Jobs in Walnut Creek, CA

About the role

We are seeking a Wastewater Civil Engineer who has delivered municipal wastewater engineering services and wants to help build the tools, workflows, and technical standards that make that work faster, more consistent, and more defensible. This role will help translate real civil engineering practice into product capabilities for condition assessment, risk prioritization, rehabilitation recommendations, inspection planning, cleaning planning, capital planning, and project execution. The ideal candidate has worked at a civil engineering firm or consulting practice delivering sewer collection system projects to cities and understands both the technical work and the client-service expectations behind it. This is not a traditional design- only role; it is a role for an engineer who can help SewerAI encode how high-quality wastewater engineering services should be delivered at scale.

What you'll bring

• Bachelor's degree in Civil Engineering, Environmental Engineering, or a closely related engineering field.
• 5 or more years of experience in wastewater collection systems, sewer rehabilitation, municipal utility engineering, public works, asset management, or related civil infrastructure work.
• Experience working at a civil engineering firm, consulting engineering practice, or similar professional-services environment delivering projects for cities, utilities, districts, or public agencies.
• Experience preparing or contributing to client-facing engineering deliverables such as technical memoranda, condition assessment reports, rehabilitation recommendations, CIP plans, inspection plans, cleaning plans, sewer system evaluation studies, bid documents, or council/board-ready recommendations.
• Experience reviewing CCTV inspection data, sewer defect observations, manhole inspection data, cleaning records, condition assessments, or field investigation results
• Working knowledge of wastewater collection system operations, sewer cleaning practices, inspection methods, inflow and infiltration investigations, sanitary sewer overflow causes, and rehabilitation methods.
• Ability to develop risk-based priorities and practical recommendations from imperfect asset, inspection, GIS, hydraulic, and maintenance data.
• Experience preparing engineering reports, technical memoranda, cost estimates, project scopes, schedules, bid documents, or capital planning recommendations.
• Strong coordination skills with field crews, operations staff, maintenance supervisors, contractors, consultants, agencies, and utility customers.
• Ability to work cross-functionally with software product managers, engineers, designers, data teams, and customer-facing teams.
• Strong judgment about what makes an engineering recommendation technically defensible, practical for a city to act on, and clear enough to communicate.
• Proficiency with Microsoft Excel and common engineering, mapping, reporting, or project-management tools.
