Civil engineer focused on highway geometric design and geotechnics, ready for impactful collaborations.
NigeriaWhat I'm looking for
I’m a Civil Engineer specialising in geometric road design and infrastructure construction, based in Abuja, Nigeria. I work with AutoCAD Civil 3D and Autodesk Infraworks, and I’ve supported road infrastructure design across multiple Nigerian states—moving from theory to practical delivery with guidance from senior engineers.
I don’t just produce drawings: I understand the ground beneath them, the forces acting on them, and the communities that will depend on them. I support highway design with Plan, Profile, and Cross-Section drawings, help compute Cut-and-Fill earthworks for cost-efficient grading, and contribute to geotechnical and structural integrity work through SPT, trial pits, soil bearing capacity and settlement analysis, NDT using rebound hammers, and technical reporting.
Experience
Work history, roles, and key accomplishments
Worked under the direct mentorship of senior engineers to bridge the gap between academic theory and practical highway design. Gained hands-on proficiency in AutoCAD Civil 3D and infrastructure planning while providing critical drafting and calculation support for major federal and state projects.
Design Support: Assisted the lead engineering team in drafting geometric road designs, including hori
Conducted geotechnical field operations and structural assessments. Transitioned from support tasks to active collaboration with site teams, performing the complex data analysis required to determine soil bearing capacities and structural health for client projects.
Site Investigation & Execution: Collaborated with site teams to execute deep soil investigations, including Standard Penetration Test
Gained foundational geotechnical experience supporting senior engineering teams through rigorous material testing and site investigations. Responsible for generating the precise soil data used to inform road subgrade designs and foundation recommendations.
Major Duties & Key Responsibilities
Mechanical Strength Testing: Executed critical mechanical strength tests, including California Bearing Rati
