Role accountabilities:

In this role you will provide transportation engineering design and technical expertise with a clear focus on municipal roadway projects, taking responsibility for detailed calculations, model creation, and drawing production while developing plans, cross-sections, pavement and curb details, associated engineering reports, and contract specifications for a wide variety of infrastructure works.

You will prepare conceptual, preliminary, and detailed cost estimates and rigorously review project documents prior to issue to verify scope, presentation, and technical accuracy—ensuring compliance with municipal standards, constructability, and procurement readiness.

The role involves coordinating the delivery of technical designs to meet cost, schedule, and quality objectives by producing full design packages and working closely with other engineering disciplines and technical specialists to integrate roadway design with utilities, drainage, traffic control, and environmental requirements while meeting stakeholder and municipal criteria.

This position requires applying a working knowledge of stormwater analysis and design together with strong interpersonal, organizational, and analytical skills; you will be task-oriented, committed to high-quality work and attention to detail, and able to work independently and effectively within diverse project teams to deliver reliable, constructible municipal roadway solutions.
