Job Details

Most engineers don't move to Alaska for "just another job." They move here for a career that combines technical challenge with real-world impact-and a lifestyle that's hard to match anywhere else.

At PND Engineers, Inc., we're growing our water and wastewater practice and seeking an experienced civil engineer--based in our main Anchorage, Alaska, office--who's ready to bring their expertise to both urban and rural projects across Alaska and the U.S. This is more than a support role-you'll step into an established backlog of active projects and have a clear path to help shape a practice area with a variety of design and design-build projects that are central to private and public clients.

Why This Role Stands Out

• You'll work with limited oversight, designing and delivering water and wastewater utilities, treatment facilities, and distribution/collection systems for both large communities and remote villages.
• You'll assist in marketing the services of the water and wastewater sector as well as other company service lines.
• You'll work on projects that matter-providing safe, reliable water and wastewater infrastructure where it's needed most.
• You'll join a multidisciplinary firm with a reputation for solving engineering challenges in some of the most demanding environments.
• You'll apply your project management know-how, including leading design teams; developing scopes, schedules and budgets; and communicating with clients.
• You'll coordinate directly with government agencies and stakeholders, ensuring each project meets regulatory and community needs.
• You'll have the chance to travel: from rural Alaska villages to occasional Hawaii and Lower 48 project sites.

What We're Looking For

• Bachelor's degree in civil engineering (ABET accredited).
• Minimum 5-10 years of experience in water/wastewater systems design.
• Alaska P.E. license, or licensed in another state with ability to obtain an Alaska P.E. within 6 months.
• Strong technical skills, with an eye for constructible, practical design.
• Clear communication and a team-first mindset.
• Ability to travel occasionally for site visits, including to rural locations.
• Valid U.S. driver's license and permanent authorization to work in the U.S. without need for employer sponsorship.

Why Anchorage?
Anchorage is Alaska's hub: big enough for modern amenities, yet minutes from mountains, coastline, and wilderness. Whether you're drawn to skiing, fishing, hiking, or simply a quieter pace of life, Anchorage offers a rare blend of career and lifestyle. Not ready to make the leap and relocate? We'll consider basing the position in one of our "Lower 48" offices-Seattle, Federal Way, Kennewick, Portland, or Houston-or a fully remote opportunity for the right individual.
