Our work encompasses a wide range of activities, from field exploration and laboratory testing to the design and management of intricate geotechnical structures.

Your Opportunity

  • Review boring logs and laboratory results.
  • Perform basic calculations and undertake other duties as assigned under the guidance of a project engineer.
  • Support the execution of detailed analyses and evaluations of geotechnical hazards during the design and construction phases of projects.
  • Contribute to the preparation of designs, drawings, specifications, presentations, and reports.

  • Carry out additional duties as assigned.
Your Capabilities and Credentials
  • Understanding of geotechnical engineering principles and analytical methods.
  • Ability to collaborate effectively in team settings and engage in innovative and critical thinking.
  • Proficiency in interpreting engineering drawings and related materials.
  • Basic experience with Microsoft Office and familiarity with AutoCAD Civil3D, GeoStudio, and gINT.
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills.
  • Willingness to travel as necessary to support geotechnical investigations and construction activities.
Education and Experience
  • Bachelor's degree in Civil Engineering or a related field; a Master's degree in Geotechnical Engineering is preferred.
  • Successful completion of the FE exam and current EIT status is required.
  • 0-5 years of relevant experience; preference for candidates with over 3 years of geotechnical experience.
  • Co-op or internship experience is advantageous.

This position typically involves working in an office environment with extended periods at a desk, as well as fieldwork that may expose you to various weather conditions and require the handling of moderately heavy equipment and soil/rock samples.
