GHD is a 10,000+ person engineering and environmental services firm operating across 200+ offices on five continents. The tech stack is heavily weighted toward CAD and simulation tools (AutoCAD, Revit, Civil 3D, PLAXIS, FLAC, PSS/E, PSCAD, Simulink, OpenQuake) reflecting deep domain expertise in infrastructure design and analysis, with recent adoption of DynamoDB and Grasshopper signaling moves toward computational design and cloud data infrastructure. Active hiring spans engineering (majority), construction, and design disciplines, with notable gaps in data and ops teams despite owning complex project pipelines—suggesting infrastructure-scale coordination and data consolidation remain manual or fragmented.
