- Research, troubleshoot, and resolve complex questions involving product functionality, system configuration and setup, bugs, and enhancements, including testing solutions to confirm successful resolution.
- Help users select appropriate geotechnical and numerical modelling techniques and explain results from complex Limit Equilibrium Method and Finite Element Method models.
- Teach users the theoretical background behind the software and calculations so they can understand modelling results and move their projects forward.
- Manage and accurately document client inquiries, keep users informed through resolution, and consistently respond within SLO targets.
- Collaborate with Product Development, QA, and Product Management to relay user feedback, report issues, and contribute to product quality and improvement.
- Identify recurring support needs and create knowledge-transfer content such as white papers, practical examples, demos, Bentley Communities contributions, and on-demand learning content.
- Deliver user education through webinars, web-based training, classroom sessions, workshops, courses, mentoring, and occasional in-person training.
- Support team learning by helping onboard and guide new team members and sharing knowledge with adjacent teams, Application Engineers, and Product Success colleagues.
To be successful in this role, you should have:
- MSc degree in Geotechnical Engineering, or an equivalent level obtained through a combination of education and experience.
- 1-5 years of prior engineering-related experience, plus customer service experience.
- Excellent verbal and written communication skills, with the ability to explain complex technical details; fluent English is required.
- Experience with GeoStudio, including Limit Equilibrium Method and Finite Element groundwater flow analysis.
- Experience with PLAXIS and geotechnical Finite Element Method software,
plus basic knowledge of adjacent Seequent applications such as Leapfrog and OpenGround.
- Ability to find creative solutions to complex technical problems and a strong desire to understand user challenges.
- Proficiency in Bentley and Seequent Support Services tools and procedures, including ServiceNow, Communities, Azure DevOps, and Aha.
- Initiative in identifying recurring issues, proposing improvements, taking ownership of personal development, and staying current with relevant industry trends, best practices, and government regulations.
