Civil (Environmental) Design Engineer – Water Resources & Hydraulic

Civil (Environmental) Design Engineer – Water Resources & Hydraulic Location: Makati City, Manila, Philippines Role Summary: Deliver high‑quality hydraulic, hydrological, and water resources design packages for Solar Farm, BESS, and Substation EPC projects in Australia and New Zealand, often in coastal and environmentally sensitive areas. QUALIFICATIONS Minimum 8 years proven experience in civil and water resources design, within EPC or consultancy, with a track record of delivering large‑scale infrastructure or renewable energy projects. Bachelor’s degree in Civil / Environmental Engineering (Master’s degree in Water resources and Hydraulics is preferred) Competent in structural building codes/legislation in Australia and New Zealand Demonstrated ability to independently lead and deliver complex EPC projects from concept through detailed design and IFC stage. Proficient in TUFLOW (1D/2D), OptiSurface, Civil 3D, AutoCAD, ArcGIS, Navisworks, Revit or equivalent. Confident in Microsoft Office applications (Word, Excel, Outlook etc.) Ability to prepare quantity take-offs, material estimation, and preparation of bill of material list from drawings. Experience building and maintaining strong customer relationships. Able and willing to travel internationally (mainly between Australia & NZ). Collaborate with preconstruction and project controls teams to ensure technical design inputs are reflected accurately in schedules and risk plans. Familiar with project delivery frameworks (e.g., PMBOK, PRINCE2) as applied in design and preconstruction phases. JOB DESCRIPTION Provide top‑quality and accurate civil and hydraulic/water resources design expertise that meets INTEC and our clients’ requirements by delivering detailed designs for hydrology, drainage, flood management, earthworks, and associated civil works for large‑scale Solar Farm, BESS, and Substation EPC projects by undertaking the following: Prepare Preliminary Hydrological and Flooding Reports and conduct detailed hydrological and flooding analyses. Develop and deliver Flooding Impact Assessments and Reports in compliance with regulatory requirements. Perform 1D/2D hydraulic modelling using TUFLOW for site‑specific flood risk assessments and mitigation planning. Develop Drainage Design Calculations and models for pre‑ and post‑development conditions. Deliver Post‑Operation Drainage Models to ensure long‑term performance of site drainage systems. Design culverts, channels, stormwater detention/retention systems, and outlet structures. Perform Earth Movement Calculations, including cut/fill balance and grading assessments to optimize landform for drainage and constructability. Apply OptiSurface or equivalent tools to design efficient landform layouts for stormwater and surface runoff management. Develop Erosion and Sedimentation Control Plans for the construction period to mitigate environmental impact. Prepare Environmental Water Design Reports to address coastal and site‑specific hydrological conditions. Ensure compliance with environmental permitting, coastal zone management requirements, and best‑practice water management standards. Provide hydraulic and water design inputs to broader civil design works, including site grading, access roads, cable trenches, and substation platforms. Integrate hydraulic, hydrological, and environmental design with structural, geotechnical, and geomatics teams. Prepare comprehensive hydrological, hydraulic, drainage, and environmental reports, including models, calculations, and drawings. Ensure all designs are safe, cost‑effective, environmentally sustainable, and compliant with Australian and New Zealand standards. FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT AND REPORTING Responsible for ensuring that decisions are made within approved business unit budget and financial delegated authority. Provide regular reporting to Engineering Manager AU/NZ on status of all design work. Contribute to feasibility and option analysis in the early stages to support business case development and tender responses. Continuously review and optimize foundation and structural design methodologies to improve cost efficiency, constructability, and alignment with project execution strategies. Contribute to the development of standardized design procedures, calculation templates, and reporting formats to enhance consistency and efficiency across EPC projects. Strong focus on identifying and suggesting ways to improve practices and processes that are hampering the smooth operation of the day to day running of the project. Support the development of innovative strategies to ensure operational efficiencies, processes and practices. Proactively seek opportunities to save unnecessary costs to the project (without compromising quality). Contribute to the project review process, ensuring problems identified and possible solutions developed and feedback to operations team. Identify gaps or inefficiencies in the handover process between design, procurement, and construction teams, and suggest improvements. Provide technical insights to improve constructability and reduce rework during construction. TEAMWORK AND SUPPORT Demonstrate collaborative and inclusive personal leadership, empowering others to perform by providing advice, support and assistance as needed. Role model expected behaviours and lead by example, proactively championing our values, mission and company/business unit initiatives. Be seen as a positive role model at INTEC, acting with professionalism and integrity. Always act for the good of INTEC and in full support of our goals. Foster and develop effective relationships with team members and all other internal and external customers. Collaborate with preconstruction and project controls teams to ensure technical design inputs are reflected accurately in schedules and risk plans. Foster and support a learning environment within the team by sharing technical knowledge and expertise, providing training to other team members as required, and sharing relevant customer knowledge to enhance customer service. #J-18808-Ljbffr
