Reno is growing rapidly—and the most successful engineers aren't just designing projects, they're helping define the future of the region.

At Atwell, you'll have the opportunity to lead residential, commercial, mixed-use, and industrial land development projects throughout Reno, Sparks, and Northern Nevada. You'll work directly with developers, municipalities, and decision-makers while taking projects from concept through construction.

What You'll Do
  • Lead site civil and land development projects throughout the Reno-Sparks market.
  • Design and oversee grading, drainage, stormwater, utility, roadway, and civil infrastructure improvements.
  • Manage projects from due diligence and entitlements through construction.
  • Coordinate permitting and approvals with local municipalities and regulatory agencies.
  • Partner directly with clients to deliver successful residential, commercial, mixed-use, and industrial developments.
  • Help grow Atwell's presence in one of the West's fastest-growing development markets.
What We're Looking For

Required

  • Bachelor's Degree in Civil Engineering.
  • Professional Engineer (PE) license.
  • 4+ years of civil land development experience.
  • Experience with site development design, grading, drainage, utilities, and permitting.
  • Proficiency with AutoCAD Civil 3D.

Preferred

  • Experience with WaterCAD, StormCAD, and SewerCAD.
  • Familiarity with Reno, Sparks, Washoe County, or Northern Nevada permitting processes.
  • Strong project management and client relationship skills.
Why Atwell?
  • Work on projects that directly influence the growth and development of Northern Nevada.
  • Gain visibility and ownership typically reserved for more senior engineers at larger firms.
  • Collaborate with some of the region's most active developers and stakeholders.
  • Join a culture that values entrepreneurial thinking, technical excellence, and career advancement.

If you're a licensed PE who wants to lead impactful land development projects and leave a lasting mark on the Reno region, we'd love to connect.

PE license and 4+ years of civil land development experience are required for consideration.
