  • Produce construction drawings, technical specifications, and cost estimates.
  • Mentor junior engineers and provide technical guidance within the Water Resources Team.
  • Develop technical documentation, including reports and memos, that clearly outline methodologies, assumptions, and findings.

Qualifications:
