  • Stormwater best management practice design
  • Preparing plan check comments on behalf of local municipalities on submitted Storm Water Quality Management Plans (SWQMP) and drainage studies

For more detail on types of work that may be performed, please visit -resources-engineer/. This is a full-time position.

Remote Work Note:
