Water infrastructure engineering and construction services across treatment, conveyance, and resilience
Hazen and Sawyer is a 1,000+ person engineering firm focused exclusively on water infrastructure—drinking water systems, wastewater treatment, stormwater management, and water reuse. The stack is heavily CAD-centric (Revit, AutoCAD Civil 3D, BIM) with hydraulic modeling tools (HEC-RAS, SWMM, ETAP) and project controls (Procore, Bluebeam), reflecting a design-and-build operation. Active hiring is concentrated in engineering roles, and the pain-point list reveals near-term priorities: migrating legacy control platforms, modernizing aging treatment plants, and addressing interdisciplinary coordination friction—all signals of capital-intensive client projects in motion.
Hazen and Sawyer designs and delivers water infrastructure projects for municipalities and utilities. The firm operates across six core service lines: drinking water, wastewater, stormwater, water resources, energy/sustainability, and water reuse. Projects span facility planning and design (HEC-RAS and SWMM modeling), treatment plant construction and upgrades, pump station design, and control system optimization. The company maintains a headquarters in New York and operates in the United States and Canada. With over 300 active engineering roles and a senior-heavy seniority mix, the firm is scaling capacity to manage concurrent treatment facility upgrades and large municipal water resilience programs.
Revit, AutoCAD Civil 3D, HEC-RAS, SWMM, ETAP, and GIS modeling tools form the core. BIM coordination is supported by Bluebeam and Autodesk Construction Cloud. Project controls run on Procore.
New York, NY. The firm also operates in Canada and maintains a network of regional offices across the United States.
