An opportunity exists for an Intermediate Water Resources Engineer to join a highly technical and collaborative team delivering complex water resources work across Canada.

Our projects include drainage and stormwater management, flood mitigation, natural asset solutions, master planning, and climate resilience, spanning the full project lifecycle—from planning and analysis through design and implementation.

We are seeking an experienced engineer motivated by challenging problems, impactful engineering, and the opportunity to play a meaningful role in the continued evolution of a growing, highly regarded practice.

You will join a high-performing, forward-thinking team that supports clients in managing existing water resources infrastructure, designing new systems, and advancing emerging service offerings informed by academic collaboration and innovation in artificial intelligence and machine learning.

As the successful candidate, you will use your technical abilities to lead and/or complete the surface water resources component(s) of a wide variety of projects in a dynamic design team setting.

You will report directly to the Team Lead and will have both technical and business development responsibilities.

include:

• Undertake detailed studies, modelling and design tasks on a wide variety of water resources projects, from planning and conceptual design through preliminary / detailed design, implementation, and operational support.
• Projects will include master drainage plans, floodplain delineation, highway drainage design, erosion studies, drainage infrastructure design, and stormwater retrofit flood studies.
• Hydrologic / hydraulic modeling to support floodplain analysis and design of flood mitigation measures, assessment and design of culverts and storm sewer networks, design of low impact development practices, and preparation of drainage and SWM design briefs and master plans.
• Coordinate with senior water resources engineers, hydrologic / hydraulic modellers, and project leaders to ensure that the projects’ needs are met, and priorities are understood.
• Develop surface drainage and storm sewer hydrologic / hydraulic models to assess performance, investigate deficiencies and generate/evaluate feasible remedial solutions.
• Undertake technical analysis, including developing new methods and techniques, to complete complex or unique water resources studies.
• Mentorship of junior technical staff and review of work to ensure high degree of accuracy.
• Undertake field investigations in support of drainage infrastructure assessments and designs.
• Prepare technical memos and reports, proposals, and other documentation for clients, review agencies, and the public.
• Communicate results / interpretations via technical reporting and presentations.

This position includes exposure to a variety of projects and sectors, so experience with different sectors and clients would be considered an asset.

Career growth opportunities stemming from the position include the potential for a leadership role locally and/or corporately
