Role description:
Arcadis is seeking a self-starting and experienced Project Civil/Environmental Engineer to support an expanding portfolio of projects throughout the United States.
As a Project Engineer you will collaborate with scientists, engineers, project managers, and technical experts on various activities in support of civil design and environmental permitting projects for a diverse project portfolio, including projects in the energy, industrial, and transportation sectors associated with site development, reclamation, and restoration projects. The position will require experience with federal and state environmental permitting.
Role accountabilities:
Responsibilities will include working with project managers and team members to develop engineering designs for permitting or construction permits. The candidate should have demonstrated experience with the management of civil or environmental engineering projects, including land development and associated planning, soil and erosion control design, and stormwater permitting. You should also be able to analyze documentation including technical reports, construction submittals, maps, drawings, tests, and aerial photographs to understand site characteristics (e.g., geotechnical properties, terrain, hydrologic and hydraulic characteristics, etc.) to support design development.
Review applicable regulations, permitting requirements, and standards. Based on interpretation of data and regulatory constraints, the candidate will develop civil engineering designs on projects of varying complexity. Be responsible for producing quality materials within tight timeframes and simultaneously manage several assignments.
This role will primarily be office based; however, as needed, you will need to conduct field assignments, including participating in face-to-face client, technical, and other stakeholder meetings.
Must have the ability to travel up to 15%. Additional responsibilities will require the delegation of work and mentorship to junior engineers, participating in and facilitating group meetings, and effectively working with the project team, including local, national, and global technical and client teams.
