The water industry offers a wide range of roles that require diverse skills. For example, a water treatment operator manages the highly technical instrumentation and processes of a water treatment plant, and requires extensive and continuous on-the-job training. A water distribution technician, responsible for maintaining water lines, tanks, and hydrants, benefits from the ability to be mechanically inclined. Engineers with degrees in civil, mechanical, or electrical fields design and inspect water distribution and wastewater collection infrastructure. There are also opportunities for environmental scientists, IT specialists, data analysts and a myriad of support personnel.
