About the Role
Our client is seeking a talented and experienced Remote Civil Design Engineer specializing in Stormwater Management to join their fully remote team. This position is crucial for the development and implementation of sustainable urban drainage systems and flood control measures across various project locations. You will be responsible for conceptualizing, designing, and detailing innovative stormwater solutions, ensuring compliance with environmental regulations and engineering best practices. This role is ideal for a self-motivated individual who thrives in a remote work environment and possesses exceptional technical acumen in hydrological and hydraulic modeling. You will collaborate virtually with a diverse team of engineers and urban planners, contributing significantly to projects that enhance community resilience and environmental protection.
Key Responsibilities
- Design and model stormwater infrastructure, including culverts, detention ponds, green infrastructure, and drainage channels.
- Perform hydrological and hydraulic analyses using industry-standard software (e.g., HEC-RAS, SWMM).
- Develop detailed design drawings, specifications, and reports for stormwater management systems.
- Ensure designs meet local, provincial, and national regulatory requirements.
- Conduct site assessments and feasibility studies remotely, leveraging GIS data and available project documentation.
- Collaborate effectively with project managers, clients, and regulatory agencies via virtual communication channels.
