  • Conduct macroinvertebrate and water quality sampling following EPA and USACE guidance for project monitoring and baseline documentation.
  • Produce maps to support field efforts and restoration design.
  • Analyze data using Stream Quantification Tool or other functional assessments to support design and project permitting.
  • Prepare report elements to support permitting and documentation for regulators and project partners.
  • Provide construction oversight, utilizing effective communication and decision-making with contractors and clients during project construction to ensure successful project implementation.

Qualifications
  • BS in ecology, geology, environmental science or related field.
  • A minimum of 3 years of work experience working on river, stream, or other water resources related projects.
  • Demonstrated expertise conducting geomorphic analysis, interpreting results, and applying findings to design and restoration projects.
  • Ability to work outdoors in adverse conditions across a variety of terrains and travel for projects up to 7 days at a time.
  • Hands-on experience with various field data collection techniques, such as site assessments, pebble counts, channel morphology measurements, and vegetation mapping. Proficiency using equipment like total stations and RTK devices for accurate topographic surveys.
  • Competence with technical writing and technical communication.
  • Non-field work is typically performed from the employee's home. Therefore, in addition to being able to perform the duties outlined above, the successful candidate will be flexible in the timing and methods of work and assignments, independent, a self-starter, and a problem solver.
  • Ability to work independently and remotely with minimal supervision.

Preferred Qualifications
