Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada Arcadis Full time
Description

Arcadis is the world's leading company delivering sustainable design, engineering, and consultancy solutions for natural and built assets.

We are more than 36,000 people, in over 70 countries, dedicated to improving quality of life. Everyone has an important role to play. With the power of many curious minds, together we can solve the world's most complex challenges and deliver more impact together.

Role description:

Arcadis is a global leader in design and engineering for a sustainable future. Our Mobility Design & Engineering team is a dynamic group of professionals delivering high-quality civil, structural and geotechnical solutions across Canada. We are committed to fostering a collaborative, innovative and inclusive environment where our people can grow, excel and contribute meaningfully to our clients' success and the communities we serve.

We are seeking an Intermediate Geotechnical Engineer to join our growing Geotechnics team in Western Canada (based in Vancouver). In this role you will work under the direction of senior technical leads and project managers, contributing to the investigation, analysis, design and delivery of multi-discipline infrastructure projects spanning roads, transit, ports and marine sectors. You will gain exposure to large-scale assignments while learning and advancing your technical and consulting capabilities.

This role offers the chance to work with a high-performing team, mentor junior staff, build strong client relationships and leverage Arcadis's national and global resources and expertise.

Role accountabilities:

In this role, you will assist in planning and executing geotechnical site investigations, overseeing activities such as mobilization, field data collection, subcontractor coordination, and diligent logging of geotechnical data. You will be responsible for conducting engineering analyses and design work under supervision, supporting a range of projects involving foundation systems, retaining structures, slopes and embankments, excavations and tunnels, as well as ground improvement measures.

You will interpret soil, rock, and groundwater conditions, leveraging your findings to produce reliable geotechnical recommendations and parameters that inform both design and construction phases. Additionally, you will prepare and review a variety of technical deliverables, including geotechnical interpretative reports, design reports, technical memoranda, calculations, drawings, and cost estimates. Providing construction support services will also be a key aspect of the role, requiring you to review contractor submissions, conduct site observations, assess changed conditions, and collaborate closely with construction teams and clients.

Participation in multi-discipline project teams will be an important part of your responsibilities, where you will help support scope, schedule, and budget activities, and coordinate effectively with other engineering disciplines and internal teams. You will contribute to client engagements by assisting in proposal development, work-planning, budgeting, and preparing submission materials to ensure successful project delivery.

Furthermore, in this role you will support mentoring and knowledge sharing with junior engineers and technologists, encouraging technical growth and fostering a collaborative learning environment. You will be expected to stay current with industry best practices, emerging technologies, relevant codes, and digital delivery methods, actively contributing to process improvements within the Geotechnics practice.

Qualifications & Experience:

  • Bachelor's degree in Geotechnical, Civil or Geological Engineering; a Master's degree in geotechnical engineering or related discipline is an asset
  • Eligible for registration as a Professional Engineer (P.Eng.) in British Columbia (or already registered) or willing to pursue registration
  • Typically 3-8 years of progressive experience in geotechnical engineering consultancy or infrastructure design and delivery, with some exposure to transportation, transit, ports/marine or heavy civil sectors
  • Experience interpreting geotechnical investigations and preparing geotechnical interpretative reports and design reports
  • Knowledge of geotechnical design of foundations, retaining structures, slopes, earthworks and ground improvement; familiarity with seismic, liquefaction or numerical modelling is an asset
  • Proficiency with geotechnical and design software (for example: GeoStudio Suite, PLAXIS, Slide, CPeTiT, CLiq, LiqSV, Settle3, LPile / APile / RS Pile or equivalent), and with technical report writing
  • Strong verbal and written communication skills with ability to convey technical findings clearly; excellent interpersonal, problem-solving and collaborative skills
  • A positive and proactive attitude with the ability to work effectively both independently and as part of a multi-discipline team, manage multiple tasks and learn new technical domains
  • Valid driver's licence and willingness to travel to sites within Western Canada as required
