Across all our businesses, we are driven by innovation, extreme ownership, technical excellence, and a relentless commitment to measurable results that improve safety and infrastructure resilience.
Job Summary
Field Engineers at GSI are technical leaders embedded in active geohazard mitigation projects. You won't be an observer-you'll be an owner. Your decisions impact safety outcomes, project margins, and how our engineering solutions perform under real-world conditions. This role demands intellectual rigor, autonomy, and the ability to solve complex technical problems with incomplete information in high-stakes field environments.
If you thrive on translating theory into engineered solutions, want to work on meaningful infrastructure projects, and are motivated by measurable impact, this is your opportunity to grow into a senior technical or leadership role.
Core Responsibilities: What You'll Own
Technical Field Leadership

• Serve as the primary on-site technical authority, translating design specifications into field execution while maintaining rigorous quality and safety standards. Make real-time engineering decisions that balance performance, cost, and schedule.
• Site Investigation & Geotechnical Analysis
• Conduct slope assessments, geotechnical testing, and rope-access inspections in challenging terrain. Develop rapid-turnaround site characterizations that inform design decisions and mitigation strategy.
• Design Implementation & Adaptive Problem-Solving
• Implement complex geohazard mitigation systems (soil stabilization, rockfall prevention, slope reinforcement). When field conditions diverge from design assumptions, develop and validate alternative solutions in real time-with engineering rigor.

Coordination & Documentation

• Coordinate directly with project management, engineering staff, and construction teams. Document as-built conditions, material performance, and construction progress with precision for technical reporting and project controls. Be the reliable source of truth on field conditions.

Safety & Quality Ownership

• Maintain and champion safety protocols in the field. Identify hazards, propose controls, and ensure every team member goes home safe. Quality is non-negotiable-develop the discipline and systems to prevent defects.

Who Succeeds Here: Good vs. Great
A Good Field Engineer follows specifications, documents observations, and reports issues up the chain.
A Great Field Engineer owns outcomes. They possess the intellectual horsepower to understand why design decisions were made, anticipate failure modes before they occur, and develop creative solutions under constraints. They communicate with precision, take initiative without waiting for direction, and build trust through reliability and sound judgment. They view field data not as check-box documentation but as evidence that informs continuous improvement.
You should apply if you:

• Hold a Bachelor's degree in Civil Engineering, Geological Engineering, or related field (EIT or PE certification valued; exceptional candidates without formal credentials will be considered based on demonstrated capability).
• Have a track record of translating technical knowledge into measurable outcomes-examples: identified cost savings, improved safety metrics, accelerated project timelines, or delivered solutions under difficult field constraints.
• Are analytically rigorous and comfortable with ambiguity. You can assess incomplete information, develop hypotheses, test them, and iterate toward solutions.
• Communicate with precision-both in writing (reports, emails, technical documentation) and verbally. Clarity is a proxy for clear thinking.
• Demonstrate extreme ownership: you don't blame systems or others; you ask "What could I have done differently?" and act on it.
• Are energized by high-responsibility field work and willing to spend 70% of your time traveling to active project sites across the U.S., Canada, or Australasia.
• Are technically fluent in Microsoft Office, AutoCAD, and slope stability software (SLIDE, PLAXIS, or equivalent). If you haven't used a specific tool, you learn it quickly.
