At our core, we are a community. Together, we exercise creative thought, developing engineering and designs as individual as the people and projects that we touch. From approval and permitting to design, construction and closure, we put the goals of our clients and their communities at the center of everything that we create. Join us as we assist mining companies in getting mined materials to communities around the globe.
Stantec is seeking a Senior Geotechnical Engineer to join our Mining, Minerals and Metals practice in our Calgary, AB office. This position will work collaboratively with other Stantec offices across Canada, the United States, South America and Australia, to support the service needs of our clients on local and international projects, primarily on metal, coal and large oil sands mining projects.

- Lead the planning and completion of geotechnical site investigations. This may include instrumentation, logging, sampling, and field testing.

- Lead the development of technical drawings, figures and models.
- Lead the preparation of project technical proposals.
- Provide peer/senior review of technical deliverables and designs.
- Comply with and actively participate in Stantec and client safety programs.
- Lead work in line with Stantec Core Values and in accordance with the Stantec Quality, Safety & Environment Systems and Project Quality Procedures
- Critical and flexible thinking to provide tailored, practical solutions to our clients with a sound technical base, considering the time and recourses available.
- Experience in some or all of our core geotechnical areas of expertise noted above.
- Demonstrated ability to lead or mentor a team of engineering professionals in various stages of career development.
- Understanding of mining operations and mine waste management, geotechnical material characterization (particularly mined materials), slope stability, deformation analyses, liquefaction potential, seismic hazard assessments, seepage and foundation characteristics of dams/tailing storage facilities.
- Possess strong problem-solving skills and ability to make timely decisions or lead and develop others to do so.
- Ability to communicate clearly and effectively in English (both written and oral). Proficiency in Spanish, Portuguese or French is an asset.
- Proven ability to work in a professional team environment with a diversity of cultures, gender, nationalities, religions, sexual orientations, age, etc.
- Experience in a consulting engineering environment at a senior technical management level.
- Working knowledge of the Microsoft Office suite of programs and CAD systems.
- Technical expertise in specialized geotechnical software (e.g. GeoStudio, Rocsience, etc.).
- Work experience in mining or resource industries is an asset.
- Ability to conduct work in a safe manner maintaining a high degree of situational awareness.
- Open mind and bias self-awareness to participate in the adaptation and implementation of new technology initiatives to advance our technical practice.
- Bachelor’s, Master’s or PhD’s degree in geotechnical, geological, or civil or mining engineering.
- 10+ years industry or consulting experience.
- Valid Class 5 Driver's License and satisfactory Driver's Abstract, per Stantec's Safe Driving Policy.
