Civil Engineer

Job Description:

• As a Civil Engineer (on-off site), you will be responsible for conducting on-site visits to our Ice plant location(s), performing ocular inspection, machine operation, and assisting in the creation of accurate floor plans and infrastructure assessments. You will ensure that our facility's civil infrastructure is suitable for ongoing operations and any planned expansions or modifications. Your role will include measuring and evaluating existing structures, recommending improvements, and producing detailed reports and floor plans as necessary.

-A Civil Engineer willing to work in either the office or the field will be responsible for planning, designing, and overseeing the construction and maintenance of infrastructure projects like roads, buildings, and bridges. Their duties will include a mix of design and analysis in an office setting, and site inspections, project management, and supervision on-site. Key responsibilities involve ensuring projects are safe, sustainable, and meet all regulations, managing budgets, and coordinating with various stakeholders.

Office-based responsibilities:

• Design and planning: Develop detailed project designs, blueprints, and specifications using computer modeling and other software.
• Feasibility and cost analysis: Conduct technical studies, assess feasibility, and prepare cost estimates for projects.
• Regulatory compliance: Review and ensure compliance with local, state, and federal regulations, permits, and environmental standards.
• Project management: Create and manage project schedules, budgets, and reports.
• Documentation: Prepare technical documents and reports.

Field-based responsibilities:

• Site supervision: Oversee on-site construction activities to ensure they align with plans and specifications.
• Site inspections: Conduct regular site inspections to monitor progress and quality.
• Risk assessment: Assess potential risks and provide on-site advice and solutions for problems that arise.
• Stakeholder coordination: Interact with contractors, subcontractors, and other stakeholders on the ground.
• Quality control: Ensure that construction materials and methods meet project requirements.

Common responsibilities:

• Project management: Manage project timelines, resources, and budgets, and track progress.
• Team and stakeholder collaboration: Work with architects, surveyors, contractors, and government agencies.
• Problem-solving: Apply mathematical and engineering principles to solve complex problems.
• Communication: Clearly communicate project updates and technical information to a wide range of stakeholders.

Common Core Qualifications Both roles require the following foundational qualifications:

• Education: A Bachelor's degree in Civil Engineering from an accredited program.
• Licensure: Progression toward or attainment of a Professional Engineer (PE) license is crucial for career advancement, as it allows an engineer to supervise others and take responsibility for projects.
• Core Knowledge: Strong technical, analytical, and problem-solving skills, as well as an understanding of engineering principles, building codes, and safety standards.
• Software Proficiency: Knowledge of key software packages, especially AutoCAD/Civil 3D and Microsoft Office Suite (Word, Excel).
• Communication: Excellent oral and written communication skills to liaise with diverse stakeholders.

On-Site Engineer (Contracting/Construction) On-site engineers, often called site or contracting engineers, primarily focus on implementing designs during construction and managing the day-to-day operations at a project location. Key Qualifications/Skills:

• Practical Experience: Hands-on experience in the construction industry is highly recommended, as it provides a practical understanding of construction methods, materials, and field conditions.
• Project and People Management: Strong skills in managing teams, coordinating activities, and liaising with contractors and clients.
• Supervision: Ability to oversee work, ensure safety compliance, and monitor progress.
• Problem-Solving: The ability to resolve unexpected problems and deficiencies creatively as they emerge on site.
• Physical Fitness and Stamina: The role often involves physically demanding outdoor work in varying conditions.
• Site-Specific Technical Skills: Proficiency in surveying and setting-out, earthworks/grading, drainage, and concrete technology.

Off-Site Engineer (Consulting/Design)Off-site engineers, typically consulting or design engineers, are mainly office-based and focus on the planning, design, analysis, and management of projects before and during construction. Key Qualifications/Skills:

• Advanced Technical & Design Skills: Expertise in complex design software and analysis tools (e.g., AutoCAD Civil 3D, GIS applications, structural analysis software).
• Analytical Thinking: Powerful analytical and critical thinking skills for complex calculations and design specifications.
• Regulatory Knowledge: In-depth knowledge of local, state, and federal regulations and experience in obtaining agency approvals/permits.
• Data Management: Skills related to interpreting survey reports, processing data, and preparing detailed reports, plans, specifications, and cost estimates.
• Specialization: Potential for advanced knowledge in specific areas like structural engineering, water/wastewater modeling, or environmental engineering, which may require a master's degree or specialized certification.

Ultimately, the best civil engineers often possess a blend of both field and office experience, as this dual perspective enhances their overall capabilities.
