Geotechnical & Construction Materials Testing (PE)

Who We Are: At UES, we’re a team of more than 4,000 engineers, scientists, geologists, inspectors, technicians, and drillers united by a shared purpose—to make a meaningful impact in the communities we serve. As a national leader in geotechnical engineering, environmental consulting, and materials testing and inspection, we collaborate on transformative projects across transportation, energy, water, healthcare, and more. Learn more about the benefits of joining Team UES and our core values at careers.teamues.com . Position Overview: Two Specialties. One Opportunity. Make an Impact Across Every Stage of Construction. At UES , we're looking for an experienced Professional Engineer (PE) with a background in both Geotechnical Engineering and Construction Materials Testing (CMT) to support our growing engineering teams. This is a unique opportunity for a well-rounded civil engineer who enjoys variety in their work, from evaluating subsurface conditions and developing foundation recommendations to providing engineering oversight during construction. Rather than focusing exclusively on one discipline, you'll collaborate with both our Geotechnical and CMT departments, helping deliver practical engineering solutions and ensuring projects meet technical, quality, and safety standards. If you enjoy technical problem-solving, project management, and working alongside field and laboratory teams, we'd like to connect. What You'll Do Geotechnical Engineering Plan, coordinate, and oversee geotechnical subsurface investigations, including drilling programs, soil sampling, and field exploration. Evaluate subsurface conditions and laboratory data to develop engineering recommendations for foundations, earthwork, and site development. Perform or review geotechnical engineering analyses, including bearing capacity, settlement, slope stability, and retaining structures. Prepare and review geotechnical reports, engineering calculations, and technical recommendations. Provide technical guidance to geotechnical field personnel, drilling crews, and laboratory technicians. Support clients and project teams with geotechnical engineering solutions throughout design and construction. Construction Materials Testing (CMT) Provide engineering oversight for construction materials testing and inspection projects involving soils, concrete, asphalt, masonry, and reinforcing steel. Review field testing results, laboratory reports, construction plans, and specifications for compliance with project requirements. Evaluate nonconforming test results and construction conditions, providing technical recommendations and corrective solutions. Review and approve engineering reports, technical documentation, and project deliverables. Serve as a technical resource for CMT field technicians, inspectors, and laboratory personnel. Support quality assurance and quality control across construction projects. Project Management & Leadership Manage engineering projects across both Geotechnical and CMT departments, including schedules, budgets, resources, and deliverables. Coordinate with project managers, contractors, clients, and internal technical teams to ensure successful project execution. Build and maintain strong client relationships while identifying opportunities for additional engineering services. Assist with proposals, scope development, cost estimates, and business development efforts. Mentor junior engineers, field technicians, and laboratory professionals. Promote technical excellence, safety, and consistent engineeri Responsibilities: Lead geotechnical investigations, including planning, coordinating, and overseeing field and laboratory work. Independently perform complex engineering analyses, including slope stability, settlement, bearing capacity, and seismic design considerations. Develop detailed geotechnical reports, specifications, and cost estimates with minimal oversight. Oversee foundation design, earth retention, pavement, and ground improvement…
