- Perform advanced calculations in soil‑structure interaction, stability, and numerical modeling.
- Prepare engineering deliverables including drawings, specifications, and technical reports.
- Supervise and validate work produced by junior engineers and technicians.
- Contribute to feasibility studies, planning, and cost estimation for major underground and structural works.

- Support client interactions by proposing optimized, safe, and innovative solutions.
The Skills That Set You Apart

- 8+ years of experience in soil/rock interaction, underground structures, or geostructural design.
- Demonstrated expertise in temporary and permanent excavation shoring systems (diaphragm walls, anchors, piles, shotcrete, etc.).
- Proficiency with advanced analysis tools (RS2/RS3, PLAXIS, MIDAS, GeoStudio, Robot, SAP2000, or similar).
- Strong knowledge of Canadian and international design codes.
- Excellent communication and technical writing capabilities.
- Ability to manage multiple concurrent assignments and deliver high‑quality work under deadlines.
- Fluency in French; bilingualism (French/English) is an asset.
