The role demands strong problem-solving skills, technical proficiency in design software like AutoCAD Civil 3D, and effective time management to meet project deadlines and deliver high-quality results.
Key Responsibilities
Lead the initial design phase of projects by accurately applying local and federal mapping, assessing drainage areas, and determining buildable areas in line with design standards. Demonstrate a thorough understanding of comprehensive lot layouts, local and state buffer zones, zoning regulations, and ordinance requirements.
Conduct detailed site analysis by interpreting topographic data, as-built surveys, and construction staking to inform preliminary design. Perform initial sizing of Best Management Practices (BMPs), rough grading plans, and basic utility design. Ensure comprehensive site due diligence to identify potential constraints and opportunities.
Design horizontal layouts for roadways and parking areas while adhering to project specifications and standards. Utilize AutoCAD Civil 3D for precision in preliminary layouts and drafting.
Execute storm drainage designs using advanced software tools like Hydraflow. Prepare detailed storm drainage plans, calculate culvert designs, and perform gutter spread analyses to ensure proper water flow management and compliance with regulations.

Design and layout water distribution systems that incorporate essential components such as water meters, backflow preventers, fire department connections, and post indicator valves. Perform detailed water distribution analyses under multiple scenarios to optimize functionality and compliance.
Design and layout sanitary sewer systems with a focus on local compliance and utility conflict resolution.
Analyze existing systems, design pump stations and force mains, and collaborate effectively to address underground utility conflicts.
Produce accurate grading plans, assess earthwork volumes, and conduct spot grading with attention to company standards. Ensure that accessible routes are properly graded and free of obstacles by conducting thorough accessibility reviews. Visit project sites as needed to verify existing conditions and refine designs.
Perform horizontal and vertical design of roadway alignments, incorporating detailed pavement marking, signage layouts, and traffic control plans. Apply appropriate superelevation criteria for horizontal curves and create detailed intersection designs with precise curb return elevations.
Engage effectively with other departments to facilitate seamless design integration. Attend coordination meetings to gather essential project details and maintain open communication with team members, making necessary plan adjustments as needed.
Prepare and submit plans, calculations, and supporting documentation that meet the requirements of local and state governmental agencies. Complete all submittal applications and lead the project team to produce high-quality deliverables that align with company standards for design and CAD practices.
Manage work hours effectively with a proactive approach, especially when project timelines are strict.
Demonstrate a sense of urgency and efficiency to meet project deadlines without compromising quality.
