Job description

Verdanterra is hiring an Oil and Gas Engineering Manager to lead civil engineering delivery for energy infrastructure projects across the Marcellus/Utica region. This role is ideal for a hands-on leader who can balance technical oversight, team development, and fast-moving project execution - from early design through construction support.

What This Role Owns

• Lead and mentor a team of civil engineers and technicians delivering site and infrastructure designs (well pads, pipelines, access roads, and facility sites).

• Oversee schedules, budgets, staffing, and technical quality across multiple active projects.

• Partner with environmental, survey, and project management teams to produce permit-ready, buildable plans.

• Ensure designs align with regulatory requirements, safety standards, and environmental best practices.

• Support client relationships, resolve technical issues quickly, and keep projects moving in the field.

• Prepare scope and fee proposals and manage risk (scope changes, delays, cost exposure).

What Makes Someone Successful Here

• Strong ownership mindset - able to drive execution without constant oversight.

• Comfortable leading multiple projects and priorities at once.

• Clear communicator who can manage stakeholders and develop team members.

• Practical design approach grounded in constructability and field realities.

Preferred Qualifications

• BS in Civil Engineering, Construction Engineering, or similar.

• 7+ years of civil engineering experience, ideally tied to oil and gas or comparable infrastructure.

• 3+ years leading teams and managing project delivery.

• Experience with civil design tools such as AutoCAD, Civil 3D, HEC-RAS (or similar).

• Strong understanding of permitting and compliance for energy infrastructure projects.

• PE license preferred.

Why Verdanterra

• High-impact energy infrastructure work across PA, WV, and OH.

• Leadership role with real influence over standards, delivery rhythm, and team development.

• Integrated project environment with close coordination across engineering, environmental, and field teams.
