Project Manager - Infiltrator Water Technologies

Infiltrator Water Technologies, a wholly owned subsidiary of ADS, provides wastewater treatment solutions for residential and commercial systems with daily flows up to 250,000 gallons per day. Developers traditionally have had two choices in managing wastewater: locate a new development where connections could be made to a community’s established sanitary sewer system or deal with the hassles of local and state regulations, lot sizes, loss of lots, discharge limitations and approvals. Our advanced wastewater treatment systems provide new design alternatives that are superior to gravity-fed systems or septic systems giving developers the flexibility to build anywhere without concern for elevation, soil type, or distance to the nearest municipality.

This position is located at our Walker, LA, facility where we manufacture advanced wastewater treatment units for residential and commercial decentralized wastewater treatment systems.
