Build Your World, Build Your Career …

V3 is more than just a place to work. It is a place where you can make an impact, build your skills, create your path and dive into meaningful, rewarding work that is challenging, inspiring and fun!

As a civil engineering consulting firm, we transform communities. Our diverse array of specialties includes civil engineering, contracting, environmental, planning, landscape architecture and surveying services. We believe in excellence in all we do and have an unwavering commitment to success. We have over 425 employees, with an office in Sherwood Park Alberta and offices in the United States. We are a growing firm and that creates exciting opportunities for our staff!

Here’s how you fit into the V3 Team:

We are seeking a talented and detail-oriented Municipal Design Engineer / Technologist to join our Transportation and Municipal Engineering Group. This position focuses on the design and planning of municipal infrastructure projects, including streets, streetscapes, stormwater management, drainage systems, water distribution, and water treatment systems. As part of our office-based team, you’ll collaborate with clients and colleagues to deliver innovative and sustainable solutions that enhance communities and improve urban environments. Strong technical expertise and a passion for municipal design are key to success in this role.

Here’s what you’ll do:

• Work closely with teams and clients to prepare design drawings, technical specifications, and construction documents for our projects.
• Grading and utility design for municipal projects.
• Prepare servicing design reports.
• Prepare Erosion and Sediment Control plans.
• Prepare construction contracts and specification documents.
• Provide design support to construction field staff.
• Software modelling for drainage, water, and sewer systems.
• Prepare and oversee the preparation of quantity take offs, and opinions of probable cost.
• Maintain regular communication with Clients to provide status updates.
• Provide leadership and mentoring to junior staff.

Here’s some additional skill sets we are looking for: 

• Designation as a P.Eng. or P.L. (Eng.)
• 5 – 10 years of design experience.
• Experience in Civil 3D.
• While not required, knowledge of WaterCAD, XPSWMM, MIKE URBAN, and/or ArcGIS would be beneficial to the role.
• Strong ability to manage time with multiple projects and deadlines.
• Competent in Microsoft Office programs including Word, Excel, and Outlook.

What more can we tell you?

Our newly-renovated office is located on the western edge of Sherwood Park, close to the Anthony Henday Drive and about 20 minutes from downtown Edmonton. Our projects that you’d be engaged in typically are built in and around Edmonton and other northern Alberta municipalities, although we do support our Saskatchewan and southern Alberta efforts from the Sherwood Park office.

The job features competitive pay and paid time off and a comprehensive benefits package. However, we think a real difference maker is our collegial team-based environment and the opportunity for you to not get typecast into one role or one type of project.

By now, you’re probably wondering what’s important to us…

We wouldn’t have been named to the Top 5 list of North America’s Best Architecture/Engineering Firm to Work For without a passionate focus on our people. Because our employees play such an important part in defining who we are, we place a premium on character and cultural fit. Our website clearly communicates how much we value our team. As a consulting firm entrusted by our clients to provide solutions and quality advice, we’re only as good as each member of our combined team. Our win‐win scenario is when you’re as happy working with us, as we are in calling you our friend and teammate.
