Stantec's Geotechnical practice has an immediate opportunity for a Geotechnical EIT. As a Geotechnical EIT you will provide comprehensive geotechnical services to Stantec clients from field explorations to the design and construction management of complex geotechnical structures. You will provide specialized services such as the analysis and design of foundation elements, dam and levee structures, and seismic remediation design.

With this role as a Geotechnical EIT, you will work on projects both small and large, and as a team member under the close guidance and supervision of a senior engineer. You will perform a variety of tasks related to geotechnical engineering in support of transportation, dam, power, and infrastructure projects that may include calculations, field work, coordination of simple tasks, and meeting attendance and recording.

The smaller projects that you may be assigned to will have relatively few complex features.
In general, with this geotechnical role you will assist more senior engineers/designers by performing the routine aspects of geotechnical and civil engineering assignments.
