Civil Engineering Designer in Toronto

Arcadis is seeking a talented Senior Road Designer for our Toronto West office. Working within our Design & Engineering teams, you'll create some of the world’s most iconic and ground‑breaking structures and spaces that transform the world around us, from making journeys easier to opening public places that bring people together. We partner with our clients across the globe to design thriving and connected cities and communities that enable opportunity for all and keep the world moving. Climate change, urbanization and digitization trends are requiring today’s mobility projects and systems to address an evolving set of demands from the world’s growing population. We design connected, sustainable solutions that integrate existing infrastructure with new technologies, and optimize the mobility of people and goods.

As a civil designer, you will contribute to a range of infrastructure projects, with an emphasis on detailed design for municipal and linear infrastructure. Responsibilities include preparing preliminary and detailed designs covering all aspects of civil engineering, from grading and drainage to utility layouts and construction specifications.

You will be expected to coordinate closely with the CAD standards group to maintain drafting and modeling standards across all project deliverables. Collaborating with other design disciplines is essential for effective integration of multidisciplinary inputs, resolving interface issues, and supporting seamless project delivery. This collaborative approach is key to upholding quality and consistency throughout the design process.

Additionally, you will assist junior designers with design concepts and software questions, providing guidance and mentorship to help develop their technical skills. By sharing your knowledge and experience, you help build a capable design team and reinforce high standards of performance across all phases of the project.
