What You'll Be Doing - Perform and coordinate geotechnical and civil engineering tasks for remediation and infrastructure projects, including cutoff walls, mines, landfills, bridge foundations, roadways, retaining walls, excavations, and solidification.
- Conduct site assessments to evaluate topography, soil conditions, existing geotechnical data, utility conditions, construction feasibility, operational constraints, and site-specific cost and schedule drivers.
- Perform and coordinate field investigations, site visits, geotechnical evaluations, and construction field assignments.
- Develop investigation programs, review boring logs, prepare subsurface soil profiles, and coordinate laboratory testing programs.
- Analyze and interpret laboratory and field data, including soil, geotechnical, and related environmental information.
- Perform engineering calculations and analyses, including slope stability, settlement, and finite element analysis.
- Prepare design reports, technical memoranda, calculations, drawings, specifications, site assessment reports, maps, and other technical deliverables.
- Assist with constructability reviews and confirm that designs, materials, and construction methods are consistent with contract documents, applicable criteria, and design intent.
- Support construction management activities, including site inspections, quality assurance, safety reviews, verification of corrective actions, and evaluation of work for compliance with drawings, specifications, codes, and approved submittals.
- Review technical submittals, shop drawings, material data, testing documentation, and contractor responses to Requests for Information.
- Monitor construction progress and coordinate with project teams to evaluate schedule impacts, differing site conditions, and potential delays.
- Support the preparation of technical recommendations related to cost, schedule, constructability, and proposed changes.
- Coordinate with government personnel, contractors, designers, installation representatives, utility providers, regulatory agencies, and other stakeholders.
- Support GIS-based site evaluations, digital reconnaissance, site documentation, and preparation of detailed site maps.
- Work effectively and collaboratively with multidisciplinary project teams and support multiple concurrent task orders.
- Manage assigned tasks and develop the skills necessary to grow into a project manager or technical lead role.
- Travel for project work, including to remote mine sites and geographically dispersed locations in the United States and Canada.
- Implement behavior-based safety practices to support incident-free operations, including prevention of personal injuries, property damage, and environmental releases.
What Required Skills You'll Bring- Active Secret security clearance required
- Bachelor's degree in Civil Engineering, Geotechnical Engineering, or a related field.
- 5+ years of related experience in geotechnical engineering, civil engineering, remediation, mining, infrastructure design, or construction.
- Experience with geotechnical investigations, subsurface characterization, foundation or earthwork design, slope stability, settlement, or related analyses.
- Experience preparing technical reports, design calculations, engineering drawings, specifications, and construction documentation.
- Ability to coordinate field investigations, laboratory testing, site assessments, and technical evaluations.
- Strong written, verbal, analytical, organizational, and interpersonal communication skills.
- Ability to work collaboratively with engineers, environmental professionals, construction managers, contractors, government personnel, and other stakeholders.
- Proficiency with Microsoft Office and other engineering software applications.
- Willingness and ability to travel for project work, including remote and geographically dispersed sites.
- Ability to obtain required site-access credentials and comply with applicable security, safety, and information-safeguarding requirements. Certain assignments may require access to secure Government facilities.
What Desired Skills You'll Bring - Master's degree in Geotechnical Engineering, Civil Engineering, or a related discipline.
- Professional Engineer registration or Engineer-in-Training certification.
- Experience with CAD and geotechnical software such as PLAXIS, Rocscience, and GeoStudio.
- Experience with GIS, digital site reconnaissance, geospatial data, and preparation of site-specific maps.
- Experience supporting federal facilities, military installations, major infrastructure, or design-build projects.
- Familiarity with Unified Facilities Criteria, Unified Facilities Guide Specifications, applicable building codes, OSHA requirements, and EM 385-1-1.
- Experience reviewing construction submittals, RFIs, schedules, quality-control documentation, and safety plans.
- Experience with construction inspections, constructability reviews, differing site conditions, and technical resolution of field issues.
- Experience developing Rough Order of Magnitude estimates and identifying cost and schedule risks during site assessment.
- Experience with remediation, mining, landfills, environmental construction, contaminated sites, or geo-environmental projects.
- OSHA 40-hour HAZWOPER training or ability to obtain it.
- Experience mentoring junior engineers and developing into a task, project, or technical lead.
- Experience supporting projects across multiple locations and managing concurrent assignments.
Additional Position Expectations- Employees must follow applicable project safety, quality, security, and environmental requirements.
- Contractor personnel will provide technical analysis, recommendations, and support but will not perform inherently governmental functions or make commitments on behalf of the Government.
