Seven Seas Water GroupSeven Seas Water Group (SSWG) delivers more than 20 billion gallons of water a year to industrial, governmental, municipal, and hospitality customers across the U.S., Caribbean, and Latin America. Through our Water-as-a-Service® (WaaS®) model, we design, build, own, and operate more than 200 water and wastewater treatment plants, taking on the capital and operational risk so our customers don't have to. SSWG is a portfolio company of EQT, a purpose-driven global investment organization with more than three decades of experience supporting portfolio companies in achieving sustainable growth, operational excellence and market leadership.What You'll OwnYou'll run the day-to-day of the engineering department: setting priorities, managing the team's workload, and making sure every drawing and document that goes out the door is right the first time. You'll be a technical voice in front of customers during business development, building the estimates and preliminary designs that win projects. You'll work closely with Project Management and Construction to standardize our designs, so plants get built faster and cleaner. This isn't a hands-off management job. We need someone who still knows the work well enough to jump in, make the tough call, and mentor a team that respects the decision.What You BringA bachelor's degree in chemical, Environmental, Civil Engineering, or a related field5 to 10 years in engineering, with real time on wastewater or municipal projects5 years managing engineers, whether on a project or department levelA Texas PE license, or the ability to get one within 6 monthsDeep fluency in municipal water and wastewater processes, and working knowledge of the mechanical, process, electrical, and I&C disciplines around themComfort owning the full design document set (mass balance, PFDs, P&IDs, equipment arrangements) and the document control discipline that keeps a project on trackA PMP is a plus, not a requirementWe recognize that our people are our strength and the diverse talents they bring to our global workforce are directly linked to our success.
