Description

Geofirma Engineering Ltd. is looking for a computational modeler to join our team working on groundwater flow, contaminant transport, and geomechanics.

You would be joining a team of experienced professionals who conduct leading-edge modelling for radioactive waste management, carbon sequestration, energy storage, and other significant subsurface activities.

A deep knowledge of the scientific and mathematical basis of fluid flow and transport modelling is required, and the position requires substantial data analysis skills.

Duties for the position include:

Building physicsbased models of geological systems to describe subsurface flow of multiple fluid phases and geomechanical effects of pressure alteration in the subsurface.
Performing experiments on large geophysical databases to develop new relationships between geophysical log data and fundamental properties of subsurface flow systems.
Application of machine learning, including artificial neural networks, to optimization problems such as injection well placement and minimization of pipeline network length.
Develop programing scripts and software for extracting, cleaning, and organizing large and complex datasets.
Create high quality visualizations to communicate complex scientific and engineering concepts and model results to colleagues and clients.
Writing high quality clientfacing reports or memos which translate complex scientific and engineering products and concepts to provide actionable information to clients.
