Civil Engineer
About the Role
We are a Miami-based civil engineering firm designing infrastructure that moves, protects, and sustains South Florida communities. We work directly with local agencies — including Miami-Dade Water and Sewer (WASD), FDOT, and municipal public works departments — on water/wastewater systems, stormwater drainage, roadway design, and site development projects.
We're growing and looking for a motivated Civil Engineer to join our team. You'll take on meaningful project responsibility from day one — preparing construction documents, attending agency meetings, and coordinating with clients and contractors in the field. This is not a drafting role. You'll be treated as an engineer.
What You'll Do
- Prepare civil engineering construction drawings and technical specifications using AutoCAD Civil 3D for roadway, drainage, water main, and site development projects.
- Attend and participate in project meetings with municipal clients and public agencies such as Miami-Dade WASD, FDOT, City of Miami, and Miami-Dade County Public Works.
- Perform hydraulic and hydrologic analysis using SWMM, HEC-HMS, and ICPR for stormwater and drainage design.
- Prepare permit applications and engineering reports for submission to regulatory agencies including SFWMD, DERM, and FDOT.
- Conduct site visits and construction observation to verify work is built per plans and specifications.
- Coordinate with subconsultants (surveyors, geotechnical, environmental) and project stakeholders throughout design and construction phases.
- Support project managers with quantity takeoffs, cost estimates, and project scheduling.
What We're Looking For (Required)
- Bachelor's degree in Civil Engineering (ABET-accredited program).
- 2+ years of civil engineering experience in South Florida, with exposure to municipal infrastructure projects.
- Proficiency in AutoCAD and/or Civil 3D for design and plan production.
- Working knowledge of FDOT Design Standards, Miami-Dade County design criteria, and Florida Building Code as it applies to site/civil work.
- Demonstrated experience — or strong familiarity — interacting with municipal and government agencies (WASD, FDOT, SFWMD, Miami-Dade County, etc.).
- Strong written and verbal communication skills; ability to represent the firm professionally with clients and agencies.
Preferred (not required)
- Engineer Intern (EI) certification / passed FE Exam.
- Experience with hydraulic modeling software: SWMM, ICPR, HEC-RAS, or WaterGEMS.
- Familiarity with SFWMD Environmental Resource Permit (ERP) process.
- Experience with GIS / ArcGIS for mapping and spatial analysis.
- Working toward or interested in obtaining Florida PE license.
Why Join Us
- Work on real projects with direct community impact across Miami-Dade and Broward counties.
- Direct mentorship and a clear path toward PE licensure — we support your exam prep and exam fees.
- Small team environment: you'll work alongside senior PEs, not get lost in a large firm hierarchy.
- Competitive salary, health insurance, PTO, and performance-based bonuses.
- Miami-based office — no relocation required.
