Job Description
What Your Day Will Look Like:
:
As a Drainage Design Engineer, you will apply hydrologic and hydraulic engineering principles to the planning, analysis, and design of drainage infrastructure for transportation and roadway improvement projects. Working collaboratively with multidisciplinary teams and under the guidance of senior engineers, you will contribute to the development of innovative and cost-effective stormwater management solutions, including storm sewer systems, culverts, open channels, detention and retention facilities, roadway drainage networks, and hydraulic structures.
In this role, you will perform drainage analyses, prepare engineering calculations, develop construction plans and technical reports, and support the evaluation of flood risks, watershed impacts, and regulatory compliance requirements. You will utilize industry-standard design software and modeling tools to assess system performance and ensure designs meet applicable federal, state, and local transportation agency standards, drainage criteria, and environmental regulations.
As your experience grows, you will take increasing ownership of project
deliverables, coordinate with internal and external stakeholders, assist in resolving complex engineering challenges, and contribute to project planning and execution efforts. This position offers an excellent opportunity to strengthen technical expertise, develop sound engineering judgment, and build a successful career in transportation drainage design while delivering infrastructure solutions that enhance public safety, mobility, and system resilience.
What You'll Do:
:- Prepare and review drainage design plans, hydrologic and hydraulic calculations, and technical reports for transportation projects, including roadway, bridge, and culvert drainage systems.
- Apply applicable drainage design standards, criteria, and agency guidelines to ensure accuracy, compliance, and constructability in stormwater and roadway drainage designs.
- Perform hydrologic and hydraulic analyses, storm sewer and culvert sizing, drainage modeling, cost estimates, and quantity takeoffs for assigned transportation drainage projects.
- Utilize industry-standard hydrologic and hydraulic modeling software to evaluate drainage system performance, assess flood risk, and develop effective stormwater management solutions.
- Support coordination with roadway, structural, environmental, and other multidisciplinary teams, as well as clients and reviewing agencies, to integrate drainage requirements into overall project design.
- Assist with quality assurance reviews, address drainage-related design comments, and provide technical support during plan development, agency reviews, and construction-related field inquiries.
What You'll Need:
:- Bachelor of Science in Civil or Structural Engineering.
- 5-10 years of transportation drainage experience with TxDOT projects.
- Professional Engineer (PE) license.
- Proficiency in Microstation ORD, AutoCad, and Civil3D software.
- Proposal writing/marketing experience is a plus.
- This hybrid job operates between an office environment and a field environment and routinely requires the use of standard office equipment such as computers, phones and copy machines. May require occasional exposure to work environments that may include inclement weather, heat, humidity, noise, hazard, atmospheric conditions, and bodies of water, depending on project requirements.
- While performing the duties of this job, physical demands of the employee include frequent sitting, moving, standing, talking, hearing, and occasional balancing, stooping, kneeling, crouching, reaching, handling, grasping, and feeling. This job may occasionally require operating a company vehicle, and lifting, carrying, pushing, and pulling up to 35 lbs.

Design Engineer Jobs in San Antonio: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get a design engineer job in San Antonio?
Focus on San Antonio's defense contractors, aerospace manufacturers, and civil engineering firms, which consistently drive the most design engineer openings in the city. Roles cluster around the Kelly Field Redevelopment Area, the Northeast Side near Joint Base San Antonio, and the growing South Texas Medical Center corridor for biomedical device work. Candidates with CAD proficiency, systems design experience, or a clearance-eligible background stand out most here.
Which companies hire design engineers in San Antonio?
Employers hiring design engineers in San Antonio right now include Accenture Federal Services, Consor, and EControls, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of September 2026. San Antonio's hiring base skews toward defense primes, utilities, and mid-size manufacturing firms with deep ties to the military installation economy.
Are there remote design engineer jobs in San Antonio?
Yes, though design engineering is more hands-on than most technical roles, so fully remote positions are less common than in software or analytics. About 100% of design engineer openings tied to San Antonio are remote or hybrid as of September 2026, with the remote share concentrated in CAD-heavy and documentation roles rather than prototyping or lab work.
How can I get a design engineer job in San Antonio with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path in San Antonio is through defense and aerospace subcontractors near Kelly Field, which regularly hire junior design engineers and drafters for contract-based roles that convert to full-time. Look for titles like design technician, CAD drafter, or junior mechanical engineer at local manufacturers and utility companies. A portfolio of SolidWorks or AutoCAD projects from coursework or personal builds gives candidates a concrete edge in local interviews.
Which industries hire the most design engineers in San Antonio?
San Antonio design engineer roles concentrate in Consulting & Professional Services, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of September 2026. San Antonio's large military footprint, growing manufacturing base along the South Side, and expanding utility infrastructure all create sustained demand for design engineers across those sectors.
