This remote position will provide technical and project leadership throughout the complete infrastructure lifecycle, including capital planning, engineering design, design-build delivery, construction administration, startup, commissioning, operations, maintenance, and asset optimization. The successful candidate will have experience with municipal and industrial water and wastewater systems, capital improvement programs, treatment-process evaluation, operational performance, regulatory compliance, and owner-side representation.

Although the position is remote, the Principal Water/Wastewater Engineer will be expected to maintain regular communication with clients and project teams, travel to client and project locations, and collaborate effectively across multiple Stanley Consultants offices and disciplines.

Lead the planning, analysis, design, construction, startup, operation, rehabilitation, and optimization of municipal, federal, and industrial water and wastewater systems.

Serve as Project Manager, Technical Lead, Engineer of Record, or Principal-in-Charge, as appropriate for individual assignments.

Develop facility master plans, capital improvement recommendations, lifecycle evaluations, budgets, schedules, and implementation strategies.

Lead design-build, design-build-operate-maintain, retrofit, rehabilitation, and conventional design-bid-build projects.

Perform or direct process analysis, treatment optimization, technology evaluation, chemical trials, equipment selection, and value engineering.

Lead projects involving:

Municipal, commercial, and industrial water and wastewater systems
Wastewater collection, pumping, treatment, and biosolids management
Treatment-plant rehabilitation, retrofit, and operational optimization
Industrial wastewater characterization, pretreatment, treatment, reuse, and discharge
Physical, chemical, and biological treatment processes, controls, and chemical-feed systems
Asset management, CMMS, condition assessment, resilience, and capital planning
System testing, startup, commissioning, and operational transition
Environmental permitting, NPDES compliance, and federal infrastructure contracts
High-strength wastewater, water reuse, recovery, and zero-liquid-discharge applications
Review project requirements following award and confirm scope, work procedures, schedule, budget, staffing, quality-management requirements, vendor needs, and project risks.
Prepare or oversee project work plans, project initiation documents, schedules, budgets, staffing plans, and project closeout activities.
Lead preparation and review of calculations, technical reports, plans, specifications, cost estimates, permit applications, and construction documents.
Coordinate technical work across civil, mechanical, electrical, instrumentation and controls, structural, architectural, environmental, and CADD disciplines.
Provide technical oversight during construction, including submittal and shop-drawing reviews, requests for information, change evaluations, progress meetings, site observations, startup, commissioning, and project closeout.
Apply Stanley Consultants’ quality-management procedures and applicable standards, including AWWA, WEF, Ten States Standards, state regulatory requirements, and client-specific design criteria.

Manage project scope, schedule, budget, quality, communications, resources, procurement, and risk.

Establish clear assignments, deliverable dates, review responsibilities, and communication protocols for geographically distributed project teams.

Monitor project performance and take timely corrective action when scope, schedule, budget, staffing, or quality concerns arise.

Maintain consistent communication with clients, project teams, subcontractors, and Stanley Consultants leadership.

Support contract negotiations, amendments, scope development, fee preparation, and project financial management.

Deliver projects in accordance with client expectations and Stanley Consultants’ project-management and quality requirements.

Bachelor’s degree in Civil, Environmental, Mechanical, or Chemical Engineering from an accredited institution.

At least 20 years of progressive experience in water, wastewater, environmental, industrial, or public infrastructure.

Professional Engineer license in a U.S. jurisdiction, or ability to obtain one within six months; ability to obtain additional registrations as needed.

Experience delivering municipal and industrial water and wastewater projects through planning, design, construction, startup, operations, and rehabilitation.

Experience evaluating industrial wastewater characteristics, treatment, discharge, permitting, and water-reuse requirements.

Knowledge of industrial treatment technologies, including clarification, filtration, membranes, biological treatment, ion exchange, reverse osmosis, demineralization, and advanced reuse.

Ability to integrate water and wastewater systems with industrial processes, utilities, equipment, and site infrastructure.

Experience with alternative delivery methods such as design-build, progressive design-build, construction manager at risk, or engineer-procure-construct.

Experience collaborating with owners, contractors, vendors, and multidisciplinary teams.

Project-management experience overseeing scope, schedule, budget, quality, staffing, communications, and risk.

Strong communication and technical-writing skills, with proficiency in Microsoft 365.

Ability to work effectively and remotely and travel as needed, including overnight.

Participation in AWWA, WEF, or related state and regional organizations is desirable.

The position is remote, but success will require active participation with clients and Stanley Consultants teams. The selected candidate will be expected to:

Maintain a professional and reliable home-office environment.
Be available for client and team meetings during established core working hours.
Use Microsoft Teams and other approved collaboration platforms for regular communication.
Travel to Stanley Consultants offices when needed for project workshops, training, interviews, and team-development activities.
