Job Description:

Summary: The person in this position will work on multidisciplinary project teams providing hydrologic engineering and related technical expertise, primarily for water retaining dams and hydropower facilities. Primary responsibilities will include hydrologic assessment of wet and dry extreme precipitation and flow events; modeling rainfall, snowmelt, and rain-on-snowmelt events; development of inflow hydrographs and flow duration curves; flood frequency analysis and development of hydrologic hazard curves; reservoir operation simulation; inundation modeling and mapping; hydrologic engineering analysis; report writing; dam safety evaluations; and risk analyses. The work may involve short-term, out-of-town assignments either in the field or in another office. As markets fluctuate, opportunities may also include working on other types of water resource projects such as stormwater infrastructure, flood routing and risk reduction, or irrigation systems.

Minimum Qualifications: * Bachelor's degree in civil engineering with an emphasis on hydrology and/or water resources * 5 years of relevant professional experience with an emphasis on hydrologic engineering * Professional Engineer (PE) certification or ability to obtain certification within one year * Ability to perform probability and statistical analysis of hydrological datasets * Familiarity with a variety of software packages and modeling tools, in particular HEC-SSP, HEC-HMS, USACE time series toolbox, and other statistical packages * Familiarity with snowmelt methods, particularly applicable to the mountain regions of the western USA * Familiarity with risk assessment framework for dams and hydropower facilities * Strong interpersonal, oral, and written communication skills and the ability to communicate effectively with project team members and clients * Strong technical and problem-solving skills * Attention to detail, accuracy, and completeness * Experience mentoring junior level engineers * A flexible working style as required to meet deadlines and/or client needs * Possession of a valid driver's license and acceptable driving record * Legal authorization to work in the U.S. without the need for sponsorship from Barr, now or in the future

Preferred Qualifications: * Master's degree or PhD in civil engineering with an emphasis on hydrology and/or water resources * 6 or more years of relevant professional experience an emphasis on hydrology and/or water resources * Experience with water resources challenges in Colorado including precipitation and flooding data analysis; urban and rural hydrologic analysis; storm sewer analysis and design; open channel and pipe flow analysis; hydraulic structures; stormwater quality and green stormwater infrastructure design; bank stabilization and stream restoration; floodplain analysis and mapping; dam break analysis; dam and levee analysis and design * Ability to perform stochastic modeling of hydrological processes * Experience and knowledge of software packages HEC-SSP and HEC-HMS * Experience with development of hydrologic hazard curves * Knowledge of and experience with other software packages including RMC-BestFit, RMC-RFA, HEC-ResSim, RiverWare, LifeSim, or HEC-RAS * Experience with determination of low flows in a semi-arid environment * Experience with storm analysis including discrimination of storm types, orographic effects, and snowmelt considerations as well as with determination of the probable...
