Role purpose

Lead integrated project-risk screening and translate environmental, social, climate, geophysical, safety, infrastructure, and resilience findings into defensible ratings, mitigations, TOR requirements, decision conditions, and monitoring plans.

Representative problems this role must solve

• A project is technically promising but climate, seismic, landslide, flood, water, biodiversity, community, resettlement, Indigenous Peoples, hazardous-material, tailings, process-safety, or infrastructure risks are incompletely understood.
• Risk evidence is fragmented across specialists and does not support an integrated Low/Moderate/High determination or actionable TOR.
• Optimistic sponsor claims obscure missing baseline studies, permit pathways, mitigation costs, schedule impacts, or residual risk.

Responsibilities

• Design and execute proportionate risk screening, evidence grading, data-gap analysis, site/stakeholder inquiry, and integrated risk classification.
• Assess environmental/social safeguards, climate hazards, geophysical/site conditions, process/hazardous-material risks, infrastructure dependencies, cumulative impacts, permitting, mitigation, and resilience.
• Trace findings into project conditions, alternatives, TOR studies/tasks, design criteria, budget/schedule inputs, monitoring, and acceptance requirements.
• Integrate with technical, financial, legal/regulatory, country, sponsor, and implementation modules.
• Provide or coordinate independent review and document dissent or residual uncertainty.

Minimum evidence-based qualifications

• Senior environmental/social, climate/resilience, geotechnical/geophysical, process-safety, infrastructure-risk, safeguards, or permitting experience with evidence of integrated decision responsibility.
• Emerging-market infrastructure, energy, mining/minerals, processing, or industrial-project experience.
• Experience developing or reviewing ESIA/PESIA scopes, risk screens, mitigation plans, lender requirements, or project conditions.
• Ability to coordinate specialists without overstating disciplines outside personal expertise.
• U.S. citizen or lawful permanent resident, with written attestation required before proposal inclusion.
• Demonstrated senior/expert judgment supported by specific project, analysis, decision-product, or implementation evidence—not keyword familiarity alone.
• Ability to produce concise, defensible written analysis in English and work across technical, commercial, financial, safeguards, institutional, and implementation interfaces.
• Ability to become available for potential Indo-Pacific travel within 20 calendar days after Axyde's written mobilization notice following contract award, subject to assignment needs and Government direction.
• Willingness to disclose availability, employment/contract restrictions, confidentiality obligations, conflicts, noncompetes, country/customer limitations, and relevant intellectual-property constraints.

Evidence to submit

• Current résumé or CV with dates, employer/client, country, project stage, personal role, methods used, decision product, and outcome for the most relevant assignments.
• Two to four representative projects demonstrating the required expert judgment and decision-grade products.
• Countries/regions worked, languages used professionally, travel limitations, and current location.
• Licenses, registrations, clearances, certifications, publications, or standards experience when relevant to the role.
• Written permission for Axyde to use and evidence-preservingly reformat the résumé for solicitation 1131PL26R0056, subject to final résumé review if requested.

Application questions

• Are you a U.S. citizen or lawful permanent resident? State one; do not upload identity documents at the application stage.
• May Axyde use your name and evidence-preservingly tailor/reformat your résumé for this specific contingent proposal?
• Could you become available for required Indo-Pacific travel within 20 calendar days after Axyde's written mobilization notice following contract award? Identify restrictions.
• Identify current employment, contractual, confidentiality, noncompete, customer, country, or conflict restrictions relevant to this opportunity.
• Describe the strongest decision product you personally led or independently reviewed and the decision it supported.
• Describe a project where a safeguards, climate, geophysical, process-safety, or infrastructure risk materially changed scope, design, schedule, cost, or recommendation.
• Which risk disciplines can you personally lead, contribute to, or independently review?
• Provide an example of translating a risk finding into a TOR task, design requirement, mitigation, monitoring measure, or decision condition.
