Job Description
Our EPC client is currently seeking a Civil Engineer to join our team in our Houston, TX office. The Civil Engineer will be responsible for the planning, design, analysis, and execution of civil engineering projects supporting industrial facilities in the energy, chemical, and manufacturing sectors. This role will develop engineering deliverables for site development, grading, drainage, underground utilities, roadways, and related infrastructure while collaborating with multidisciplinary teams to deliver safe, efficient, and cost-effective solutions. The projects they support are small and fast paced, and this person must be comfortable handling multiple projects with different end clients at the same time. The Civil Engineer will support project managers throughout all phases of engineering and construction, ensuring compliance with applicable codes, client specifications, and company quality standards. This group is in constant communication with their Columbia team (who provide high value engineering). This team consists of a supervisor and two designers in the U.S., and seven people in Columbia: four engineers & three designers. This group supports earthworks for the entire company, not just Houston, so they are communicating with Project Managers across the country with a variety of projects.
PRIMARY RESPONSIBILITIES:
• Prepare engineering design packages including conceptual, preliminary, and detailed engineering deliverables, calculations, specifications, and construction documents.
• Perform civil engineering calculations including grading, drainage, stormwater management, earthwork quantities, utility sizing, and roadway design.
• Develop and review site layouts, grading plans, utility plans and profiles, paving plans, erosion and sediment control plans, and related civil engineering deliverables.
• Coordinate with survey teams to review and incorporate survey data into engineering designs and verify site control, benchmarks, and existing conditions.
• Perform earthwork modeling and cut/fill analyses to optimize site layouts and minimize construction costs.
• Review engineering drawings and technical documents for accuracy, constructability, and compliance with project requirements.
• Coordinate with structural, mechanical, piping, electrical, instrumentation, and process engineering disciplines to resolve design interfaces and support multidisciplinary project execution.
• Support preparation of technical specifications, material takeoffs, and construction scope documents.
• Review contractor submittals, RFIs, and field changes during construction as required.
• Participate in design reviews, constructability reviews, HAZOPs, and project quality reviews.
• Assist with field investigations, site visits, and construction support activities as needed.
• Support project planning by identifying technical risks, evaluating alternatives, and recommending practical engineering solutions.
• Ensure engineering deliverables are completed in accordance with company procedures, client requirements, applicable codes, and industry standards.
• Identify opportunities to improve engineering processes, standard details, and design efficiency.
