Core Responsibilities

AMD Treatment & Water Quality

• Lead the planning, design, and implementation of active and passive AMD treatment systems, including chemical treatment systems, constructed wetlands, limestone drains, anoxic limestone drains, settling ponds, and hybrid approaches.
• Apply strong water chemistry and geochemical expertise to evaluate AMD sources, interpret analytical data, and develop effective treatment strategies.
• Perform and oversee operation and maintenance (O&M) planning, performance evaluations, and long-term optimization of AMD treatment facilities.

Civil Engineering, Site Design & Grading

• Perform and oversee civil site design for AMD treatment projects, including grading plans, drainage design, access roads, embankments, berms, channels, and erosion and sediment control measures.
• Develop earthwork quantities, grading calculations, and construction details to support treatment system constructability and long-term performance.
• Design and review site stormwater management features, including conveyance channels, spillways, culverts, and outlet structures associated with treatment systems and mine reclamation sites.
• Coordinate grading and hydraulic design to ensure compliance with regulatory requirements, long-term stability, and constructability in remote or mine-impacted terrain.
• Support construction sequencing and phasing considerations related to grading, materials handling, and access constraints.

Project Delivery & Leadership

• Prepare and review engineering reports, civil and treatment system design plans, technical specifications, cost estimates, and permit applications in accordance with state and federal requirements.
• Coordinate and maintain effective working relationships with state regulatory agencies (e.g., Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection (DEP), West Virginia DEP, Illinois Department of natural resources, etc.) watershed organizations, and non-profit entities focused on water quality improvement and environmental restoration.
• Provide technical leadership and mentoring to junior staff and contribute to multidisciplinary teams including environmental scientists, geologists, and construction professionals.
• Support agency coordination, funding applications (e.g., AML, watershed grants), and stakeholder engagement related to AMD treatment and reclamation projects.
• Provide construction-phase support, including responding to RFIs, reviewing submittals, and performing site visits during grading and treatment system construction.

Client Engagement & Business Growth

• Serve as a senior client-facing technical leader, building trusted advisor relationships with state agencies, watershed organizations, non-profits, and public-sector sponsors.
• Support business development activities, including opportunity identification, pursuit strategy, proposal development, scope definition, and fee development for AMD and mine water treatment projects.
• Collaborate with Atlas BD and leadership teams to expand existing client relationships and programmatic contracts related to AML, watershed restoration, and mine reclamation.
• Participate in industry forums, technical committees, conferences, and stakeholder meetings to elevate Atlas profile and identify emerging opportunities.
• Contribute to the growth of Atlas AMD treatment practice, helping shape market positioning, technical approaches, and staffing strategies.

• Professional Engineer (P.E.) or Professional Geologist (P.G.), preferably in Pennsylvania (or ability to obtain PA licensure).
• Bachelors degree or higher in Civil, Environmental, Chemical Engineering, Geology, Hydrogeology or a related field.
• 1012 years of progressive experience in AMD treatment system design and implementation.
• Demonstrated civil engineering experience including grading, drainage, and site design for environmental or mine-related projects.
• Experience working with coal mining-related AMD in the Appalachian, Illinois, and/or anthracite coal basins.
• Strong background in water chemistry, AMD characterization, and treatment performance evaluation.
• Experience preparing construction drawings, specifications, cost estimates, and technical reports.
• Familiarity with state and federal regulatory frameworks governing mine drainage, land disturbance, and water quality.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience working directly with watershed groups and environmental non-profits.
• Knowledge of AML reclamation programs, grant-funded remediation, and public-sector project delivery.
• Experience supporting construction administration for treatment or reclamation projects.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to present technical information to clients, regulatory agencies and non-technical stakeholders.
• Ability to develop and maintain relationships with client counterparts

Why Join Atlas
