We believe that each day is an opportunity to support one another, to support our clients, and to support our communities. If you feel the same, then you’ve found your future.

We are seeking a Senior Water Resources / Senior Dam Engineer to join our growing Water Resources team. This is a newly created role driven by a significant and expanding portfolio of dam repair, dam removal, and climate-resiliency projects across New England.

This position is ideal for a licensed Professional Engineer with deep technical expertise in dam engineering and water resources, strong project management skills, and a passion for resilient, sustainable infrastructure solutions.

Key Responsibilities

  • Lead and manage dam repair and dam removal projects from planning through design, permitting, and construction support
  • Develop project scopes, fees, schedules, and budgets; oversee contracts and project delivery
  • Prepare and review engineering analyses, technical reports, plans, specifications, and cost estimates
  • Coordinate and support local, state, and federal permitting and grant applications
  • Apply hydrologic and hydraulic modeling to support design and regulatory submissions
  • Collaborate with clients, regulators, and internal multidisciplinary teams across New England
  • Support business development efforts, including funding strategy development and proposals
  • Mentor and provide technical oversight to junior and mid-level engineers

Skills, Knowledge and Expertise

  • Professional Engineer (PE) license
  • 10+ years of experience in water resources and dam engineering

  • Proficiency with hydrologic and hydraulic modeling software
  • Working knowledge of CAD-based design tools
  • Strong project management, communication, and mentoring skills
  • Ability to travel up to 10–15% throughout New England


This is a hybrid role, offering the best of both worlds—collaborate in-office with a high-performing team and enjoy the flexibility of working remotely part of the week. We're committed to supporting work-life balance while maintaining strong team connection and project delivery.
