  • Manage civil permitting processes including grading permits, NPDES/stormwater permits, SWPPP, floodplain analysis (FEMA/FIRM), and local land use entitlements.
  • Coordinate with structural, mechanical, electrical, and process disciplines to ensure civil design integrates equipment pads, fuel systems, exhaust routing, and heavy transport/access requirements.
  • Develop and review civil drawings, specifications, and QA/QC packages; manage deliverable schedules with EPC civil subconsultants.
  • Support site selection activities including due diligence, constraints mapping, and civil constructability assessments for greenfield and brownfield sites.
  • Engage directly with local municipalities, utility authorities, and state agencies to advance permitting timelines and resolve design issues.
  • Develop civil standards, design guidelines, and BOD templates to support Fleet's repeatable, scalable site delivery model.
  • Support commissioning and site acceptance activities; troubleshoot civil-related construction issues during project execution.

    • Basic Qualifications

  • Bachelor's degree in Civil Engineering or related discipline.
  • Professional Engineer (PE) license required (or ability to obtain it within 12 months).
  • 7+ years in civil/site engineering for large-scale industrial, power generation, or mission-critical infrastructure projects.

    • Preferred Qualification

  • Experience supporting civil design for power plants, data centers, or large industrial campuses.

  • Proficiency with Civil 3D, AutoCAD, or similar civil design software.
  • Experience managing civil scopes within EPC project delivery frameworks.
