About The Position

Arcadis’ Industrial Water Treatment and Optimization team is seeking an experienced Industrial Water Wastewater Process Engineer with 7+ years of consulting engineering experience to contribute to its expanding portfolio of industrial water and wastewater design projects. The engineer will serve as a process engineer on projects, applying treatment processes and technologies that may include physical/chemical primary treatment, biological treatment, membrane treatment, adsorption, filtration, disinfection, thermal evaporation, and crystallization. The role receives technical mentoring and guidance from a senior process engineer, delegates calculations and drawings to junior staff, and collaborates with multidisciplinary design teams to implement complex treatment solutions. The position supports projects from study through design, construction, startup, commissioning, and operation and maintenance. It involves preparing process design drawings, specifications, calculations, plans, construction documents, and other technical deliverables; coordinating with project teams; and providing guidance to early-career engineers. Field work includes surveys and data gathering, construction quality assurance, inspections, and bench- and pilot-scale treatability testing at client sites or in Arcadis’ lab. The engineer may also assist with commissioning and startup, train plant staff, present to clients and professional meetings, manage projects, and support business development through proposals and client meetings. This is a hybrid role supporting client facilities and projects across the United States, with occasional international assignments.
