Context
As a Geotechnical Engineer, you will play a key supporting role in the investigation, design, and delivery of geotechnical solutions for foundation and pavement engineering projects within the transportation, infrastructure, and major projects sectors.
Missions/Main Duties
- Support the planning, design, and delivery of geotechnical investigations for foundation and pavement engineering projects across transportation, infrastructure, and major developments.
- Provide technical support, design input, and undertake reporting tasks
- Perform seismic hazard assessments, liquefaction evaluations, and numerical modelling to support project design.
- Develop geotechnical design recommendations for foundation systems and related infrastructure.
- Provide technical input on foundation design, ground response analyses, seismic site characterization, and seismic design considerations.
- Coordinate with structural and other design disciplines to ensure geotechnical recommendations are effectively integrated into the overall design.
- Contribute to the design and assessment of foundations, roads and pavements, retaining structures, slope stability, and ground improvement solutions.
- Participate in field activities, including site supervision, drilling operations, construction monitoring, and laboratory testing support.
- Work collaboratively with multidisciplinary teams to help deliver project objectives on time and within budget.
