Job Description

About Us

We are dedicated to improving urban stormwater management and flood mitigation through advanced modelling and design. Our projects span

Australia and North America

, focusing on

hydrology, hydraulic modelling, and water-sensitive urban design (WSUD)

. As we expand, we are looking for a

Stormwater Modelling Specialist

to join our team and contribute to cutting-edge stormwater solutions.If you have a background in

civil engineering, environmental science, or water resources

—and a passion for

stormwater and flood drainage modelling

—we want to hear from you!

Position Overview

As a

Stormwater Modelling Specialist

, you'll play a key role in

hydrological and hydraulic modelling

for urban stormwater systems. You'll work with

MUSIC

and

DRAINS

, while also learning and applying

North American flood drainage modelling tools

(e.g.,

EPA SWMM, HEC-RAS, InfoWorks

). Your work will support

stormwater optimization, water quality assessments, and flood risk management

.You will also assist with

AutoCAD drafting

, especially

shop drawings

, when modelling work is not required.This is a

remote role based in the Philippines/India

, with collaboration across

Australia and North America

.

What You'll Be Doing

Hydrological & Hydraulic Modelling

  • Develop stormwater models using MUSIC and DRAINS
  • Learn and apply North American flood drainage software (e.g., EPA SWMM, HEC-RAS, InfoWorks) for flood risk assessments
  • Analyze and interpret model outputs to evaluate stormwater flow, water quality, and system performance
  • Optimize stormwater infrastructure and WSUD solutions (e.g., bioretention systems, wetlands, permeable pavements)

Technical Analysis & Reporting

  • Conduct stormwater and flood impact assessments for urban development and infrastructure projects in Australia and North America
  • Prepare technical reports, recommendations, and conceptual designs for stormwater management and flood mitigation systems
  • Interpret and analyze rainfall-runoff relationships, water quality parameters, and drainage networks

Collaboration & Compliance

  • Work closely with engineers, urban planners, and environmental consultants in Australia and North America
  • Ensure compliance with regional stormwater and flood management regulations, guidelines, and best practices

Project Drawings

  • Complete soil cell design drawings for consultants' projects in Australia and North America
  • Prepare soil cell shop drawings for contractor-quoted projects in the same regions
  • Assist with AutoCAD drafting when modelling tasks are not active

Quality Control & Documentation

  • Maintain detailed records of modelling assumptions, methodologies, and outcomes
  • Help develop modelling guidelines and workflows to enhance team efficiency

Requirements

What We're Looking For
