  • 5 to 8 years of geotechnical engineering experience.
  • Registered Professional Engineer ( P.Eng. ) with Engineers and Geoscientists BC
  • Strong technical knowledge in geotechnical analysis and design (seismic, soil and slope stability, foundations, retaining walls, shoring, dikes and pavements).
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to build strong relationships with colleagues, clients, and partners.
  • Proven organizational and time‑management abilities in a fast‑paced consulting environment.
  • At least 2 years of local experience in residential, commercial, municipal, or industrial sectors.
  • Class 5 (or equivalent) driver’s licence and regular access to a reliable vehicle (vehicle and mileage allowance provided).
  • Willingness to undertake a mix of field and office work and work extended / irregular hours as necessary.
  • Proficiency with productivity software and geotechnical engineering software (e.g., Microsoft Office, AutoCAD, gINT, RocScience, Shake2000, Plaxis, etc.).
  • A positive, confident, and collaborative mindset with a dedication to learning and professional growth.
  • Must be legally entitled to work in Canada.
  • Why Join Kontur?

    At Kontur, you will not get lost in a large corporate structure—your work will be noticed, valued, and supported. We pride ourselves on a culture of collaboration, camaraderie, and shared success. As a smaller consulting firm, we offer :

  • Opportunities to directly shape projects and client relationships
  • Meaningful mentorship and leadership development
  • A diverse portfolio of work throughout the Fraser Valley and across the province
