About this role
Langan is looking for an experienced geotechnical engineer to lead projects and mentor staff in their Jacksonville office. You would manage the full scope of geotechnical work—from site investigations and boring logs through design of foundations, retaining walls, and excavation support systems, to construction observation and technical reporting.

You should be comfortable with industry software such as PLAXIS, Slide/SLOPE/W, and gINT, and ready to split time between the office and job sites.

Langan offers comprehensive benefits including medical, dental, and vision coverage; 401(k) matching; paid time off with parental and military leave options; professional development reimbursement; and flexible scheduling. The firm is consistently ranked among the top firms to work for and emphasizes career growth, training, and an inclusive workplace culture.
