Tips for Writing a Civil Engineer Job Description

Civil engineers plan, oversee, and implement strategies that create or bolster public and private infrastructure. These include constructs such as sewer management, potable water distribution, telemetry system implementation, power lines (in conjunction with electrical engineers), and dams.

More-common images that come to mind include buildings, roads, and bridges. Each bolt in the overpass and every strip of weatherstripping in your office was once approved by a civil engineer. Reaching back to times before electricity, constructs such as aqueducts, the road systems of Rome, the Greek Parthenon, ships, and more all relied on civil engineers, though they may have been given different titles at that time.

In this section, we will cover a sample job description, exploring the daily responsibilities and necessary qualifications for a civil engineer.

4 Steps to Creating a Civil Engineer Job Description That Fits Your Needs

There are many civil engineers out there, so you must understand what you need before hiring. Below are some factors to consider to help you choose the right fit for your company:

1. Types of Experience

Are you speaking with a theoretical engineer? If so, are you willing to accept the risks that come with hiring an engineer without field experience?

Are you speaking with a field engineer about a desk job? If so, are you willing to accept that they may lose operational efficiency by staying behind the desk?

Odds are, the professional engineer you need won’t be the same professional engineer that another firm needs, so it’s essential to speak to multiple engineers until you find a good fit.

2. The Position

Civil engineers are available as employees or contractors, and they can often be hired through agencies as well. Employees generally offer the most specialized knowledge of a company’s systems and implementations. Ultimately employees are more expensive than contractors but cheaper than agencies for long-term or repeat projects.

Know what you’re willing to spend, what the project needs to succeed in a general sense, and know how long you’re able (or willing) to invest in the project. Civil engineering projects can take months or years to complete, so choosing the right talent for your business is essential to your long-term success.

3. Experience Requirements

Civil engineering experience is a valuable resource for assessing engineers. A junior civil engineer or a civil engineer assistant is more suited for large construction projects that require a broad skill set, as they have a great deal of potential but lack experience.

A senior civil engineer is great for a project that demands specific skills, because their experience allows them to adapt to any situation.

Industry experience is the most valuable asset that a field or consulting engineer can have. Schooling provides engineers with the base concepts they need to experience success in the field. Untested engineers are generally assigned to a more experienced senior, however, because even a minor mistake or miscalculation when assembling a bridge can spell disaster.

4. Industry

Civil engineers are an essential part of many industries. In addition to typical applications such as building roads and bridges, they also participate in constructing parks, urban development initiatives, and private construction site efforts that leave behind positive environmental impacts.

"Give me six hours to chop down a tree and I will spend the first four sharpening the axe." - Abraham Lincoln Sometimes, people inexperienced in construction may see structural engineering as just one more hurdle the building department is making them jump. But an experienced contractor knows how much a *good* set of structural drawings saves time and materials. As a structural engineer, I build your entire building--virtually, in my mind and on my screen--several times over before the contractor ever shows up on site. I identify the pitfalls and iron out the kinks so when the contractor finally builds the real building everything goes just smoothly. I am a trailblazer. I am also a licensed Structural Engineer (SE) in Illinois and Professional Engineer (PE) in California and Wisconsin. I have extensive experience designing both residential and commercial buildings, and I am proficient in building code requirements for steel, concrete, masonry, and wood construction. I hold a master's degree in structural engineering from Stanford University. I was *the* project engineer on a $600 million expansion of Sears Tower, Chicago's tallest skyscraper. But I have also worked on many many small, one-off projects; for example, I once designed an opening in a bearing wall to allow wheelchair access to a client's living room. What that means is that I have the expertise to manage very large projects, but that I also know how to work efficiently to meet the budget constraints of very small projects.

Why did I sign up with Upwork? I came here to explore new opportunities. To reconnect with inspiration and passion in a bottomless well of possibilities, which I believe Upwork can be. To seek out abundance - new ways to embody hard-work, effort and authenticity, because these qualities bring me the most deserved, long lived and bountiful of reward. I work as a Civil Engineer, out of a consulting office in Cape Town, South Africa. For information on this, my specialty profile will expand. Over and above this, I am passionate about travel, photography, yoga, surfing, reading, writing, watching, listening, video making and generally anything that allows me to be free thinking and creative, and to fuel me to grow as a professional, and as a human in whole. As I develop in my professional career, I’m realizing the full extent of my potential. With a quiet and reserved disposition, this doesn't come naturally to me - and always calls me to push myself a little harder. In 2018 I made the decision to take a year off from work to honour a desire to do long form travel overseas without itinerary, no plans set in stone. This required breaking the news to my bosses and colleagues, family and friends that I’d be stepping away for a year, selling everything I could, and take the plunge, following nothing but a hope and a dream. I did not have a fortune live off, but I soon realized that the act alone was sustaining in a way that nothing ever has been. It was three days after our wedding, that my wife and I set off to Asia. The year would see us moving across India, trekking into the Himalayas and Nepal, crossing over to Hong Kong, where we got our VISAS to travel deeper into China, and coming back across to Thailand before having our bellies filled with memorable adventure and ready to come back home to South Africa. It was a period in our lives where we were unattached and unbound to any schedule and obligations. Daily, we were presented with the pure beauty that the world had to offer and the kindness of everybody we encountered. We were like aliens everywhere we were, looking out and observing life play out around us, even observing our own lives and relationships we carried. We moved through a full spectrum of scales, from luxury hotels to basic backpacker spots, seeing the extremely wealthy in urban hubs contrasted with the world’s most impoverished. From modern cities to cultures with thousands of years of history. We saw people thriving, others struggling, some happy and full of life, others with the harshness of that same life worn on their bodies. With so much variance, such a wide spectrum, I could begin to cultivate a sense of place for myself in this tapestry that is our interconnected world today. It was in the bustling metropolis of Hong Kong that the bright lights of our age captured me most. Apart from the mega structures, sophisticated urban design and seamless transportation network it was the 24hr clock and myriad of nationalities and business interests mingling on the streets that shook me awake. Executives, sports personalities, achievers were at play and I saw that any stream you choose is your game, and yours to win. I understood that while I was in the middle of living out one lifelong goal, there were others more to be had and time ahead was an enticing blank slate. I resolved to lengthen my reach, beyond the company I worked for, town I lived in, and personality I thought I was. I take a lot of inspiration from that period, as I feed off it still, as it shows me that he limits we set for ourselves are only in our imagination. It is with this spirit that I start on this journey of creating on online service. I have a wide range of skills and interests, that can be applied synergistically to provide great value. I am hard working, conscientious and motivated by high performance and quality, and I make sure that anything that I put out meets this standard. I look forward to growing here and delivering great value to all that I may work with.
