Job Title

Position Overview

Civil Engineering Intern – Summer 2027

Watershed Geo is a global company headquartered in Alpharetta, Georgia, that develops intellectual property and provides technical solutions for ongoing problematic environmental and renewable energy infrastructure. Watershed Geo is majority owned by Shaw Industries, a Berkshire Hathaway subsidiary, and has experienced solid growth in recent years because of their cutting-edge technologies.

We are seeking a motivated and curious Civil Engineering Intern for a rotational, immersive internship experience designed to provide broad exposure across Watershed Geo’s business. Rather than supporting a single team, interns will spend varying amounts of time working alongside and learning from Engineering, Research & Development, Sales, Field Operations, and business operations/fulfillment.

This role provides hands-on experience with real engineering and technology-driven projects while offering a holistic view of how solutions are developed, sold, delivered, and supported—giving interns insight into how a growing company operates end-to-end, rather than functioning as a small part of a large organization.

• Duration: 10–12 weeks (Summer 2027)
• Location: Alpharetta, GA or Chattanooga, TN (in-person preferred)
• Compensation: Paid internship (Hourly)
• Mentorship, professional development, and capstone presentation at end of program.

Key Responsibilities

• Rotate through multiple departments to gain hands-on exposure to the full lifecycle of Watershed Geo’s technologies.
• Support engineering teams with design reviews, testing, data collection, and technical documentation.
• Spend time with inside and outside sales teams to understand solution development and customer engagement.
• Participate in field operations to observe real-world application of engineered solutions.
• Assist research & development teams with product testing and innovation initiatives.
• Engage with business operations and fulfillment teams to understand project coordination and execution.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams on special projects.

Qualifications

Currently pursuing a Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Civil, Environmental, Mechanical, or a related Engineering field.

• Familiarity with Microsoft Office (Excel, Word, PowerPoint).
• Exposure to engineering or design software (AutoCAD®, GIS, etc.) is a plus.
• Strong analytical, organizational, and problem-solving skills.
• Ability to work both independently and in a team environment.
