts, sections, pipe networks, and civil sheets.  

- Analyze nutrient removal, aeration efficiency, and biosolids stabilization; recommend process retrofits that slash OPEX by 15 %+.  

- Author technical memoranda, basis-of-design reports, and permit submittals for federal and state regulators.  

- Mentor junior engineers, review calculations, and stamp plans as the responsible Professional Engineer (PE).  

- Coordinate with structural, mechanical, and electrical teams to integrate HVAC, SCADA, and power systems…seamlessly.  

- Present findings to public works boards, secure stakeholder buy-in, and defend alternatives during value-engineering workshops.  

- Track emerging regulations (PFAS, micro-plastics) and weave proactive compliance solutions into designs.  

- Champion digital-twin adoption and real-time data dashboards to monitor plant KPIs after commissioning.  


Required Qualifications

- Bachelor’s degree in Civil, Environmental, or Chemical Engineering.  

- 5+ years focused on wastewater treatment or collection system projects.  

- Proficiency with BioWin OR GPS-X, plus AutoCAD Civil 3D; ability to interpret SewerGEMS models.  

- In-depth knowledge of activated sludge, BNR, tertiary filtration, disinfection, and hydraulics.  

- U.S. Professional Engineer license (or ability to obtain within 12 months).  

- Working familiarity with Clean Water Act, NPDES permits, and state discharge standards.  

- Exceptional written and verbal communication—you translate lab data into boardroom decisions.  


Preferred Skills

- Revit MEP coordination, CFD or finite-element modeling.  

- Biosolids digestion and biogas cogeneration design experience.  

- Construction phase services: RFI resolution, submittal review, and change-order negotiation.  

- Spanish language proficiency for diverse community outreach.
