Overview
Terrane Engineering Group is a geotechnical consultancy primarily located in the Lower Mainland that specializes in geotechnical components of foundation, seismic and dewatering design, and project related site preparation. The projects we assist with are wide ranging in size and technical considerations. We have satellite offices in Chilliwack and Langford, with our head office in North Vancouver.
We are seeking an experienced, conscientious, independent thinking and energetic (hopefully charismatic) geotechnical engineer to join our group on a long-term basis.
As a geotechnical project engineer with us you will be responsible for communicating effectively in written and verbal formats, and on a daily basis you will be attending project team meetings, designing and planning site characterization programs, writing memos, letters and reports, and performing detailed engineering analyses and design regarding all facets of the geotechnical scope for the project.
You will be supported by team project engineers with experience levels between 2 and 35 years. You will be provided with all hardware, software, tools, equipment and our long-term relationships with senior industry professionals as required to help ensure your projects are well planned, carried out, communicated and constructed.
We believe that our compensation and benefit schemes are the highest in the industry, offering pay rates, positive work environments, flexible work hours and conditions, and benefits that exceed those of other engineering firms.
We are contracted to assist with hundreds of new projects each year and thus, any particular or detailed interest you may have within a division or aspect of geotechnical engineering can be further developed, as you wish – such as; deep foundation design (driven piles, drilled piles, micropiles, helical piles), temporary excavation support – shoring (shotcrete and anchors, H-Piles with Lagging, tangent piles), soil and rock slope stability and site preparation (preloading, densification).
Roles and Responsibilities
You will be responsible for all phases of project delivery including responding to requests for geotechnical input, site characterization programs (planning, coordinating and supervising), detailed geotechnical analyses, report writing, and project management during construction.
As a member of our team, you will be requested to assist with other engineers' projects from time to time. This may include performing field reviews, engineering analyses, memo, letter and report writing or perhaps even temporarily acting as a project engineer for another staff member.
Preferred Qualifications and Characteristics:
- Energetic, conscientious, responsible and independent thinker,
- Excellent communication skills and in all manner of communications,
- Minimum of 5 to 10 years of project related experience as a geotechnical engineer ideally in the Lower Mainland, Sunshine Coast, Sea-to-sky corridor or Vancouver Island
- Must be currently registered or eligible as an EIT or P.Eng., with EGBC
- Ideally formal post-graduate education in geotechnical engineering,
- has developed a strong knowledge of geotechnical engineering principles and practices
- Proficiency in geotechnical engineering software, including AutoCAD.
- Experience with project management techniques to effectively plan, organize, and execute projects
- Familiarity with system design concepts related to geotechnical engineering
- Excellent problem-solving skills and attention to detail
- Must have valid Class 5 BC Drivers License
Join our team as a Geotechnical Engineer where your expertise will contribute significantly to the success of our projects while fostering your professional growth in a supportive environment.
