  • Maintain accurate field boring logs and project documentation.
  • Observe and document drilling operations and sampling procedures.

  • Walking on uneven terrain and active construction sites.
  • Working on and around heavy equipment, including geotechnical drill rigs.
  • Lifting, carrying, and moving field equipment and materials up to 50 lbs.
  • Standing, walking, climbing, bending, and kneeling for extended periods.

Qualifications

Preferred

  • Bachelor's degree in Geology, Engineering Geology, Environmental Science, or a related field.
  • Experience logging soil borings and rock core.
  • Experience working around geotechnical drill rigs.
  • Knowledge of soil and rock classification systems.

Required

  • Valid driver's license with a clean driving record.
  • Ability to drive a pickup truck and tow a utility trailer.
  • Ability to travel extensively and work extended hours. (Staying out of town required)
  • Ability to pass pre-employment and client-required drug screening and background checks.
  • Strong attention to detail and ability to maintain accurate field records.

Compensation & Benefits

  • Competitive hourly pay based on experience.
  • Overtime paid for all hours worked above 40 per week.
  • Company-paid travel expenses and per diem (if applicable).
  • Health, dental, and vision insurance.
  • Paid time off and holidays.
  • Opportunities for advancement and professional development.

Who Succeeds in This Role?

  • Prefers working outdoors over sitting behind a desk.
  • Enjoys travel and seeing new project locations.
  • Comfortable working long days when projects require it.
  • Takes pride in accurate field observations and documentation.
  • Works safely and effectively around heavy equipment.
