Job Description

• Lead comprehensive geotechnical site investigations, including planning, execution, and interpretation of borehole data, in-situ testing, and laboratory test results to assess ground conditions relevant to tunneling projects.
• Develop and review detailed geotechnical design reports for tunnels, shafts, and associated underground structures, ensuring compliance with engineering standards and project specifications.
• Collaborate closely with multidisciplinary teams including civil engineers, structural engineers, and project managers to integrate geotechnical recommendations into overall project designs.
• Evaluate soil-structure interaction and ground behavior under various loading conditions to optimize tunnel alignment, support systems, and excavation methods.
• Implement advanced numerical modeling techniques and software tools to simulate geotechnical scenarios, predicting settlement, ground movement, and potential risk factors.
• Oversee ground improvement and stabilization strategies such as grouting, dewatering, and ground freezing to mitigate risks during tunnel construction.
• Ensure strict adherence to health, safety, and environmental policies in all geotechnical operations, promoting a safety-first culture throughout project life cycle.
• Conduct regular site inspections and provide technical support during construction to resolve unforeseen geotechnical challenges efficiently and innovatively.
• Mentor and develop junior geotechnical engineers and technicians, fostering knowledge sharing and skill enhancement to build a robust technical team.
• Maintain continuous communication with clients, regulatory bodies, and stakeholders to deliver transparent project updates and technical clarifications.
• Drive innovation by researching and adopting emerging technologies and methodologies in geotechnical engineering applicable to tunneling projects.
• Contribute to cost optimization by identifying effective ground investigation techniques and recommending sustainable design alternatives without compromising safety or quality.
• Prepare and present detailed technical documentation, including risk assessments, progress reports, and compliance certifications, ensuring alignment with Adani's standards of excellence and integrity.

Education Qualification

• Bachelor’s Degree in Civil Engineering or Geological Engineering; Master’s Degree in Geotechnical Engineering or related field preferred.

Certification Required

• Certified Geotechnical Engineer (as recognized by relevant professional bodies)
• Safety training certifications relevant to tunneling and underground construction
• Project Management certification (PMP or equivalent) is a plus

Experience10-15 years of experience in geotechnical engineering specifically within the tunneling industry, demonstrating progressive responsibility and expertise in managing complex projects.
