As an Earthquake Engineer on our team, you’ll play a crucial role in developing and enhancing the damage estimation component of Verisk Earthquake models. These models cover various regions worldwide and address earthquake related hazards of ground shaking, liquefaction, landslides, fire-following, sprinkler leakage, and tsunamis. In this role, you’ll focus on assessing how these hazards affect the built environment and societies through physical damage, downtime, and human casualties. You’ll collaborate closely with a diverse team of structural and geotechnical engineers, seismologists, and other specialists to perform deterministic and probabilistic risk assessment. You’ll also have the opportunity to present and explain your findings to both internal stakeholders and external clients.
The evolving nature of research work at Verisk Extreme Event Solution creates unique and challenging problems that spark innovation and growth for Verisk and create opportunities for its employees. To be successful in this role, you should have a strong technical background in earthquake, structural, geotechnical, or civil engineering. We’re looking for someone who is highly motivated, detail-oriented, an excellent team player, and capable of using problem-solving skills to tackle new areas of modeling as they emerge.
This role is an office-based role in our Boston office, which has a flexible hybrid work model.
