Manage surveys and studies (topographic survey, geotechnical investigation, hydrology and flood lines, pile pull-out testing) and turn the results into design parameters. Design or approve the roads, drainage and stormwater, earthworks, platforms, laydowns, cable trenches, equipment foundations, fencing and O&M campus buildings, to South African standards. Set the driven pile design: embedment, tolerances, refusal protocol and corrosion protection. Develop practical measures for wind-blown sand, dust, erosion and excavation stability in non-cohesive sand. Source and approve road and construction materials, including alternative materials, with the testing to support them. Direct the in-house design team and specialist consultants, and review contractor civil design, materials and temporary works. Provide the engineering input to water use, waste, mining, building and transport approvals, and own civil quantities, specifications and technical bid evaluations. Support site teams at engineering hold points and hand over a complete civil as-built record and maintenance requirements for operations. Requirements: BSc (Eng) or BEng in civil engineering, or an equivalent qualification accredited by the Engineering Council of South Africa. Registration as a Professional Engineer (Pr Eng) with the Engineering Council of South Africa, in good standing. At least ten years of post graduate civil engineering experience , with at least three years since Pr Eng registration. A valid South African driver's licence and willingness to travel to site regularly. Civil design and site delivery on utility-scale renewable energy projects, solar PV preferred. Stormwater, drainage and flood hydrology design, and gravel road design with imported layerworks. Geotechnical engineering in sands, including driven pile foundations and pull-out testing. Foundation and structural design for substations, equipment and small buildings. Review of contractor design and temporary works under FIDIC, NEC or GCC conditions. Work on the West Coast or on environmentally constrained sites is a strong advantage. SAICE membership and a postgraduate qualification are welcome.","description_format":"text","description_chars":2441,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":10,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":[],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-11-04T12:03:15Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":46,"band":"ok","label":"Likely open","p_open":1,"p_active":0.51,"p_room":0.9,"age_days":12,"expected_fill_days":32,"reasons":["seen:12","agency","win:mid"],"computed_at":"2026-11-08T05:47:12Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/mh-solutions-civil-engineer","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/mh-solutions-civil-engineer.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-11-08T13:07:46Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":27869,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-11-09T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":4496200},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=4496200"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fmh-solutions-civil-engineer"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fmh-solutions-civil-engineer"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fmh-solutions-civil-engineer"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/mh-solutions-civil-engineer\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fmh-solutions-civil-engineer"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":3742622}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":"mh-solutions.co.za","detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":3742622},"note":"people open to offers who fit this vacancy"}],"note":"The same data through MCP tools: https://alion.io/mcp/open needs no sign-in (compact searches, postings, people); https://alion.io/mcp with an Alion account has everything.
