  • Provide technical leadership in treatment processes such as filtration, disinfection, biological treatment, solids handling, odor control, and residuals management.
  • Coordinate with multidisciplinary teams (civil, structural, electrical, mechanical, and I&C) to deliver integrated and constructible treatment solutions.
  • Serve as a primary point of contact for clients, supporting ongoing relationships and ensuring successful project outcomes.
  • Support project pursuits, including proposal development, scope definition, fee development, and participation in interviews.
  • Mentor and develop junior and mid‑level engineers, fostering technical excellence and career growth.

  • Experience with treatment process modeling, permitting, and regulatory coordination.
  • Knowledge of municipal water and wastewater standards and best practices.
  • Demonstrated ability to balance project management, technical leadership, and mentorship responsibilities.
  • Interest in supporting business development and long‑term client relationships.
