• Analyze laboratory and field-testing data, including geotechnical and material characterization results.

• Perform geotechnical evaluations including slope stability, seepage, settlement, consolidation, filter compatibility, and mass balance analyses.

• Process and evaluate monitoring data from instrumentation systems such as piezometers, inclinometers, and settlement plates.

• Develop volumetric surface models, alignments, profiles, cross-sections, and quantity estimates for engineering projects.

• Support the design of mining and infrastructure components.

• Contribute to dam breach and tailings facility assessments by preparing technical inputs and engineering analyses.

We Are Looking for Someone Who Has:

• Degree in Civil Engineering.

• Two to five years of relevant professional experience in consulting, mining, geotechnical, or civil engineering projects.

• Strong understanding of engineering design principles, technical reporting, and interpretation of drawings, plans, diagrams, and specifications.

• Experience with engineering software such as GeoStudio (Slope/W, Seep/W), AutoCAD, Global Mapper, Google Earth, and related technical applications. Experience with Civil 3D, Rocscience, FLAC, Muck3D, Strata, or similar tools is considered an asset.
