Lead Geotechnical Engineer

Senior Geotechnical Engineer & Team Leader

Are you a seasoned Senior Geotechnical Engineer with 8+ years of consulting experience, a P.E. license, and strong leadership skills? Do you excel in leading teams, mentoring junior engineers, and tackling complex geotechnical challenges? An award winning top-tier multidisciplinary consulting firm is seeking someone like you to lead their dynamic geotechnical team in Morgantown, WV.

This role offers an opportunity to work with an award-winning employee owned (ESOP) organization that has a nearly century-long history of providing innovative solutions across various engineering disciplines. You’ll collaborate with industry professionals, lead geotechnical investigations, and deliver custom solutions for impactful projects, all while guiding and developing a talented team of engineers.

Why This Opportunity Stands Out:

• Leadership Role: As a team lead, you’ll oversee project quality, mentor junior engineers, and contribute to technical proposal preparation while supporting business development initiatives.
• Exciting, Local Projects: Work on diverse and challenging projects, including infrastructure, industrial, commercial, and unique “one-off” initiatives. Most projects are DOT-related (roadway) or involve airport/runway design, typically within a 60-90 mile radius of the office—no frequent or overnight travel required.

Key Responsibilities:

• Lead and mentor a team of engineers and technicians, ensuring high-quality deliverables and team development.
• Conduct geotechnical explorations, site characterizations, slope stability analyses, and subsurface investigations.
• Prepare geotechnical engineering reports, manage project timelines and budgets, and maintain client relationships.
• Oversee quality control standards, review lab testing results, and guide design development for foundations, retaining structures, and slope stability solutions.

This is your chance to take your geotechnical expertise to the next level with an industry leader known for its commitment to innovation, quality, and employee success.
