Join our site solutions team as our new Senior Lead Consultant, Impact Assessment and work with us to close the gap to a sustainable future. Your new role We are seeking an experienced engineer to lead Blast Risk Desktop Reviews and, as needed, Blast Risk Modeling, for complex industrial and energy infrastructure projects.

The engineer must be appropriately licensed and credentialed in one or more states. Candidate will need to be a U.S. Citizen. Your key responsibilities will be: Lead the desktop review for blast and fire hazards using authoritative sources, existing reports, and geospatial datasets to assess blast risks within the site boundary and surrounding properties. Identify and map all properties or infrastructure that could present a blast hazard affecting the subject site. Examples include natural gas and oil transmission pipelines, fuel depots and tank farms, petrochemical facilities, and oil refineries. Work with a project-specific GIS team to provide mapping for the project. Determine proximity to conventional and nuclear power stations and outline potential emergency exclusion zones or necessary setbacks that could affect operations or access. Quantify risk by calculating impact radii and return periods for potential blast events or pipeline ruptures, and by evaluating site vulnerabilities, secondary hazards, likelihood, and consequences of various blast events. Perform blast risk modeling as needed and develop mitigation recommendations and describe residual consequences with mitigations in place. Qualifications About You Professional Engineer in an engineering discipline, with experience performing blast and/or process safety assessments for energy or industrial facilities. Working knowledge of quantitative risk assessment methods and risk matrices for explosion and fire scenarios. Preferred skills Theoretical and practical knowledge of explosion and combustion mechanics and impact assessment, and ability to calculate frequency-consequence calculations, ignition-probability correlations, and return periods for various hazards. Demonstrated ability to source and interpret geospatial and regulatory datasets for pipelines, petrochemical operations and heavy industry, and knowledge of GIS and CAD workflows for hazard mapping and presentation quality figures. Experience with hazard identification and consequence modeling tools and methods used in blast and fire engineering. Excellent technical writing and stakeholder communication skills with the ability to translate complex analysis into practical mitigation plans. Work seamlessly with multidisciplinary technical teams and agencies throughout due diligence and permitting, and mentor junior staff.
