Your Opportunity

The role of a Water Resources EIT is to work on smaller projects, and as a team member of larger projects under the close guidance and supervision of a senior engineer/designer. You will perform a variety of tasks which include calculations, significant field work, coordination of simple tasks, and meeting attendance and recording. The smaller projects that an entry-level civil engineer may be assigned to will have relatively few complex features; however, you should be able to evaluate, select, specify, and engineer systems or products for a project. In general, a Water Resources EIT will assist more senior engineers/designers by performing the routine aspects of civil engineering assignments.

Your Key Responsibilities

• Apply knowledge of general concepts of relevant civil engineering elements including system hydraulics, surveying and topographic mapping, geotechnical considerations, grading, utility investigations and analyses.
• Assist in creation of hydrologic and hydraulic modeling and accompanying geospatial data.
• Assist team in preparing civil designs, drawings, specifications, presentations and reports.
• Conduct basic calculations and performs other duties of a similar nature and level as assigned and under the supervision of a project engineer.
• Perform significant field work related to pilot, construction, and general water resources related activities (up to 75% field work during peak seasons).
