Participate in permafrost characterization studies and monitoring programs.
Assist in evaluating frost heave, thaw settlement, and other permafrost-related geohazards.

Work collaboratively with multidisciplinary teams across Canada.
Adhere to corporate health, safety, and quality requirements.

Preferred Qualifications:

Master's degree in Geotechnical Engineering or Geological Engineering.
Experience working in northern Canada, including the Northwest Territories, Nunavut, Yukon, or northern provinces.
Familiarity with permafrost terrain assessment, frozen ground characterization, and thermal monitoring programs.
Knowledge of frost heave, thaw settlement, thermokarst development, and climate change impacts on infrastructure.
Experience with geotechnical software such as GeoStudio, SLOPE/W, Seep/W, Settle3, LPile, or equivalent.
Experience supporting mining, transportation, water, or community infrastructure projects.
Understanding of northern construction practices and remote logistics.
