Job Title: Senior Geotechnical Engineer-Offshore

Experience: 5 to 8 years

Reports to : Engineering Manager

Job Summary: An Offshore Geotechnical Engineer is responsible for assessing seabed conditions to support the design, installation, and maintenance of offshore structures such as platforms, wind turbines, pipelines, and subsea foundations. This role involves conducting geotechnical site investigations, analyzing soil and seabed properties, and providing recommendations for foundation and anchoring solutions in offshore settings.

Job Description:

Key Responsibilities:

Site Investigation and Analysis
Plan and execute offshore geotechnical site investigations, including sampling, in-situ testing (e.g., cone penetration tests), and geophysical surveys.
Analyze seabed and sub-seabed conditions to assess soil strength, stability, and other geotechnical parameters.
Interpret and process data from offshore drilling rigs, vessels, and testing equipment.

Design and Engineering
Perform geotechnical analyses, such as pile drivability, leg penetration (LPA), offshore pile capacities(driven and drilled & grouted), scouring, PSI, slope stability, pipe soil interaction and bearing capacity assessments.




Develop solutions for soil improvement and seabed preparation in challenging conditions.
Design foundations and anchoring systems for offshore platforms, wind turbines, pipelines, and other structures

Technical Reporting
Prepare detailed geotechnical reports, including site investigation results, engineering analyses, and design recommendations.
Provide input to risk assessments, feasibility studies, and project planning documents.

Education:
Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Geotechnical Engineering

Experience:
Hands-on experience with offshore site investigations, foundation design, and subsea engineering.
Experience in pile driveability is mandatory requirement.

Technical Skills:
Proficiency in geotechnical software (e.g., PLAXIS, GRLWEAP, OPile and LPile).
Familiarity with offshore geotechnical equipment and testing methods, such as CPT and vibrocores.
Knowledge of design standards for offshore structures (e.g., API, DNV, or ISO codes).

Soft Skills:
Robust problem-solving and analytical skills.
Effective communication and report-writing abilities.
Team-oriented mindset with the ability to collaborate across disciplines.

Certifications (Preferred):
Offshore survival training and certifications (e.g., BOSIET or HUET).
