Original job description

Your Opportunity

Stantec is seeking a Senior Geotechnical Engineer to join our Energy and Resources business group within Western Canada.

Lead the preparation of technical design documents.
Lead the development of technical drawings, figures and models.
Lead the preparation of project technical proposals.
