Eastern Municipal Water District (EMWD) is a nationally recognized public water and wastewater agency serving nearly one million customers across a 682-square-mile service area in Western Riverside and Northern San Diego Counties. The District employs approximately 620 staff and is advancing a significant capital program, including a FY 2026–27 CIP budget of $194.2 million and a current five-year CIP totaling approximately $938 million.
Reporting to the Senior Director of Engineering, the Director of Field Engineering leads construction administration, contract management, safety oversight, and project inspection for large and complex capital projects supporting EMWD’s potable water, wastewater, and recycled water systems. This executive role oversees field engineering, construction management, and inspection programs to help ensure projects are delivered safely, efficiently, and in compliance with District standards and regulatory requirements.
EMWD is seeking a seasoned, collaborative leader who can manage a complex portfolio without micromanaging, communicate effectively with executives, staff, contractors, and the public, and maintain strong awareness of project status, risk, and competing priorities. The ideal candidate will bring deep experience in construction administration, safety, inspection, and contract oversight, along with an approachable leadership style that builds trust, supports staff, and reinforces a strong safety culture.
Requires a bachelor’s degree in engineering, construction management, or a related field; ten years of progressively responsible experience in the design, construction, and inspection of large, complex water and wastewater systems, including five years in a management capacity; registration as a Professional Civil Engineer in the State of California and/or certification as a Certified Construction Manager (CCM). A valid California driver’s license is also required.
