  • Analyze rock mass behavior and ground movements, and review associated technical reports.
  • Coordinate geotechnical, geological, and structural engineering inputs across disciplines.
  • Evaluate change requests and Engineering Directives (EDs).
  • Participate in technical meetings with contractors and project stakeholders.
  • Contribute to the development and enhancement of technical specifications related to ground support systems, rock bolting, shotcrete, anchors, geotechnical instrumentation, and other associated underground works.

Qualifications

  • More than 4 years of experience in the design, construction, or operation of tunnels excavated using Tunnel Boring Machines (TBMs).
  • Strong understanding of geotechnical and structural engineering principles as applied to tunneling projects.
  • Experience reviewing and validating technical deliverables, including calculation reports, drawings, and technical reports.
  • Ability to effectively coordinate and communicate with multiple disciplines and project teams.
  • Proficiency with relevant engineering software and computer applications.

Preferred
