    Requirements

    Minimum Requirements
    • A bachelor's degree in civil engineering suffices; a master's degree in geotechnical engineering wows but is not a dealbreaker.

    • Experience in construction oversight for foundation and pavement construction and earthwork observation.
    • Experience with geotechnical engineering software; we would rather you were well-versed in a few than only-sort-of-acquainted with many.
    • Familiarity with Caltrans and AASHTO standards, guidelines, and deliverables.
    • Demonstrated ability to lead large-scale geotechnical projects and manage teams of geologists and geotechnical engineers.
    Miscellaneous Qualities:
