Senior Engineer – Hydrogeologist

Job Summary:

We are looking for a Hydrogeological Engineer with a minimum of 4-5 years of experience to support Hydrogeological studies, groundwater control systems design, and groundwater modelling. The candidate will be responsible for analysing hydrogeological parameters, assessing well field tests, permeability test analysis, estimating groundwater rise, developing 3D groundwater flow and transport models, and preparing technical designs and documentation. The role requires expertise in hydrogeological software, GIS applications, and dewatering system design.

Key Responsibilities:

1. Hydrogeological Analysis & Groundwater Assessment

• Conduct hydrogeological analysis and assessment to evaluate groundwater conditions. Estimate groundwater rise and its impact on infrastructure and water resources.
• Analyse hydrogeological investigations, including packer and falling head tests, and assess pumping test data for safe yield estimation and long-term well performance.
• Perform water budget and mass balance assessments to support water resource planning.

• Develop three-dimensional (3D) groundwater flow and transport models using MODFLOW, MT3DMS, GMS, FEFLOW, Groundwater Vistas, and/or other relevant software.
• Has good knowledge of programming languages Python and FlowPy.
• Develop solute transport modelling for groundwater contamination studies.
• Utilize GIS software (e.g., QGIS, ArcMap, ArcScene, ArcPro) for spatial analysis, mapping, and groundwater data visualization.

1. Dewatering & Drainage System Design

• Design and review dewatering systems for construction and infrastructure projects, and produce drawings and calculations for subsurface drainage systems to manage groundwater and seepage.

• Prepare designs, drawings, bills of quantities (BOQs), and tender documents for hydrogeological and groundwater control projects.
• Develop and Review hydrogeological reports, dewatering plans, and groundwater impact assessments.

Qualifications & Skills:

• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Hydrogeology, Civil Engineering - water resources, or a related field.
• Minimum of 4-5 years of experience in hydrogeological engineering, groundwater modelling, or groundwater control system design.
• Proficiency in groundwater modelling software (MODFLOW, MT3D, GMS, FEFLOW, etc.).
• Experience in GIS applications for hydrogeological mapping and analysis.
• Strong knowledge of groundwater control system design and subsurface drainage calculations.
• Ability to analyze well field data and conduct hydrogeological assessments.
• Experience in preparing tender documents, BOQs, and technical reports.
• Strong problem-solving and analytical skills.
• Excellent communication and teamwork abilities.

Preferred Qualifications:

• Experience in large-scale groundwater management projects.
• Knowledge of numerical modelling for groundwater flow and solute transport.
• Familiarity with construction dewatering techniques and hydrogeological site investigations.
