Job Description:
Senior Water Resources Engineer - ( 2300013P )
Description
Many of the world's top engineers and scientists come together in
our Water business because they view a community's interaction with
water a bit differently-as a single holistic system, rather than
unconnected networks divided by jurisdictional boundaries. Working
throughout the hydrologic cycle, we are delivering sustainable
solutions to make sure water is where it should be and available
when needed. Our experts guide our work with scientific rigor, an
innovative spirit, and a vision for growth. Every day, we help
communities improve, reuse, and protect this precious resource for
future generations. By 2025 we're hiring 2,000 people (like you) to
join our team. Grow with us, H2O+U.
