Jim Sun is a licensed geotechnical engineer with eight years of experience delivering subsurface investigations, laboratory testing, seismic and liquefaction analyses, and foundation design across California, Illinois and international offshore/tunnel projects. He blends hands-on field work—CPT, inclinometer, percolation and compaction testing—with technical design for deep and shallow foundations, ground improvement, and geotechnical instrumentation monitoring. Having supported public hospitals, school districts, commercial and telecommunication developments, Jim is comfortable moving between design, construction inspection, and client-facing project management. His career includes stints at specialty consultancies and now HDR, reflecting a trajectory toward complex, multidisciplinary infrastructure work. Trained at Northwestern (MS) with a bachelor’s in Harbor & River Engineering, he brings coastal and offshore perspective that informs his approach to seismic and seepage challenges. Colleagues rely on him for pragmatic, data-driven solutions that bridge field observations and analytical design.
