Job description
Water Civil or Environmental Engineer - ( 230003V7 )
Description
Are you an engineer eager to advance the human right to water in California? Is your current work less fulfilling than you hoped for? Then come join us in working with and for communities served by struggling water systems or domestic wells, to contribute to securing safe, affordable water. People in these communities face the cumulative impacts of drinking water disparities, chronic disinvestment, and environmental pollution, and this Senior role requires a familiarity with environmental justice principles and an ability to effectively collaborate across disciplines. Stantec’s Water group is looking to hire one or more water engineers to join our team working on Safe and Affordable Funding for Equity and Resilience (SAFER) Drinking Water projects throughout California. The SAFER Drinking Water Program furthers California’s effort to achieve the human right to water for the one million Californians who currently lack accessible and safe drinking water.
At Stantec you can apply your passion and collaborate with top talent making an impact for our communities, our clients, and the industry at large. Many of the world’s top engineers, scientists, and planners come together in our Water business because we view a community’s relationship with water a bit differently—as a single holistic system that includes technical, social, and environmental factors that need to be balanced and strengthened. Our experts guide our work with scientific rigor, an innovative spirit, and a vision for growth. Every day, we help communities improve, reuse, and protect this precious resource. By 2025 we’re hiring 2,000 people (like you) to join our team. Grow with us, H2O+U.
Your Opportunity
This is a hybrid role for an experienced process, environmental, or civil engineer to work alongside planners, engagement specialists, and others on SAFER drinking water projects in our Pasadena or Irvine office. We envision you will adopt a lead role on SAFER projects, which can include well investigations or wellhead treatment, drinking water system consolidation or regionalization, or other drinking water related tasks. You will ideally also work on water, wastewater, and recycled water planning and treatment projects as a member of our broader Water group. You should be able to work independently and as a lead on smaller and larger water infrastructure projects. You will analyze proposed projects to ensure reliability, resource efficiency and cost-effectiveness, and work with Stantec team members throughout the US and be connected to our global expertise.
Your Key Responsibilities
Lead design tasks as part of a project team, collaborate with local and virtual project teams and other senior project staff to produce high quality work products for our clients. Tasks may include performing engineering calculations, preparing detailed design drawings and specifications, performing constructability reviews and preparing planning and technical engineering reports, and construction/contract documents.
Work in close partnership with colleague experts in community water planning, community engagement, public affairs, and the social sciences to provide holistic service to marginalized communities as they strive to achieve sustainable safe and affordable drinking water.
Collaborate with national technical subject matter experts and discipline leadership engaged in advanced research and design to incorporate standards of practice and lessons learned to bring Stantec’s wealth of knowledge to each client and project.
Exercise independent judgment to analyze issues, interpret information and select methods/solutions to resolve problems and meet project requirements.
Provide mentoring to junior level staff, including assigning tasks, coaching, and checking work.
Perform site visits, participate in condition assessments, and observe construction, as necessary.
Provide technical support on project pursuits in collaboration with business development leaders.
Communicate effectively with large project teams, clients, and industry professionals.
