In this role, you’ll apply your geotechnical and hydrotechnical expertise to assess risks and support practical solutions that strengthen long‑term system reliability. You’ll work closely with the Senior Geotechnical Engineer on complex assignments while independently managing a variety of small to medium‑scale projects.

You’ll collaborate with engineering, operations, and project teams on Capital and Operations and Maintenance initiatives that require geotechnical or hydrotechnical input. The role also involves coordinating with external consultants as part of Fortis

Clear communication and collaboration are essential, as you’ll work across teams and help translate technical information into practical guidance that supports safety, regulatory expectations, and informed decision‑making.

This is an opportunity to work on meaningful, real‑world challenges while helping protect communities and strengthen critical energy infrastructure across British Columbia.

• Develop a solid understanding of the company’s pipeline system, geohazard inventory, monitoring tools, and integrity management processes.
• Lead several small to medium geotechnical assignments from scoping through reporting, demonstrating sound engineering judgment and consistent quality.
• Build effective working relationships with operations, construction, environment, and project management teams.

• Develop mitigation concepts independently and contribute to design reviews with well‑supported engineering recommendations.
• Play a key role in the annual geohazard monitoring and hydrotechnical, including identifying recurring issues or emerging trends and propose improvements to monitoring strategies, data interpretation methods, or mitigation planning.
• Serve as a trusted technical resource for operations, construction, and project teams by providing timely guidance, supporting field execution, and improving communication of geotechnical risks to non‑technical stakeholders.

• Bachelor’s degree in engineering with 5-8 years of relevant geotechnical or hydrotechnical experience
• P.Eng. designation in BC required.
• Experience in geotechnical engineering, including slope stability, earthworks, geohazard assessment, or related fields.
