Job Duties and Responsibilities (Technical):  • Review and become familiar with reference background information such as geotechnical exploration reports, project specifications and civil/structural plans for use during design and preparation of the design drawings and calculations. • Analyze various ground improvement approaches and select the option that meets the project criteria. • Develop cross sections, generate soil profiles, and select soil properties for design. • Perform finite element modeling, as needed, to understand complex soil-structure interactions and estimate deformations and stresses within the soil and ground improvement elements. • Perform all required design calculations and analyses including, but not limited to, global stability, settlement, bearing capacity, and structural and geotechnical capacity of CMCs. • Coordinate or prepare design documents (final design calculations and drawings). • Review all Quality Assurance/Quality Control from the Field Engineer. • Respond quickly to questions from the project team and any conditions that deviate from the design. Knowledge, Skills and Abilities: • Understands basic principles of geotechnical design and can perform basic calculations. • Proficient with slope stability analysis and finite element modeling. • Proficient with MS Word, Excel and Outlook, familiar with AutoCAD. • Understands and adheres to Menard’s safety and quality standards. • Effectively communicates with internal project team members constantly throughout the project. • Strong oral and written communication skills. • Develops ideas and offers alternatives to facilitate solutions. • Able to manage multiple tasks, activities and commitments. Education and Experience Requirements: Master’s or bachelor’s degree in civil engineering with geotechnical design experience or coursework. -OR- any equivalent combination of education and experience which meets the required knowledge, skills and abilities. Certifications, Licenses, Etc: Required: None Desired: E.I.T. [Engineer in Training]
