Our software automates the preliminary engineering of water and wastewater treatment facilities, electrical substations, and other assets; incorporating innovative and sustainable technologies to ensure safe, equitable access to resilient infrastructure worldwide.

Are you ready for a challenge?
We invite you to be part of a team accomplishing Transcend’s mission to transform the way engineering firms, utilities, and technology suppliers assess and design critical water infrastructure!

If you’re excited about changing the water or engineering industry, and are passionate about seeing customers succeed, then you should check out Transcend. Our software is the only product on the market that can automate the preliminary engineering (first 30%) of a water facility – incorporating innovative, sustainable treatment technologies to ultimately ensure safe, equitable access to clean water around the world.

We put an extraordinary amount of effort and expertise into building the best design automation platform on the market today. And we want you to help our customers make the best use of the tool – creating an experience clients love and can’t imagine living without.

Transcend is disrupting the Engineering and Construction industry. Transcend Design Generator (“TDG”), a first-of-its-kind generative design software platform, enables the companies that design our global infrastructure to automate Design & Engineering work that is currently done manually. There is over 500 billion dollars spent on engineering services each year, and capital planning and project development processes have not changed in decades. These companies are critical to our future, as they design our water, power, roads, and other core infrastructure. Due to their archaic processes, they are not innovating fast enough to impact our environment and help solve Climate Change. Over the last 10 years Transcend has developed and implemented a cloud-based software that completely changes the traditional process and transforms the culture of these engineering and construction firms around the world. The company has a unique remote culture with offices in Europe and the USA.
