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

    Technical Expertise & Software Proficiency :

  • Experience or strong interest in hydrology, hydraulics, and stormwater management .
  • Should have at least 5+ years experience
  • Familiarity with MUSIC and DRAINS (or willingness to train in them).
  • Eagerness to learn and use North American flood drainage software (EPA SWMM, HEC-RAS, InfoWorks, etc.).
  • Understanding of WSUD principles and urban drainage systems.
  • Basic GIS skills (ArcGIS or QGIS) are a plus.
  • AutoCAD drafting experience from sketches or graphics is preferred.

    • Educational Background :

  • Bachelor’s degree in Civil Engineering, Environmental Engineering, Hydrology, or Water Resources .
  • Candidates with related backgrounds (e.g., environmental science or water resources) are welcome if willing to specialize in stormwater and flood modelling .

    • Soft Skills & Work Ethic :

  • Analytical thinker & problem-solver with attention to detail.
  • Strong technical writing and communication skills in English.
  • Ability to work independently and collaboratively across time zones.

    • Benefits

    Training & Development Opportunities
