• Deliver moderate portions of broader civil/site infrastructure assignments with limited supervision, to agreed budget and programme.
• Gather, interpret and correlate engineering data using established procedures.

• Bulk earthworks (grading, levels coordination, cut/fill balance considerations)
• Basic water and wastewater infrastructure (reticulation layouts, services coordination and constructability)
• WSUD inputs (where applicable) to support compliant and practical outcomes.
• Apply a strong quality focus: checking, design verification, documentation accuracy, and consistent adherence to standards.
• Propose practical approaches to new problems using modifications of standard methods and previous project learnings.
• Coordinate with other disciplines and stakeholders to resolve interfaces (utilities/services coordination, site constraints, staging and buildability).
• Provide guidance and mentoring to junior engineers, supporting capability uplift and good engineering habits.

Requirements

• 5-10 years' post-graduate experience in civil/site infrastructure design roles.
• Working knowledge of Austroads and an ability to interpret and apply local council/authority requirements.
• Demonstrated experience in stormwater (pit and pipe) and bulk earthworks design; water/wastewater and services coordination experience is highly regarded.
• Exposure to WSUD design or integration is a plus.
