There are 36 open geotechnical engineer jobs on the board right now, from 6 employers in 16 states. Of these, 7 are entry-level, 17 require a PE license and 7 ask for an EIT.
Geotechnical engineers characterize the ground that every structure, roadway and embankment rests on. Typical work includes planning subsurface investigations, logging borings, interpreting laboratory test results, analyzing foundations, slopes and retaining structures, and writing the geotechnical reports that designers and contractors rely on. Many firms also provide construction-phase services, so field observation and materials testing are a regular part of early-career roles.
Entry-level and staff engineers usually split time between the field, the lab and the office while building experience under a licensed engineer. Project engineers and project managers take responsibility for investigation scopes, analyses, client communication and budgets, and senior roles frequently require a PE license. Openings for drillers, field technicians and interns also appear here when employers list them with their geotechnical teams. Each job card below shows the license requirement the employer lists.
