Job Description
AECOM is actively seeking a highly motivated Water/Wastewater Hydraulic Modeling Engineer to join our Colorado water, wastewater, and conveyance group. The ideal candidate will have a strong background in civil or environmental engineering with a focus on hydraulic analysis of water distribution and wastewater collection systems. The primary responsibility of this role is to conduct hydraulic computations and computer modeling and analysis of water and wastewater systems using specialized software. Desired but not required skills include experience in hydraulic transient analysis. This position offers the opportunity to work on diverse projects and collaborate with multidisciplinary teams to address complex engineering challenges in the water and wastewater sector.
Responsibilities include, but not limited to:
Conduct hydraulic computations and computer modeling and analysis of water distribution and wastewater collection systems using software tools such as InfoWater, InfoSewer, WaterGEMS, SewerGEMS, H2OMap, EPANET, SWMM / PCSWMM and InfoWorks.
Develop calibrated hydraulic models of existing water and wastewater infrastructure to simulate system performance under various scenarios.
Analyze and interpret modeling results to provide insights into system behavior and identify opportunities for optimization and improvement.
Collaborate with engineers, planners, and other stakeholders to integrate modeling insights into the design and planning of water and wastewater projects.
Work with ArcGIS, AutoCAD, or relational database management software (such as MS-Access, SQL Server, or Oracle) to integrate spatial data into modeling workflows.
Prepare technical reports, presentations, and documentation to communicate modeling findings and recommendations effectively using strong communication skills.
Provide technical support and guidance to project teams and clients regarding water and wastewater modeling methodologies and software applications.
Mentor, train, and guide junior hydraulic modelers and engineers on water and wastewater hydraulic modeling analyses.
Stay updated on industry best practices, emerging technologies, and regulatory requirements related to water and wastewater modeling.
Directs project team and client compliance with contract terms and monitors subcontractors' compliance with contractual commitments.
Prepares project work plan, scope, schedule, and budget, and communicates these to project team members; monitors/manages project production for compliance with schedule, budget, and quality objectives.
