12D Designer
Summary
Mid-level civil designer producing 12d stormwater and drainage models and service drawings for Australian development projects, including detention design, flood/overland flow analysis, and underground pipe network modelling using tools like DRAINS and HEC-RAS. Full-time WFH on Australian (ADT) business hours.
- Create and maintain 12D models for civil and stormwater design, ensuring accuracy and compliance with applicable standards
- Produce detailed service drawings from design models, including drainage and stormwater infrastructure layouts
- Design stormwater detention systems in line with project requirements and stormwater management plans
- Assist in the modelling and documentation of underground drainage networks using established design parameters.
- Carry out flooding and overland flow analysis using hydraulic and hydrological modelling tools
- Prepare and update design inputs for stormwater management plans
- Run drainage and hydraulic modelling in software such as DRAINS and HEC-RAS, and support storm simulation modelling where required
- Coordinate with design engineers and project team members to align models and drawings with design intent and project deadlines
- Manage multiple modelling and drawing deliverables across large, high-volume development projects while meeting tight timeframes
- Apply structured processes and QA checks to ensure model integrity, drawing consistency, and documentation accuracy
- Identify opportunities to improve efficiency in design workflows, including the use of automation and AI-assisted tools
Requirements
- Bachelor’s degree in Civil Engineering or a related field
- 4-8+ years of experience in civil design, drainage design, or stormwater modelling, or related experience
- Proficiency in 12D (core requirement); Civil 3D experience is desirable as an alternative
- Familiarity with DRAINS, or the ability to learn it quickly on the job
- Knowledge of general Australian civil engineering codes and standards is required, while experience working on South East Queensland projects is highly regarded
- Experience with 2Flow or other storm simulation software, as well as HEC-RAS modelling, is an advantage
- Ability to self-learn with guidance, and to follow structured processes and recorded training materials
- Forward-thinking mindset toward efficiency, including openness to AI tools and workflow automation
- Strong attention to detail and accuracy in modelling and drawing production
- Strong time management skills, with the ability to deliver within tight project deadlines
- Good written and verbal communication skills for coordinating with engineers and project teams
