About The Position

Lead the Future of Clean Water! Are you passionate about shaping the future of water infrastructure? Do you thrive at the intersection of engineering excellence and strategic growth? Join us as a Potable Water Engineering Leader and drive innovative solutions that ensure safe, sustainable water for communities across the region. This position can be based out of any of our 17 Midwest office locations. As a firm, MSA provides comprehensive water services, including planning, design, and construction, for drinking water systems. You will work to address a wide range of needs, from routine water supply to complex treatment and distribution challenges, offering solutions for both site-specific and community-wide water management. This role is a planned strategic hire as MSA's Potable Water teams continue to expand, and we are looking for the candidate to help take us to the next level! This is a full-time, salaried position that is eligible for Flex Time as well as remote/hybrid working arrangements. Flex time essentially means if you work 42 hours, you have 2 hours to use as time off in the future. What does it mean to serve communities for over 100 years? It means doing the type of work that helps people raise a family, grow a business, engage with their neighbors, and enjoy a variety of unique, enduring spaces that form the fabric of “home.” MSA’s roots reach back to 1919. What began with an entrepreneurial solo practitioner in Baraboo, Wisconsin, has grown into a robust and thriving company of over 400 employee owners conducting work across the country. As a 100% employee-owned firm, when we say we “own” our work, we mean it. We stand behind the quality of our designs, the integrity of our people, and the generations of client relationships we’ve formed based on trust, firm handshakes, and the belief that together — we can accomplish anything. MSA seeks to provide a workplace where everyone can feel secure in bringing their authentic selves to work, where opportunities to learn and succeed are afforded to all, and in which diversity of perspective leads to an innovative and successful employee-owned firm.
