Role Summary:
As a Senior Civil Engineer, you'll lead the delivery of civil and land development designs for utility-scale renewable energy projects that support a cleaner, more resilient energy future.
In this role, you'll apply advanced civil engineering judgment, technical leadership, and a collaborative mindset to drive high-quality project execution from early design through final deliverables. You'll own complex scope across projects and portfolios, mentor and develop other engineers, and help shape the standards and processes that define engineering excellence at Revamp — while working with a mission-driven and employee-owned team that values ownership, craftsmanship, continuous improvement, and meaningful impact.

- Lead site design, grading, drainage, stormwater management, erosion control, access roads, and related civil design scope across multiple projects or an entire portfolio.
- Independently apply extensive and diversified knowledge of renewable development design principles, engineering principles, and practices across broad areas of assignment and related fields to develop practical and constructible design solutions.
- Independently evaluate, select, and adapt engineering procedures and criteria, and develop new techniques or improved processes, materials, or products.
- Seek guidance, when necessary, on unconventional or complex problems and new approaches to assignments with conflicting criteria, with completed work reviewed for application of sound professional judgment.
Project & Portfolio Delivery
- Oversee projects within a portfolio or a suite of projects, and plan, schedule, or coordinate the preparation of documents and activities for multiple major projects.
- Review and finalize scopes, budgets, and schedules, and prepare proposals to provide professional services for engineering projects or portfolios.
- Support project execution in alignment with scope, schedule, budget, and quality expectations.
- Perform essential duties, including meeting deliverables and deadlines.
- Perform additional duties as assigned or directed.
Quality, Compliance & Risk Management
- Prepare and review complete project documentation — including drawings, reports, technical studies, specifications, and supporting calculations — for conformity and quality assurance.
- Ensure compliance with company, industry, trade, jurisdictional, and client-specific standards, practices, and codes.
- Review site constraints, permitting requirements, jurisdictional standards, and project-specific criteria.
- Identify design issues, project risks, and opportunities to improve quality, constructability, or efficiency.
Collaboration & Client Communication
- Coordinate design work and cross-functionality across internal project teams, including civil, structural, electrical, project management, and other disciplines.
- Participate in and lead project meetings, communicating engineering work clearly to internal and external stakeholders.
- Act as the main point of contact for their discipline or project team, and coordinate with clients, project managers, permitting authorities, and external partners.
- Support client interaction across multiple projects and portfolios.
- Collaborate with engineers, designers, and technical staff to deliver accurate and complete project work.
Leadership, Mentorship & Technical Advisory
- Supervise, train, and mentor assigned staff engineers, and lead all staff necessary to complete assignments.
