Shape the future with purpose at Arup in Poland. Start your engineering career and design sustainable solutions for tomorrow.

Arup’s values, shared purpose and collaborative approach have set us apart for over 80 years and shape how we create a better world. Arup has been operating in the Polish market since 1998, delivering technical solutions and supporting clients throughout the entire investment process – from concept, through design and supervision, to handover and the operational phase.

Arup’s first project in Poland was the Opel factory in Gliwice. We have a team of around 200 engineers, consultants and highly qualified technical staff. We work for public and private sector clients, delivering creative and sustainable solutions based on the efficient use of resources.

Our Public Health Engineers team is at the heart of Arup’s commitment to sustainability. We design innovative solutions that minimise environmental impact while creating comfortable, healthy and efficient spaces where people can live, work and thrive.

The opportunity

Start your engineering career and contribute to landmark projects that shape the future.

Take the opportunity to develop your technical skills and knowledge through structured training programmes and mentoring.

Arup Poland’s Public Health team is a group of reliable, experienced and creative engineers delivering, among others, projects for industrial facilities, sports venues and public buildings, covering water supply and wastewater installations and networks.

We use proven methods as well as modern tools and software that streamline our work and enable control over the project throughout its entire development and delivery process. BIM technology is an integral part of our projects, allowing us not only to design a fully functioning facility, but also to use it for project management.

• Support designers in project delivery.

• Take part in site visits, client meetings and design workshops, gaining valuable industry experience.
• Work in a multidisciplinary team with talented senior engineers and assistants who share the ambition to create a better world.
• Contribute to iconic projects—from laboratories and data centres to museums and commercial and residential buildings that support sustainable development.

Our goal is to help you further develop a range of technical skills and apply them to deliver new, outstanding outcomes. With guidance and support from our senior engineers, you will have the opportunity to gain professional experience.

Your Duties Will Also Include

• Performing design calculations.
• Preparing drawings for sanitary installations and networks: water supply, wastewater and fire protection (AutoCAD, Revit) at various project stages.
• Editing / preparing design documentation.
• Participating in design meetings; supporting and coordinating the work of Junior Assistants and Interns.
