Job Description:

Civil Engineer, Water/Wastewater - ( 220002RW )
Description
Many of the world's top engineers and scientists come together in our Water business because they view a community's interaction with water a bit differently-as a single holistic system, rather than unconnected networks divided by jurisdictional boundaries. Working throughout the hydrologic cycle, we are delivering sustainable solutions to make sure water is where it should be and available when needed. Our experts guide our work with scientific rigor, an innovative spirit, and a vision for growth. Every day, we help communities improve, reuse, and protect this precious resource for future generations. By 2025 we're hiring 2,000 people (like you) to join our team. Grow with us, H2O+U.

Stantec's Las Vegas office is the hub for a variety of projects that are large scale and challenging from volume of infrastructure, varying landscape to challenges in geography and geology. Our Conveyance team is at the forefront of developing innovative solutions to improve and expand this critical infrastructure-everything from force mains and sanitary sewers to hydraulic structures, pipelines, open channels, and storage. Work on monumental, career defining projects and join our talented team.
