Civil Engineer, Mid-level – Geotechnics

Description

Job Summary: The Mid-level Geotechnical Engineer independently develops geotechnical projects from concept through execution design, collaborates within multidisciplinary teams, and ensures technical compliance. Key Highlights: 1. Autonomous development of geotechnical projects 2. Collaboration with multidisciplinary teams to deliver integrated solutions 3. Active participation in workshops and evaluation of geotechnical solutions **Purpose of the Role** The Mid-level Geotechnical Engineer independently develops geotechnical projects from concept through execution design. **Your Responsibilities** * Plan geotechnical investigations and analyze their results to support design recommendations. * Prepare and review geotechnical designs, reports, and other technical deliverables. * Collaborate with multidisciplinary teams (geology, civil, structures, BIM) to deliver integrated solutions. * Support project planning, phasing, and resource allocation from a technical perspective. * Participate in client meetings, presenting technical analyses and solutions. * Ensure compliance with GEG’s quality, safety, and sustainability standards. * Actively participate in early-phase project workshops, proposing and evaluating multiple geotechnical solutions to identify the most effective approach. * Develop preliminary solutions and sizing estimates using engineering judgment and simplified analyses to rapidly assess solution feasibility and guide project development. * Provide continuous input on constructability, phasing, and risks from a geotechnical perspective, ensuring that design solutions are practical and efficient from a construction standpoint. **What We Are Looking For** **Qualifications** * Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Civil Engineering or a related technical field. **Knowledge** * Strong knowledge of soil mechanics, foundations, slope stability, and ground improvement. * Practical experience executing geotechnical projects, including design, calculations, and report preparation. * Proficiency in geotechnical analysis software and tools, particularly PLAXIS. * Ability to interpret geotechnical investigations, estimate soil parameters, and propose practical design solutions. * Familiarity with national and international safety codes, standards, and regulations. * Experience in comparative analysis of different geotechnical solutions (e.g., deep vs. shallow foundations, various retaining structures or ground improvement techniques), considering technical feasibility, suitability, cost, and constructability. * Ability to navigate and review models in BIM environments (Revit) and CAD platforms, including independently opening models, verifying geometric constraints and clashes, and effectively integrating geotechnical solutions with other disciplines. **Competencies** * **Technological Literacy –** Ability to use, understand, and adapt to digital tools and technologies relevant to the role. * **Resilience, Flexibility, and Agility** – Ability to handle change, pressure, and challenges, adapting quickly to new priorities, contexts, and project requirements. * **Curiosity and Lifelong Learning** – Continuous interest in learning, updating skills, and exploring new technical, digital, or organizational approaches, oriented toward continuous improvement. * **Motivation –** Ability to self-motivate, understand one’s own strengths and development areas, and act intentionally to continuously progress. * **Collaboration –** Ability to work effectively with others, sharing information, responsibilities, and common goals. * **Problem Solving –** Ability to take ownership of emerging challenges and address them in a structured, solution-oriented manner. * **Analytical Thinking –** Ability to analyze data, technical information, and contextual factors to support well-founded decisions. * **Creative and Innovative Thinking** – Ability to generate novel ideas and innovative solutions while staying current with industry trends, technologies, and innovative approaches. * **Autonomy –** Ability to operate independently, with ownership and accountability. * **Coordination –** Ability to align activities, people, and disciplines to ensure alignment and efficiency. **What We Offer** * Competitive salary aligned with competencies demonstrated throughout the hiring process. * Career development tailored to your aspirations, skills, and company strategy. * Highly challenging projects. * Integration into small, agile teams where your voice matters. * 25 days off (22 vacation days + Carnival + Birthday + Christmas Eve), with possibility to increase to 28 based on attendance. * Health insurance. Compensation: €29,000.00 – €38,000.00 per year Benefits: * Internet access * Meal card/ticket * Flexible working hours * Health insurance Work location: On-site
