    Develop field data in support of geotechnical investigations and design as directed.


    Assist with verifying the characteristics of a site and providing technical assistance on various design and construction issues involving rock and soil mechanics, and investigating subsurface and geological conditions to design and build foundations, earth structures, and pavement sub-grades.


    Write technical reports summarizing research with findings and conclusions, generating complete, accurate, and concise documentation using sketches, calculations, electronic systems, spreadsheets, and software.


    Assist technical staff and project managers with risk identification and assessment, offering input and analysis with design concepts, construction, mitigation and improvement activities, and remediation projects.

    Work with cross-functional, multi-discipline teams in executing project work.

    Assist with work plan preparation and coordination of field/site work and laboratory testing.

    Work collaboratively with other engineers and planners on projects with infrastructure authorities, and development projects.


    Exercise responsible and ethical decision-making regarding company funds, resources and conduct, and adhere to WSP's Code of Conduct and related policies and procedures.

    Perform additional responsibilities as required by business needs.
