Design Engineer

Role & responsibilities

• Design and analysis of soil/rock slopes and support systems.
• Conduct comprehensive geological assessments of project sites to identify potential hazards, geological formations, soil and rock types, and groundwater conditions that could impact engineering projects.
• Interpretation of geological, geotechnical, and geophysical investigation data and use of appropriate geotechnical/geological design parameters.
• Expertise in deriving the Geotechnical/geological properties of the soil/rock by analysing geological, geotechnical investigation data and laboratory testing data, necessary for the slope stability analysis.
• Rock mass classification (RMR, SMR etc.) based on the field and laboratory data.
• Interpretation of geological mapping data and identification of possible failure mechanism in rock slopes.
• Performing structural stability analysis for the identified failures in rock slopes.
• Provide design inputs to CAD and co-ordinate with CAD staff for preparation of

geological maps and cross-sections to illustrate subsurface features, geological structures, and stratigraphy.

• Provide on-site supervision and support during construction activities to address unforeseen geological challenges and monitor ground conditions.

Short term travel to various locations in India and other countries for site inspection and training related activities.

Preferred candidate profile

• Working in design of geotechnical and geological projects would be preferred.
• Proficiency in geological mapping and field investigation techniques.
• Experience in Himalayan regions will be an added advantage.
• Exposure to Rock Mechanics will be an added advantage (structural stability analysis)
• Working knowledge of softwares like Slope/W, Slide, Dips, RocPlane, SWedge, RocTopple etc.
• The candidate shall have excellent verbal and written communication skills combined with a positive attitude and ability to work both independently and within groups.
• Aware of best engineering practices, value engineering, civil designs with respect to buildability, ability to solve site related design issues.
• Flexible to adopt new work/challenges as per business requirement.
• Interest in gaining experience and skill in both technical and commercial areas.
