What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a Remote Contract Developer, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Remote Contract Developer, you need strong programming skills, experience with relevant frameworks or languages, and a proven track record in software development projects. Familiarity with version control systems like Git, cloud platforms, and collaborative tools such as Jira or Slack is typically required. Excellent time management, proactive communication, and self-motivation are vital soft skills for remote work success. These qualities enable developers to deliver high-quality results independently, maintain client satisfaction, and collaborate effectively from a distance.

What is a Remote Contract Developer?

A Remote Contract Developer is a software professional who is hired on a contract basis to work on specific projects or tasks for a company, but performs their work entirely remotely, often from their own home or a location of their choosing. These developers may work for multiple clients at once and are typically responsible for writing, testing, and maintaining code according to project requirements. The remote aspect allows for flexibility in work location and hours, while the contract nature means employment is usually for a fixed term or until the completion of a particular project. Remote contract developers often need strong communication and time-management skills to coordinate effectively with distributed teams.

How do Remote Contract Developers typically communicate and collaborate with clients and team members?

Remote Contract Developers often rely on a combination of communication tools such as Slack, Zoom, and project management platforms like Jira or Trello to stay connected with clients and colleagues. Regular check-ins, daily standups, and clear documentation are essential for staying aligned on project goals and deadlines. Since team members may be spread across different time zones, flexibility and proactive communication are key to ensuring smooth collaboration and successful project delivery.

Job description

Description

Your role at GEI.
 
GEI is seeking an experienced structural engineer to join our dams and water resources consulting practice.  Dams, reservoirs, hydroelectric developments, and other water resources facilities are crucial components of our nation’s infrastructure, providing clean energy, water supply, and flood control.  GEI serves public and private clients operating some of the largest and most interesting water resources projects in the world.  Our roles include designing new facilities, upgrading existing developments, evaluating safety, and assessing risks.  As part of GEI’s dams and water resources practice, you will work with the leading experts in dams and dam safety at one of the premier firms in the industry.
 
This position can be filled in our Woburn or Franklin (MA), Bedford (NH), Portland (ME), or Ithaca (NY) offices, with an expectation of about three days a week in-office (i.e., about two days remote).  Dams in our clients’ portfolios are in some of the most spectacularly scenic parts of the country, including the Connecticut River Valley in Vermont and New Hampshire, the lakes of central Maine, the Rocky Mountains in Colorado, and the Sierra Nevada Mountains in California.  Work will occasionally require the ability and willingness to hike moderate distances (5+ miles), traverse steep terrain, climb ladders, enter narrow galleries, and access remote sites by off-road vehicle and helicopter.
 
Essential Responsibilities & Duties 
  • Serve as structural lead, and/or project/task manager.
  • Oversee and review designs developed by staff engineers. Mentor and promote technical development of staff engineers.
  • Analyze new and existing concrete gravity dams, arch dams, buttress dams, spillways, powerhouses, intake towers, penstocks, dam gates, and similar structures for stresses, stability, and performance under extreme loads.
  • Analyze and design other facilities as needed, including foundations, retaining walls, temporary works, and special structures.
  • Develop and evaluate alternatives for new facilities and upgrades to existing projects.
  • Complete detailed design calculations and prepare contract documents and technical specifications.
  • Inspect ongoing dam and water resources construction projects for conformance with design requirements.
  • Inspect existing projects as part of regulatory compliance programs (e.g., FERC Part 12D).
  • Participate in semi-quantitative risk analysis workshops.
  • Prepare formal written reports, give presentations, and participate in internal and client meetings.
  • Prepare scopes of work, budgets, and schedules.
 Minimum Qualifications
  • B.S. in Civil Engineering from an accredited program.
  • 7 to 15+ years’ experience in structural engineering related to dams and water resources structures.
  • Professional Engineer licensure or the ability to obtain licensure within one year of hire.
  • Experience with structural analysis software (SAP2000/STAAD/RISA/ANSYS, etc.) and AutoCAD.
  • Excellent verbal and written communications skills.
  • Valid driver’s license.
  • Ability to travel on temporary assignments.
  • Willingness and ability to work in the field and in inclement weather.
Desired Qualifications
  • Experience managing multi-discipline design projects.
  • Experience in analysis and design of hydraulic structures.
  • M.S. in Structural Engineering.
  • Experience with Revit modeling or BIM.
  • Structural Engineer licensure.
