Listing Info

Our client specializes in providing geologic and geotechnical analysis, and engineering design services for a wide range of structures and facilities. Our client provides detailed client support throughout all project phases, from the initial site characterization to alternative analyses, design, and construction observation.

The Engineering Geologist is a key role in the firm and will characterize, evaluate, and solve complex engineering geology problems related to water conveyance/storage, hydropower, and infrastructure projects.

Responsibilities

• Review existing project data and requirements
• Prepare budgets, schedules, and reports needed to achieve project goals
• Conduct/supervise geologic investigations to characterize and evaluate geologic/geotechnical conditions, and to identify geologic factors that could impact the design, construction, and/or long-term performance of engineered structures
• Perform client coordination and attend client meetings
• Manage geosciences/engineering personnel to accomplish tasks
• Manage existing clients, develop new clients, and identify new business opportunities
• Overtime may be necessary as workload dictates. This may include weekdays, weekends and/or holiday time
• Job will generally be performed in an office environment, but will periodically require travel to visit a Clients office or construction job site

Requirements - Qualifications

• Registration as a Certified Engineering Geologist (CEG) in the State of California or the ability to obtain this registration within 12 months
• 10 to 15 years of experience in engineering geology, primarily related to water conveyance/storage, hydropower, and infrastructure projects
• BS degree in Geology or related discipline. MS degree preferred
• Experience in developing, conducting, and managing engineering geology investigations independently or as part of an overall geotechnical investigation
• Experience in conducting/managing detailed geologic investigations, including geologic hazard evaluations, earthquake fault studies, seismic source characterizations, rock slope stability assessments, landslide evaluations, and subsurface exploration programs to evaluate soil, rock, and groundwater conditions.
• Experience with assessing rock stability (in cut slopes and within tunnels), performing computer-based stereonet/kinematic analysis and rockfall simulations, and performing design of rock support/rockfall mitigation is preferred
• Rope access training or certification (e.g., SPRAT) a plus
• Excellent oral and written communication skills
• Experience in business and client development
