This will significantly enhance the water quality of the Potomac and Anacostia Rivers and Rock Creek while bolstering the sewer system’s capacity.

  • Assist mining operations by mapping and guiding underground production headings
  • Study architectural and engineering drawings and specifications to estimate total costs, and prepare detailed cost plans and estimates as tools to assist in budgetary control
  • Monitor changes to designs, assessing effects on cost, and measuring, valuing and negotiating variations to designs
  • Interpret test results to prepare designs, technical reports, specifications, geological mapping and other necessary deliverables
  • Perform ongoing geotechnical analysis to assess construction site condition and perform field and environmental investigations
  • Provide geotechnical recommendations for the mining and construction activities on an ongoing base and the Project life cycle
  • Actively participate in and drive a culture of collaboration, discipline, innovation, adaptability to change and care

  • Minimum of 5 years of relevant professional experience in geology or geotechnical engineering.
  • Minimum 2 years of experience in identifying soils, evaluating rock formations, and characterizing ground conditions and behavior.
  • Minimum 2 years of experience in field boring inspection and associated activities, including logging borings and identifying samples for geotechnical instrumentation installation.
  • Registered Geologist (or equivalent professional certification).
  • Proficient knowledge of project management structures, plans, specifications, and standards, with an understanding of their implications for project accountabilities.
  • Familiarity with design and architectural systems.
  • Strong skills in company-wide or business-level design planning, development, and management system review.
