Strategic Account Manager - Geotech Construction

GeoStabilization International (GSI), Access Limited, and RoadGuard together form a leading infrastructure solutions platform dedicated to protecting people and strengthening critical infrastructure across North America and New Zealand. GSI is the premier geohazard mitigation firm specializing in emergency slope stabilization, landslide repair, grouting, and micropiles through innovative design-build delivery. Access Limited brings over a century of steep-slope expertise and operates North America’s largest fleet of spider excavators, delivering complex rockfall and geotechnical solutions in the most challenging environments.

RoadGuard, founded in 2024, unites industry-leading roadway safety companies providing guardrail, bridge railing, highway signage, fencing, and specialty fabrication services. Across all our businesses, we are driven by innovation, extreme ownership, technical excellence, and a relentless commitment to measurable results that improve safety and infrastructure resilience. NOTE - this is a remote opportunity for candidates in Minnesota, Wisconsin, Illinois or Indiana Role Overview The Pursuit Engineer is a hybrid technical-commercial role designed for high-potential engineers who want to translate engineering judgment into revenue, strategy, and client trust.

This role sits at the intersection of solution design, estimating, and business development, supporting strategic pursuits while building the skills required to grow into a Project Development Engineer, Regional Director, or senior commercial leader. This is not a proposal support role. It is an ownership role.

Success is measured by win quality, risk-adjusted margins, solution creativity, and client confidence, not activity volume. Approximately 75% of time is spent on engineering and pursuit execution; 25% on commercial strategy, client engagement, and funnel discipline. Why GeoStabilization International?

GeoStabilization International (GSI) is the market leader in geohazard mitigation, protecting people and critical infrastructure from landslides, rockfall, and ground instability. We operate where failure is not an option - emergency slope failures, constrained right-of-way construction, and technically complex geotechnical challenges. This is not a commodity engineering environment.

We design and build bespoke solutions under real-world constraints, often in extreme terrain, accelerated schedules, and high-risk conditions. Outcomes matter here. We are deliberately building a bench of engineers who can scale - technically, operationally, and eventually as Project Managers, Technical Directors, and Regional Leaders.
