JOB DESCRIPTION:

Design Engineering

Provide top-quality and accurate civil design engineering expertise that meets INTEC and our clients' requirements by delivering detailed designs for roads, pavements, bridges, and associated civil elements of large-scale EPC projects by undertaking the following:

Key tasks:

• Lead the design of internal access roads, perimeter roads, and heavy-duty haulage routes for solar farms, BESS, and substations.
• Develop detailed pavement designs (flexible and rigid pavements) considering traffic loads, geotechnical conditions, and durability requirements.
• Optimize designs for constructability, long-term performance, and cost-effectiveness.
• Prepare grading plans, cut-and-fill balance reports, and stormwater drainage layouts to support EPC project development.
• Design civil elements, including drainage systems, stormwater management facilities, retaining walls, fencing layouts, cable trenches, and equipment foundations.
• Perform detailed design of small to medium span bridges, swept path analysis, culverts, and crossings to support internal access roads and heavy equipment haulage within solar farm, BESS, and substation sites.
• Develop structural and hydraulic design reports for bridge and culvert works, ensuring compliance with applicable codes, flood levels, and site-specific geotechnical conditions.
• Design site civil infrastructure including access tracks, drainage systems, culverts, and associated civil works.
• Integrate topographic and geotechnical data into earthworks and road design.
• Develop detailed design drawings, specifications, and technical reports in compliance with project and client requirements.
• Prepare pavement design reports, earthworks design reports, and material quantity take-offs for tendering and construction.
• Work closely with geomatics, structural, and electrical design teams to ensure seamless integration of road and pavement works with overall EPC project layouts.
• Review and validate external consultant and subcontractor design deliverables for accuracy and compliance.
• Ensure designs comply with relevant Australian and New Zealand standards, codes, and regulatory requirements.
• Drive continuous improvement in design processes, templates, and methodologies to improve efficiency, quality, and project outcomes.
