Promotes and supports quality assurance and quality control processes to enhance deliverables and reduce design errors or omissions.
Performs and verifies hydraulic calculations, develops technical specifications, and prepares cost estimates.
Develops and manages design budgets for routine hydraulic scopes of work.
Provides guidance, training, and support to engineering associates and interns, helping them develop technical skills and design intuition.

Education and Experience
