| water-engineer | Occupational skill for the role 'water engineer' (also: water resource engineer, hydraulic engineer, water systems engineer, water management specialist). Use when the user asks for typical water engineer work such as: Supervise teams of workers who capture water from wells and rivers.; Review or evaluate designs for water detention facilities, storm drains, flood control facilities, or other hydraulic structures.; Negotiate for water rights with communities or water facilities to meet water supply demands. |
Water Engineer
Water engineers research and develop methods for the provision of clean water, water treatment and flood damage prevention and reaction. They research water needs in a location and develop methods for meeting those needs, such as designing and developing projects for managing water resources such as treatment plants, pipelines, pump systems, irrigation or draining systems and other water supply systems. Water engineers also ensure proper installation of these systems on construction sites. Water engineers also maintain, repair and build structures that control water resources, such as bridges, canals and dams.
Core workflow
- Supervise teams of workers who capture water from wells and rivers.
- Review or evaluate designs for water detention facilities, storm drains, flood control facilities, or other hydraulic structures.
- Negotiate for water rights with communities or water facilities to meet water supply demands.
- Perform hydrologic, hydraulic, or water quality modeling.
- Compile water resource data, using geographic information systems (GIS) or global position systems (GPS) software.
- Compile and maintain documentation on the health of a body of water.
- Write proposals, project reports, informational brochures, or other documents on wastewater purification, water supply and demand, or other water resource subjects.
- Recommend new or revised policies, procedures, or regulations to support water resource or conservation goals.
