Civil Engineer/Owners Rep

Lead Civil Engineer to join a small, on-site engineering team supporting the design and construction of multi-gigawatt gas and nuclear generation facilities. This execution-focused role provides technical leadership and oversight of A/E firms and EPC contractors to ensure designs are constructible, code-compliant, and aligned with field execution. The position requires strong technical judgment and hands-on construction experience to identify risks early, challenge assumptions, and drive safe, efficient, and timely delivery. Nuclear experience is a plus, but demonstrated industrial or power plant construction capability is the priority. This role will directly contribute to delivering one of the largest power infrastructure programs in the world.Key ResponsibilitiesServe as the Owner's CSA technical authority for gas and nuclear generation, substations, cooling systems, and campus infrastructureProvide technical oversight of external A/E firms and EPC contractors to ensure designs are complete, code-compliant, constructible, and execution-readyPerform limited in-house CSA design development, as required, to define Owner intent, address urgent field or design issues, and bridge scope gaps between A/E and EPC teamsReview and validate civil, structural, and architectural designs, engineering assumptions (including geotechnical recommendations), and structural approaches for constructability and alignment with field executionIdentify design gaps, risks, inefficiencies, and technical issues; drive timely resolution and support rapid decision-makingProvide on-site engineering support during construction of foundations, concrete/steel structures, utilities, grading, and site infrastructureReview RFIs, submittals, inspections, QA/QC activities, field changes, and commissioning readiness of systems in coordination with EPC and construction teamsSupport development of Basis of Design, Owner standards, and technical specificationsCoordinate across mechanical, electrical, nuclear, and construction teams to ensure integrated, executable designs and advise leadership on engineering risk, cost, schedule, and constructability impactsRequirementsRequired QualificationsBachelor's degree in Civil or Structural Engineering (or related discipline)10+ years of civil/structural engineering experience supporting heavy industrial, power generation, or large infrastructure projectsProven experience reviewing engineering drawings, specifications, and contractor submittals and working directly with EPC contractors, A/E firms, and construction teamsStrong technical expertise in structural concrete and steel, heavy equipment foundations, and site civil systems (grading, drainage, and utilities), with solid constructability judgment and field awarenessDemonstrated ability to identify risks early, drive technical resolution, and provide clear technical leadership through strong communication skillsAbility to work on-site in Amarillo, TexasPreferred QualificationsProfessional License and/or CertificationExperience supporting combined cycle gas and/or nuclear power plant projects, including work in Owner's engineering, Owner's representative, or EPC roles on large infrastructure programsFamiliarity with nuclear safety-related structures and NRC-regulated facilities, as well as substations, switchyards, cooling towers, and water infrastructure systems
