Position Overview

This is a leadership opportunity for a civil engineer who wants more than project delivery—they want influence, team leadership, and a clear path toward long-term ownership. As a Principal Civil Engineer, you will lead complex site development and stormwater infrastructure projects while helping shape the strategic direction of the engineering team. You’ll oversee technical execution, mentor junior staff, and drive multidisciplinary coordination across commercial, municipal, industrial, and land development projects.

This role is designed for someone who thrives balancing high-level engineering with client leadership and operational oversight. You’ll play a central role in guiding projects from concept through permitting and construction while helping strengthen client relationships and expand project opportunities. The firm values entrepreneurial thinking, collaborative problem-solving, and engineers who want to build both projects and long-term impact.

Core Responsibilities

• Lead the design and execution of site development projects including grading, drainage, utilities, roadway infrastructure, and stormwater systems
• Oversee hydrology and hydraulic analysis, stormwater management planning, and implementation of low-impact development strategies
• Direct multidisciplinary coordination efforts between civil engineering teams, clients, architects, contractors, and regulatory agencies
• Manage project schedules, budgets, staffing, and overall project delivery to ensure successful outcomes
• Review and approve engineering calculations, reports, specifications, and construction documents for technical accuracy and code compliance
• Lead permitting efforts, including agency coordination, permit applications, and responses to review comments
• Integrate sustainable design principles and stormwater best management practices (BMPs) into project planning and execution
• Conduct site visits and construction-phase inspections to verify compliance with project specifications and quality standards
• Mentor and develop junior engineers, designers, and technical staff while supporting long-term team growth
• Contribute to business development efforts, client relationship management, and strategic project pursuits
• Support operational leadership initiatives and participate in long-term planning tied to the firm’s ownership growth strategy

Required Qualifications

• Education: Bachelor’s Degree in Civil Engineering or related field required; Master’s Degree preferred
• Licensure: Active Professional Engineer (PE) license required
• Experience: 8–10+ years of progressive civil engineering experience focused on site development and stormwater management
• Technical Expertise: Strong background in grading, drainage design, stormwater systems, utilities, roadway design, and permitting coordination
• Software: Advanced proficiency in AutoCAD Civil 3D, Hydraflow, StormCAD, or similar engineering tools
• Project Leadership: Proven ability to manage multidisciplinary projects, budgets, schedules, and engineering teams
• Communication: Strong client-facing communication skills and ability to coordinate effectively with agencies, consultants, and contractors
• Regulatory Knowledge: Deep understanding of local, state, and federal environmental regulations and development standards
