Civil Engineer

About This Role

Developing large-scale project civil and site preparation designs is the core of this engineering role, which also involves monitoring construction activities and ensuring adherence to civil design plans. This position is ideal for an engineer with strong civil design and construction experience who is passionate about solving complex site development challenges and influencing project execution from early development through construction.

Responsibilities

• Develop large-scale project civil and site preparation designs
• Monitor construction phase activities, including contractor adherence to civil design plans, managing field adjustments, response for contractor RFI and CORs, and conducting onsite quality assurance for grading and site preparation
• Use critical thinking and engineering knowledge to comply with EPC Contract requirements while driving economic solutions that mutually benefit both DEPCOM and the customer
• Coordinate with other Engineering disciplines (Project, Structural, Electrical)
• Utilize third-party preferred partners to complete grading and erosion control plans, construction specifications, SWPPP, hydrology reports, etc.
• Complete project due diligence via site visits to evaluate grading and site preparation strategy, existing drainage conditions and general site conditions
• Report tasks and civil deliverables status to key internal customers including Project Engineering, Project Management, and Construction
• Review grading and drainage plans, drainage studies, ALTA/topo and other survey documents, and geotechnical reports to make recommendations for project site preparation design and identify schedule and cost constraints
• Organize and lead meetings related to Civil Engineering and site preparation with multiple internal and external project stakeholders
• Address site challenges such as soil stabilization, foundation design, and erosion control on large-scale developments
• Balance cost, schedule, and quality considerations through value engineering and innovative approaches to civil design and construction
• Implement lessons learned and contribute to the development of standardized workflows and process improvements across civil engineering operations

Requirements

• Bachelor's degree or higher in Civil Engineering, Structural Engineering, or a related engineering discipline
• Experience supporting land development and site preparation for large-scale construction projects
• Experience reviewing and applying civil engineering design principles in construction environments
• Experience with stormwater management, drainage design, and erosion control practices
• Willing and able to travel up to 25% for project site visits and field support activities
