Geotechnické inženýrství

• Assist in planning and interpreting geological and geotechnical investigations, including borehole logging, rock core assessment, rock mass classification, groundwater evaluation, and identification of geological hazards.
• Assess soil and rock conditions and provide geotechnical input for dam foundations, tunnels, underground caverns, powerhouses, slopes, and excavations.
• Perform geotechnical analyses and support design assessments, including bearing capacity, foundation stability, settlement, slope stability, groundwater, seepage, and ground improvement.
• Support foundation treatment and ground improvement works, including consolidation grouting, curtain grouting, and seepage control measures.
• Provide site support during excavation, tunnelling, and foundation preparation, documenting actual ground conditions and identifying deviations from design assumptions.
• Assist in preparing and reviewing technical reports, including Geological Factual Reports (GFR), Geological Interpretative Reports (GIR), Geotechnical Baseline Reports (GBR), investigation reports, and design documentation.
• Coordinate with senior engineers, geologists, contractors, drilling teams, and investigation consultants to integrate geotechnical information into design and construction activities.
• Identify potential geotechnical hazards, evaluate risks and recommend appropriate mitigation measures under the guidance of senior engineers.
• Prepare technical calculations, drawings, specifications, and engineering documentation in accordance with project requirements and applicable standards.
• Follow project HSE requirements, site safety procedures, and applicable legislation, and participate in risk assessments and construction safety activities.

Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree or master's degree in Geotechnical Engineering, Geotechnology, Engineering Geology, or a related field.
• Approximately 4-6 years of relevant professional experience in geotechnical engineering, preferably in dams, hydropower, underground structures, tunnelling, or major infrastructure projects.
• Candidates with less experience but relevant qualifications and a strong willingness to learn are also encouraged to apply.
• Experience in geotechnical investigations, subsurface data interpretation, soil and rock mass characterization, and selection of geotechnical design parameters.
• Working knowledge of geotechnical analysis and design, including foundation stability, bearing capacity, settlement, slope stability, seepage, and ground improvement.
• Familiarity with construction-stage geotechnical assessment, foundation preparation, excavation support, and identification of ground-related risks.
• Knowledge of relevant geotechnical investigation and design standards. Experience in Southeast Asia or similar geological settings is an advantage.
• Familiarity with geotechnical analysis and modelling software such as PLAXIS, GeoStudio, and Leapfrog, as well as programming, coding, or AI-based tools for engineering analysis and data interpretation, is an advantage.
• Good analytical, problem-solving, report-writing, and communication skills, with the ability to work effectively in multidisciplinary teams.
• Willingness to undertake site visits and project assignments as required, including coordination with construction teams and investigation consultants.
