Who are we looking for?   

Effectively investigating, assessing, and monitoring site ground conditions is essential to delivering successful projects-and we're looking for a passionate professional to lead the way. Our Geotechnical Engineering team in Tampa, FL is seeking a licensed Geotechnical Engineer (PE) to provide expert Geotechnical and Civil Engineering services across a diverse portfolio of Residential, Commercial, Municipal, Federal, Maritime, and Transportation clients. In this role, you'll manage all aspects of geotechnical project coordination and client engagement, while conducting engineering evaluations and calculations for shallow and deep foundations, ground improvement alternatives, retaining walls, slope stability (embankments and levees), pavement sections, and slabs-on-grade. You'll prepare signed and sealed final geotechnical submittals as Engineer of Record and have the opportunity to serve as the geotechnical lead on multi-discipline design projects, including those for USACE, NAVFAC and other federal stakeholders.

Beyond design, you'll play a critical role in field operations-providing oversight of construction monitoring for earthworks such as mass grading, drilled shafts, driven piles, stone columns, subsurface pressure grouting, pavement systems, and vibration monitoring. You'll oversee subcontractors and interpret specialty laboratory testing data when the need arises.  As a key contributor to our business development efforts, you'll attend industry workshops, client meetings, prepare proposals for local private entity pursuits, and support proposal teams on larger federal pursuits. If you're ready to bring technical excellence, leadership, and a collaborative spirit to a team that values innovation and impact, we'd love to hear from you.
