Water Resources Engineer (Floodplain & Hydraulics)

Manning Civil is a water resources and civil engineering firm based in the Boise area, specializing in floodplain and hydraulic modeling, FEMA LOMR/CLOMR permitting, stream alteration and restoration, public water system design, and stormwater management throughout the Intermountain West.

We do complex, meaningful work - and we're intentional about how we do it.

We're a small, high trust team, which means you'll have real ownership over projects and direct exposure to clients and agencies - your fingerprints are on the work, not buried in a deliverable that passes through six hands before it reaches a client. We work hard, love what we do, and respect that our employees have lives outside of it.

WHAT YOU'LL BE DOING

We're looking for someone with 3 years of HEC-RAS production experience - someone who can step into active projects, develop defensible models, and produce clean, submittal-quality deliverables. You'll work across hydraulic and floodplain analyses, FEMA MT-2 submittals (CLOMR/LOMR/No-Rise), steady and unsteady simulations, drainage design, and more. Project scale varies, from focused technical studies to larger multi-stakeholder efforts.

You won't be working in a vacuum - we're a collaborative team and invested in the people who join us.

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

• PE license (Idaho or ability to obtain promptly)

• B.S. in Civil Engineering or closely related field

• 5–10 years of relevant hydraulics/water resources experience

• 3 years of hands-on HEC-RAS experience: geometry setup, model development, simulation runs, troubleshooting, and communicating results

• Strong technical writing and communication skills

• Someone who takes initiative and follows through

• Civil 3D and GIS experience preferred

 THE DETAILS

• Hybrid schedule | Boise/Eagle, ID — local candidates preferred

• $95,000 – $125,000 (DOE)

• Medical, dental, and vision benefits

• SIMPLE IRA with 3% employer match

• Flexible schedule PTO
