  • Assist with developing subsurface velocity models, resistivity profiles, interpreted geologic cross-sections, figures, GIS-based exhibits, and technical memoranda.
  • Support interpretation of subsurface conditions, including depth to bedrock, overburden thickness, material stiffness, potential groundwater influences, moisture-related variability, clay-rich zones, and lateral variability.
  • Integrate geophysical results with drilling, CPT, laboratory testing, geologic mapping, and other geotechnical information to support subsurface characterization and engineering recommendations.
  • Prepare geotechnical design reports, geophysical summary reports, technical memoranda, figures, calculations, sketches, and other project deliverables under the guidance of senior staff.
  • Work with cross-functional teams, including geotechnical engineers, geologists, geophysicists, planners, environmental professionals, construction personnel, and client representatives.
  • Assist with work plan preparation, field/site work coordination, permitting support, proposal development, project planning, and client presentation materials.
