Key responsibilities
- Develop and review hydrologic and hydraulic models for stormwater systems, drainage networks, channels, ponds and floodplains.
- Prepare watershed studies, master drainage plans, capital improvement programmes and feasibility assessments.
- Analyse rainfall, runoff, flood risk and system capacity, recommending practical and cost-effective improvements.
- Lead or support the preparation of technical reports, engineering calculations, specifications, cost estimates and presentations.
- Manage consultants, contractors and project deliverables, ensuring work is delivered to agreed budgets, schedules and quality standards.
- Review development proposals, drainage studies and permit documentation for compliance with applicable regulations and design criteria.
- Coordinate with internal teams, regulatory agencies, community representatives and external stakeholders.
- Provide technical guidance to engineers and technical staff, and contribute to standards, procedures and long-term asset management strategies.
About you
You will hold a bachelor’s degree in civil or environmental engineering, or a closely related discipline, together with substantial professional experience in stormwater, hydrology, hydraulics or water resources engineering. Professional Engineer registration, or the ability to obtain registration in Florida, is required.
Strong knowledge of applicable drainage, floodplain and water-quality regulations is expected, along with experience using modelling and design tools such as EPA SWMM, ICPR, HEC-RAS, GIS and CAD platforms. Experience with asset management, green infrastructure, drainage master planning and public infrastructure projects would be advantageous.
