About The Project
Trillium Rail Partners (TRP) is a consortium of Amico Major Projects, Alberici Constructors, and Acciona Infrastructure Canada, working closely with Metrolinx to deliver the Stations, Rail, and Systems (SRS) package for the Eglinton Crosstown West Extension (ECWE), a transformative 9.2 km expansion of Toronto’s light rail network.
The ECWE will bring the Eglinton Crosstown LRT another 9.2 kilometres farther west, creating a continuous rapid transit line from the east end of Toronto into Mississauga. The Stations, Rail, and Systems (SRS) package encompasses the design, construction, integration, and commissioning of key project components.
Position OverviewTRP has a current vacancy for a Geotechnical Instrumentation & Monitoring Technical Lead that will support the technical and construction delivery of geotechnical instrumentation and monitoring activities across the ECWE SRS project.
Reporting to the Technical Design Manager, the Geotechnical Instrumentation & Monitoring (I&M;) Technical Lead will be responsible for the technical oversight, planning, coordination, and management of all geotechnical instrumentation and monitoring activities associated with underground construction works, deep excavations, retaining structures, tunnels, shafts, portals, stations, guideways, and other project infrastructure.
The position will serve as the subject matter expert for geotechnical instrumentation and monitoring and construction impact assessment,



ensuring instrumentation and monitoring programs are planned, implemented, interpreted, and managed in accordance with project requirements, applicable standards, and contractual obligations.
The successful candidate will have practical experience in Geotechnical Instrumentation and Monitoring, geotechnical engineering within major civil infrastructure, transportation, transit, tunnelling, excavation, foundation, or construction projects. The role requires close collaboration with design teams, construction teams, third-party stakeholders, consultants, contractors, and project management teams to identify, assess, and mitigate geotechnical and construction risks throughout the project lifecycle.
Lead the planning, development, procurement, implementation, and management of all geotechnical instrumentation and monitoring (I&M;) programs across stations, tunnels, shafts, caverns, portals, tail tracks, retaining structures, foundations, guideways, utilities, and other project infrastructure.
Serve as the technical authority for instrumentation and monitoring activities, ensuring compliance with project requirements, industry standards, contractual obligations, and best practices.
Review and coordinate Geotechnical Instrumentation and Monitoring Plans (GIMPs), Construction Impact Assessment Reports (CIARs), Geotechnical Design Reports (GDRs), Hydrogeological Reports, Impact Mitigation Plans (IMPs), SOE and SEM reports/designs,



temporary works designs, and other technical submissions to ensure monitoring requirements are adequately incorporated.
Establish monitoring strategies, instrumentation requirements, trigger levels, action response plans, alarm thresholds, monitoring frequencies, and escalation procedures based on project risks and design assumptions.
Ensure instrumentation and monitoring requirements are effectively integrated into multidisciplinary designs and construction activities, including excavation support systems, tunnels, stations, shafts, caverns, foundations, utilities, groundwater control systems, and temporary works.
Lead the review, acceptance, and technical oversight of instrumentation layouts, installation methodologies, monitoring specifications, contractor submissions, and monitoring-related technical deliverables.
Oversee the installation, commissioning, operation, maintenance, verification, troubleshooting, and decommissioning of all monitoring systems and instrumentation.
Direct and coordinate monitoring programs involving settlement monitoring, ground movement monitoring, inclinometers, piezometers, MPBXs, vibration monitoring, structural monitoring, groundwater monitoring systems, automated total stations, prism monitoring systems, and other automated monitoring technologies.
Review, interpret, and evaluate monitoring data to assess ground behavior, excavation performance, structural response, groundwater conditions, construction impacts, and overall geotechnical performance.
Identify trends, anomalies, instrument issues, and potential geotechnical risks, and lead investigations of trigger-level exceedances, unexpected movements, excessive settlement, deformation, groundwater impacts, and o
