Staff Civil Engineer - Environmental Services
for each heading. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use
for prose. Do NOT repeat job title as heading. Do NOT put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings; fold minor metadata into short
or drop it. Remove boilerplate: EEO/Disabled/Veterans, etc. Also remove application instructions (none). Keep all substantive info.
We need to decide which sections have real content.
From description:
- About the role: The first paragraph describing the role: "Burns & McDonnell is seeking a Staff Civil Engineer with related environmental experience to add to our Environmental Services Global Practice’s Environmental Engineering team in Kansas City (MO), Manhattan (KS), Omaha (NE), and Oklahoma City (OK). We are looking for a self-motivated and experienced engineer and civil designer to lead or support a wide variety of civil and environmental engineering designs for new projects, alterations, and redevelopments on a variety of projects in environmental engineering markets and contribute to implementing department strategy, vision, and culture. The position offers the opportunity to practice in a variety of technical areas, including but not limited to: Solid Waste – permitting, design, construction, and compliance support for solid waste infrastructure including monofills, landfills, transfer stations, material recovery facilities, etc.Site/Civil – site grading and design, site stormwater modeling and design, design of other site utilities (water, wastewater, etc.), coal combustion residuals (CCR) project, dams and levees, etc.Water Resources – riverine 1D and 2D modeling, floodplain permitting, stream bank stabilization, stream and wetland restoration, etc."
That is about the role.
- Responsibilities: The bullet list under "Responsibilities". We'll make
- .
- Qualifications: The list under "Qualifications". We'll make
- .
- Skills: Possibly proficiency in AutoCAD Civil 3D, ArcGIS, etc. Could be part of Qualifications but we can separate Skills if there is content. The posting mentions proficiency in AutoCAD Civil 3D, ArcGIS, and technical area-specific programs. Also mentions PE license preferred, experience overseeing construction, project management experience, strong knowledge of standard civil engineering techniques, self-motivation, problem solving, interpersonal skills, ability to travel up to 10%. Those could be Skills. However we need to avoid thin sections. Could combine Qualifications and Skills? But instructions: Use headings for sections when posting has real, specific content. We have Qualifications content (education, years experience, consulting experience, proficiency, PE license preferred, etc). We could treat that as Qualifications. Skills could be separate if we have distinct skill list: proficiency in software, PE license, construction oversight, project management, knowledge of techniques, self-motivation, problem solving, interpersonal, travel. Might be okay to have Skills section.
- Benefits: Not mentioned. No benefits details. So we should NOT create Benefits section.
- Pay: Not mentioned. No pay. So omit.
- Schedule: The posting includes "Schedule: Full-time". That's a specific content. So we should include Schedule section with that info. Also Travel: Yes, 10% of the Time. Travel could be part of Schedule or maybe separate but we have only Schedule heading allowed. Could include travel info within Schedule section.
Thus sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Qualifications, Skills, Schedule.
We need to ensure we don't include filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present.
We need to preserve all substantive info. Let's extract details.
About the role paragraph: We'll keep as
.
Responsibilities list: items:
- Leading or supporting engineering teams to deliver well-coordinated, high-quality designs for civil or environmental engineering projects.
- Coordinating and supporting all aspects of multidisciplinary projects with varying degrees of technical complexity.
- Preparing documentation for design projects, including design criteria, technical letters, memorandums, reports, drawings, detailed design packages, and cost estimates.
- Directing and reviewing work products prepared by early-career engineering staff.
- Providing technical leadership and quality reviews aligned with experience.
- Project management duties include executing the project scope, budget, schedule, quality, safety, and client expectations.
- Establishing client relations and involvement with marketing, contractual, management, and design meetings.
- Championing QA/QC procedures.
- Executing internal personnel training.
- Other duties, as assigned.
We'll put each as
- .
Qualifications list:
- Bachelor of Science in Civil, Environmental, or Biological Engineering or related engineering degree from an ABET-accredited program.
- 3 years minimum related professional environmental engineering experience (6 years preferred).
- Previous consulting experience is strongly preferred.
- Proficiency in AutoCAD Civil 3D, ArcGIS, and technical area-specific programs. For example, water resources-focused candidates should demonstrate proficiency in additional software such as HEC-RAS 1D/2D, HEC-HMS, CivilStorm (or equivalent), etc.
- PE license preferred.
- Experience overseeing construction and an understanding of construction methods and procedures are highly preferred.
- Project management or assistant project management experience preferred.
- Strong knowledge of standard civil engineering techniques and procedures.
- Self-motivation and the ability to self-manage and multi-task (write reports, analyze data, perform design tasks, etc.)
- Strong problem-solving abilities, interpersonal skills, and ability to work within a team framework.
- Ability to travel and work in the field, up to 10%, as required.
Note: The last bullet about travel appears also in Qualifications but also appears later in the posting under "Ability to travel and work in the field, up to 10%, as required." That's part of Qualifications. However we also have Travel info in Schedule section? Actually the posting includes "Schedule: Full-time Travel: Yes, 10 % of the Time". That duplicates travel info. We should not duplicate? We need to preserve ALL substantive information; we can include travel info in either Qualifications or Schedule, but not duplicate? The instruction: preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. If we put travel info only in Qualifications, we still have the Schedule line "Schedule: Full-time Travel: Yes, 10 % of the Time". That's also substantive. If we omit it from Schedule, we lose that info. But we could include Schedule section with "Full-time" and mention travel 10% there, and not repeat travel in Qualifications (or we could keep both but that would be duplication). The instruction says preserve ALL substantive information; duplication is not prohibited but might be redundant. Better to include travel info only once. Since Schedule section is specifically for schedule, we can put "Full-time" there and note travel 10% there. Then we can remove travel bullet from Qualifications to avoid duplication. However the Qualifications bullet about travel is also substantive; if we remove it, we lose that detail unless we keep it elsewhere. We could keep it in Qualifications and also include Schedule with just "Full-time". But then travel info appears twice (once in Qualifications, once in Schedule). That's duplication but still preserves info. The instruction didn't forbid duplication, just said preserve ALL substantive information; not to invent or summarize away detail. Duplication is okay but maybe not ideal. However they said "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." Duplication could be considered thin? Not sure.
Better to keep travel info in Qualifications (since it's listed there) and Schedule section just says "Full-time". The Schedule line in posting includes travel; but we can interpret that as schedule info: Full-time, travel 10%. We could include both in Schedule: "Full-time, travel up to 10%". Then we could drop travel bullet from Qualifications to avoid duplication. However the Qualifications bullet also includes other details like self-motivation etc. If we drop travel bullet, we still keep other qualifications. That seems okay.
Thus Qualifications list will exclude the travel bullet. We'll keep all other bullets.
Skills section: We can list proficiency in AutoCAD Civil 3D, ArcGIS, technical area-specific programs (HEC-RAS, HEC-HMS, CivilStorm), PE license preferred, experience overseeing construction, project management experience, strong knowledge of standard civil engineering techniques, self-motivation, problem-solving, interpersonal skills. However many of these overlap with Qualifications. To avoid thin sections, maybe we combine Qualifications and Skills into one "Qualifications" section that includes education, experience, skills, licenses. But the instruction says use headings for sections when posting has real, specific content. It didn't forbid combining. However they gave examples of headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So they expect separate Qualifications and Skills if content exists. We have content for both; we can split.
We need to decide what goes where. Qualifications: education, years experience, consulting experience. Skills: software proficiency, PE license, construction oversight, project management experience, knowledge of techniques, self-motivation, problem solving, interpersonal, maybe travel? But travel we already placed in Schedule.
Thus:
Qualifications (
):
- Bachelor of Science in Civil, Environmental, or Biological Engineering or related engineering degree from an ABET-accredited program.
- 3 years minimum related professional environmental engineering experience (6 years preferred).
- Previous consulting experience is strongly preferred.
Skills ():
- Proficiency in AutoCAD Civil 3D, ArcGIS, and technical area-specific programs (e.g., HEC-RAS 1D/2D, HEC-HMS, CivilStorm or equivalent).
- PE license preferred.
- Experience overseeing construction and an understanding of construction methods and procedures are highly preferred.
- Project management or assistant project management experience preferred.
- Strong knowledge of standard civil engineering techniques and procedures.
- Self-motivation and the ability to self-manage and multi-task (write reports, analyze data, perform design tasks, etc.)
- Strong problem-solving abilities, interpersonal skills, and ability to work within a team framework.
Schedule (): Full-time, travel up to 10% of the time.
We also need to include location info? The posting mentions locations: Kansas City (MO), Manhattan (KS), Omaha (NE), Oklahoma City (OK). That's substantive. Where to put? Could be part of About the role paragraph (we already have location mention). Indeed the About the role paragraph includes location list. So we keep that.
We also need to include "This job posting will remain open a minimum of 72 hours and on an ongoing basis until filled." That's metadata about posting duration. Should we keep? It's substantive but maybe minor. The instruction says fold minor metadata into a short
or drop it. This is minor metadata about posting duration. We could include a short
at end: "This job posting will remain open a minimum of 72 hours and on an ongoing basis until filled." Or we could drop it. The instruction: "Do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short
or drop it." This is similar minor metadata. So we can include a short
after sections.
We also need to remove EEO/Disabled/Veterans boilerplate, duplicated lines, application instructions. There's none.
Now construct HTML.
We'll output:
