- Perform in an advanced technical role conducting strategic subsurface work designed to support geoscientific-subsurface engineering issues facing Alberta, which is guided by the AGS operational plan.

- Provide engineering advice, guidance, and leadership on large multi-disciplinary projects which may span outside of immediate job area to support both short-term and long-term Branch or Division level decision making.

- Accountable for delivering results through publication of technical reports, maps, digital information, and peer-reviewed literature.

- Prepare findings for internal and external audiences including non-AER stakeholders, as well as Teams, Branches, and Divisions within AER.

- Actively manage data acquired or produced during AGS project work.

- Works to ensure data and information is stored and described according to best-practice standards for re-use and is handled and protected after project is complete.

- Provides reservoir engineering support and geological pore space management expertise to other branches in the AER through participation in AER projects or upon request.

- Reservoir simulation and analytical modelling techniques to evaluate subsurface fluid flow, pressure behaviour, injectivity and long-term performance of reservoirs under production, disposal or storage scenarios.

- Mentor engineers in addressing complex, poorly defined reservoir engineering challenges.

Requirements





- Bachelor of Engineering degree along with 10+ years of progressive related experience in reservoir engineering or related oil and gas discipline; equivalent combinations of education and experience may be considered.

- Professional Engineer (P.Eng.) registered with APEGA, or eligible for registration.

- Experience supporting Carbon Capture, Utilization and Storage (CCUS) initiatives, with knowledge of Alberta's subsurface regulatory and technical environment.

- Solid experience in reservoir engineering fundamentals, including reservoir simulation, reserve/resource characterization and application to injection processes, pressure management, and subsurface storage systems (CCUS and disposal).

- Knowledge of geological pore space issues as it relates to subsurface fluid flow (i.e. disposal, brine hosted minerals, and geothermal) in Alberta is an asset.

- Ability to support Measurement, Monitoring and Verification (MMV) plans and evaluating produced fluids or acid gas disposal, including injectivity, compatibility, and pressure transient analysis, would be an asset.

- Familiarity with AI-enabled approaches for analyzing large subsurface datasets, improving data integration, or supporting reservoir characterization and decision-making is an asset.

- Strong analytical, communication, and collaboration skills,



with the ability to navigate complex technical issues and support risk-informed decisions in a dynamic environment.
