Hydrogeologists/Hydrologists

Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in geology, hydrogeology, hydrology, environmental science, or equivalent technical field.
4+ years of relevant hydrogeology and hydrology experience, including field sampling at Superfund and other types of contaminated sites.
Knowledge of relevant national and regional EPA cleanup programs, guidance, and regulations, including the Comprehensive Environmental Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA), the National Contingency Plan, the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA), the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA), the Clean Water Act, the Safe Drinking Water Act, and related regulations.
Excellent verbal and written communication skills with an ability to accurately and effectively express results of analyses to technical and non-technical audiences, sometimes in stressful and contentious settings.
Team player with demonstrated task and project management skills including the ability to work in a fast-paced environment.
Demonstrated ability to effectively engage with clients.
OSHA 40-Hour HAZWOPER certification.
Ability to obtain authorization for access to Federal facilities.

Participate in planning activities, including meetings, conference calls, and/or site visits to support the development of project objectives, study designs, and schedules.
Prepare project-specific work plans, SAPs and QAPPs in adherence with relevant EPA guidance.
Mobilize for and conduct monitoring well sampling, soil and groundwater sampling, biota sampling (fish and benthic invertebrate), and any other applicable techniques to collect environmental samples used to assess the nature and extent of contaminants in soil and groundwater and support human health and ecological risk assessments.
Collect field observations and field mapping parameters.
Prepare ground water hydrology assessments and review analyses prepared by other parties, including evaluation of groundwater and contaminant transport, application and/or review of models to predict the fate and transport of groundwater contaminants, evaluation of surface water interactions with groundwater and the effects of implementation of clean up technologies on groundwater contamination.
Prepare sampling activity reports for sampling events.
Describe projects and interpret analyses through written and oral communication to a wide audience.
Manage tasks and projects, including working with other managers and a team of technical staff from multiple disciplines to complete field projects, analyses, modeling, and reporting on time and within budget.

Experience with the investigation and remediation of former mining sites and sites with emerging contaminants (e.g., Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances [PFAS]).
Strong analytical skills and ability to interpret and describe hydrogeologic, hydrologic, and contaminant fate and transport data, including experience conducting quantitative analyses using Microsoft Excel; experience with R, Python, AI and data visualization tools a plus.
Team leadership skills: Set high personal performance and quality standards and work in a team environment; view all team members as critical and treat team members with respect and professionalism; ability to collaborate and leverage team member strengths.
Expertise and passion for science, natural resources, and resolving complex problems.
