About This Job

At AKS Engineering & Forestry, we’re all about building better communities—literally. We help shape neighborhoods, create spaces for businesses, and design the infrastructure that makes life better for everyone. As a locally owned firm, we’ve spent the past 30 years partnering with public and private clients to deliver high-quality engineering solutions across the Pacific Northwest.

If you’re ready to make a big impact on your community and grow a high-performing wastewater team, we want to talk to you. As a Senior Utility Engineer at AKS, you’ll lead vital infrastructure projects that serve cities, counties, and districts—while mentoring junior engineers and helping to expand our Public Works practice. This is more than just a design role; it’s an opportunity to shape how wastewater work gets done at a firm known for its collaboration and technical excellence.


What You’ll Do

Lead the planning, design, and delivery of wastewater collection systems, pump stations, and treatment facilities.
Develop project scopes, budgets, and schedules, ensuring quality and efficiency at every stage.
Mentor junior staff and provide technical leadership to project teams.
Work directly with public agencies and utility districts to understand needs, build trust, and deliver successful outcomes..
Manage and review work prepared in AutoCAD Civil 3D, SewerCAD, and related software.
Support business development through client relationships and proposals (as your experience allows).


Who You Are

Licensed Professional Engineer (PE) in Oregon or Washington (or able to obtain within 6 months).
10+ years of experience designing wastewater infrastructure for public or private clients.
Strong working knowledge of AutoCAD Civil 3D and wastewater modeling software (e.g., SewerCAD).
Excellent communicator and collaborator who enjoys working with multidisciplinary teams.
Self-motivated with strong organizational and time-management skills.
Committed to mentoring others and developing talent from within.


Nice to Have

Experience managing full lifecycle projects for Oregon or Washington public agencies.
Background in trenchless design and construction techniques.
Master planning or hydraulic modeling experience.
Field engineering or construction inspection experience.
Ability to confidently present to clients, councils, and community groups.

Meaningful Growth: Whether you’re just starting out or looking to advance, we offer hands-on training, mentorship, and clear paths for professional development so you can grow with purpose.
