Design Engineer-Piling & Shoring

Responsibilities

• Prepare designs and calculations for piling systems (e.g., bored piles, CFA piles and micro piles).
• Develop and design shoring systems and temporary retaining structures, such as secant and contiguous pile walls, sheet piles, soldier pile walls, diaphragm walls, anchors, and struts.
• Carry out geotechnical and structural analysis using design software (e.g., PLAXIS, WALLAP, Oasys, SAFE, STAAD, or similar).
• Interpret geotechnical investigation reports and provide appropriate foundation and retaining wall solutions.
• Prepare technical drawings, design sketches, and reports for internal review and client submission.
• Ensure all designs comply with Eurocodes, ACI & BS standards, and local authority regulations.
• Provide technical support to project and site teams during construction, addressing design queries and modifications.
• Participate in tender design preparation, offering value engineering solutions to optimize cost and performance.
• Conduct design risk assessments and assist in developing method statements.
• Attend technical meetings and site visits to review design implementation and provide engineering input.
• Coordinate with consultants, clients, and subcontractors on technical design aspects.

• Bachelor’s Degree in Civil or Geotechnical Engineering (Master’s preferred).
• 7–8 years of experience in design engineering within a piling, shoring, or geotechnical contracting company.
• Strong knowledge of piling systems, shoring methods, and temporary works design.
• Proficient in AutoCAD and relevant design software (e.g., PLAXIS, WALLAP, Oasys, SAFE, STAAD Pro).
• Good understanding of soil–structure interaction, ground behavior, and foundation design principles.
