Seeking an experienced Geotechnical Engineer to support the design and delivery of complex transportation and civil infrastructure projects, including tunnels, roadway systems, foundations, retaining structures, and related infrastructure.

This is a direct-hire, permanent position.

The ideal candidate will have a strong foundation in geotechnical engineering and the ability to independently perform and review technical analyses, develop engineering recommendations, coordinate with multidisciplinary teams, and provide technical support throughout both the design and construction phases of projects.

Approximately 10 years of relevant experience is preferred; however, we are open to considering candidates with fewer years of experience who demonstrate strong technical geotechnical expertise and relevant infrastructure project experience.

• Perform and review geotechnical analyses and develop engineering recommendations for foundations, slope stability, retaining walls, earthwork, excavations, and other geotechnical components of infrastructure projects.
• Plan, coordinate, and support geotechnical site investigations, including field exploration, subsurface investigations, and laboratory testing programs.
• Conduct site reconnaissance, field visits, and construction support activities as required.
• Prepare and review geotechnical reports, engineering calculations, technical memoranda, specifications, and recommendations.
• Perform geotechnical calculations and modeling using appropriate engineering software and analytical tools.
• Review engineering plans, drawings, specifications, and other project documentation from a geotechnical perspective.
• Coordinate with structural, civil, hydraulic, transportation, and other engineering disciplines to integrate geotechnical requirements into overall project designs.
• Provide technical support during design and construction, including evaluation of field conditions and resolution of geotechnical issues.
• Support Project Managers with technical coordination, client communication, project documentation, and successful project delivery.
• Provide technical guidance and mentoring to junior engineers and other team members, as needed.
• Utilize and/or review engineering drawings developed using AutoCAD, Civil 3D, Micro Station, Open Road, or similar design platforms.

• Bachelor's degree in Civil Engineering, Geotechnical Engineering, or a closely related engineering discipline.
• Strong professional experience in geotechnical engineering, preferably involving transportation and civil infrastructure projects.
• Experience performing and reviewing geotechnical calculations, analyses, reports, and engineering recommendations.
• Knowledge of commonly used geotechnical analysis and modeling software.
• Experience supporting geotechnical investigations, design activities, and construction-phase engineering.
• Strong technical, analytical, and problem-solving capabilities.
• Ability to coordinate effectively with multidisciplinary engineering teams.
• Ability to manage assignments independently while also contributing effectively within a team environment.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills in English.

• Approximately 10 years of geotechnical engineering experience; candidates with fewer years may be considered based on the strength and relevance of their experience.
• Master's degree in Civil or Geotechnical Engineering with a geotechnical concentration.
• Experience with transportation, roadway, tunnel, or major civil infrastructure projects.
• Previous experience supporting FDOT, TnDOT, or other state Department of Transportation (Use the "Apply for this Job" box below). Engineer (PE) license or progress toward professional licensure.
• Experience with AutoCAD, Civil 3D, Micro Station, Open Road, or similar engineering/design platforms.
• Spanish language proficiency.

FDOT/DOT experience and a PE license are highly valued but are not mandatory requirements.

• Direct-hire, permanent employment
• Competitive base salary of $90,000–$105,000, depending on experience and qualifications
• Hybrid work flexibility, based on project and business requirements
• Paid vacation
• Opportunity to work within a diverse and multicultural engineering team
• Exposure to challenging and technically complex transportation and infrastructure projects
• Opportunity for continued professional and technical development
