AECOM Hiring! Full Time Project Engineer — Climate Change Adaptation (Sentosa Island Study) in - Ricebowl

We are seeking a motivated and technically strong Project Engineer to support a climate change adaptation study. The role will contribute to the assessment, planning, and implementation of resilience strategies addressing climate risks such as sea-level rise, extreme rainfall, flooding, and coastal erosion.

This is an excellent opportunity to work on a high-impact project integrating engineering, sustainability, and climate science in a complex coastal urban environment.

Project Delivery & Engineering Support

• Assist in the planning, coordination, and execution of climate adaptation studies and engineering assessments.
• Support development of engineering solutions for coastal protection, drainage improvement, and flood mitigation.
• Prepare technical reports, calculations, drawings, and design documentation.

Climate Risk & Vulnerability Assessment

• Contribute to climate risk assessments, including analysis of:
  • Sea-level rise projections
  • Coastal inundation
  • Storm surge impacts
  • Extreme weather scenarios
• Support modelling exercises (hydrological, hydraulic, or coastal).

Data Analysis & Modelling

• Analyse environmental, geospatial, and engineering data to inform design decisions.
• Work with GIS tools and/or numerical models to evaluate adaptation strategies.
• Collaborate with specialists (e.g., climate scientists, coastal engineers, urban planners).

Stakeholder Coordination

• Liaise with internal teams, consultants, and external stakeholders.
• Support preparation of presentations and materials for client discussions and workshops.
• Participate in multidisciplinary coordination meetings.

Sustainability & Innovation

• Identify and assess sustainable, nature-based, and hybrid engineering solutions.
• Integrate climate resilience considerations into infrastructure planning.
• Stay updated on industry best practices for climate adaptation and coastal resilience.

Education

• Bachelor’s degree in Civil Engineering, Environmental Engineering, Coastal Engineering, or related field.
• Master’s degree in climate science, water engineering, or sustainability (preferred).

Experience

• 2–6 years of relevant experience in:
  • Infrastructure or coastal engineering projects
  • Flood risk management or drainage design
  • Climate adaptation or resilience studies
• Experience in coastal or island environments is an advantage.
