Geotechnical Engineer

Description:


Geotechnical Engineer will serve as a subject-matter resource in the analysis, evaluation, construction, and risk assessment of geotechnical and foundations engineering projects. This includes site characterization, analysis and design, construction, risk identification and mitigation, and remediation of subsurface conditions for various geotechnical features such as structure foundations, earth retaining structures, earthworks & mass grading, cut/fill slopes and embankments, among others.

The ideal candidate should have practical experience in geotechnical design and construction, and possess a strong background in design, construction, operation, and risk mitigation within complex and mission-critical facilities, rather than office-based on small-type projects or limited exposure. The ideal candidate should also have direct experience with the development of program level guidance and scope of works for site characterization, risk identification, design requirements, shallow and deep foundations, ground improvement, construction specifications, mitigation of problematic ground conditions, and quality control / assurance.

Knowledge of large-scale mission-critical facility controls, and monitoring systems is highly desirable.

Responsibilities:


? Serve as an in-house technical resource on all aspects of Geotechnical & Foundations Engineering


? Provide exceptional and responsive customer service, manage a complex and dynamic workload, and be proactive in identifying and addressing a customer's needs


? Provide technical assistance to multiple internal clients on a wide variety of topics in the areas of civil and geotechnical engineering


? Prepare and provide various types of documents, including scope of work statements, conceptual schematic designs, design specifications, construction specifications, drawing markups, total cost of ownership analyses, budget estimates, schedules, acceptance documents, and review and acceptance of as-builts and submittals


? Conduct reviews of and critique geotechnical reports, design memoranda, design solutions, construction drawings, and other relevant project documents


? Actively assist project teams and provide input pertaining to risks/hazards and possible limitations of the proposed site


? Proactively identify and collaborate to address gaps in program-level guidance and specifications

Requirements (minimum):


? Master's degree in Civil/ Geotechnical Engineering or equivalent practical experience


? Minimum of 7 years of experience working with mission-critical facilities


? Minimum of 10 years of practical and progressive experience in applying Geotechnical Design and Geotechnical Construction Engineering principles, methods, practices, standards, and/or procedures to evaluate geotechnical engineering features at project delivery level


? Knowledgeable of compliance requirements of pertinent codes, regulations, and standards


? Knowledgeable of the various types of project delivery processes


? Ability to generate conceptual schematic drawings, SOW statements, and budget estimates


? Ability to travel
