Regional water and wastewater utility serving 3M+ people across 8 U.S. states
Aqua is a publicly traded water utility operating across Illinois, Indiana, New Jersey, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Texas, and Virginia. The tech stack reflects a heavy SAP footprint (IS-U, S/4HANA, EAM, HANA) paired with operational tools (SCADA, ArcGIS, AutoCAD Civil 3D), typical of utility-scale infrastructure management. Active hiring is concentrated in operations (88 roles) and engineering (41), with junior-level positions dominating — indicating frontline staffing pressure and potential skills-gap challenges in capital project delivery.
Notable leadership hires: Operations Director
Aqua provides water and wastewater utility services to more than 3 million customers across eight states. As one of the largest U.S.-based publicly traded water utilities, the company operates infrastructure spanning treatment, distribution, and wastewater collection. The business model is regulated utility operations: capital-intensive projects (water and sewer improvements, treatment plant upgrades, dam safety programs), real-time operational control (SCADA-based monitoring), and compliance-driven regulatory reporting. Active project portfolio includes treatment-plant upgrades, lift-station and tank infrastructure, disaster recovery planning, and annual capital improvement programs.
Aqua uses SAP (IS-U, S/4HANA, EAM, HANA, NetWeaver, Fiori), operational systems (SCADA, ArcGIS, AutoCAD Civil 3D), Microsoft Office and 365 suite, and development frameworks (.NET, C#, SQL, REST, SOAP, OData). Currently adopting Microsoft 365, Active Directory, VMware, and Citrix.
Aqua is headquartered in Bryn Mawr, Pennsylvania, and operates across eight U.S. states: Illinois, Indiana, New Jersey, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Texas, and Virginia.
