Responsibilities

• Leading and overseeing technical work for the full lifecycle of sediment projects, which may include developing site characterization, remedial investigation (RI), and feasibility study (FS) plans; overseeing multi-media sampling programs (sediment, water, biota, etc.); data interpretation (geostatistics, fingerprinting, etc.); numerical modeling (hydrodynamic, contaminant fate and transport, etc.); developing conceptual site models; evaluating and implementing remedial alternatives (dredging, capping, MNR, etc.); remedial cost estimating; and translating complex scientific findings into high quality technical written/verbal deliverables. Litigation support and expert witness experience is desirable.
• Managing projects through the full project management life cycle, including developing scopes of work, managing budgets, leading and mentoring project teams, coordinating with multi-disciplinary teams of scientist, engineers, regulators, and responsible parties, delivering high quality deliverables on time and on budget, and client management.
• Providing regulatory expertise on contaminated sediment projects (e.g.: CERCLA, RCRA, or local state programs), which may include agency negotiations.
• Leading and participating in marketing and business development activities, which may include tracking and pursuing relevant requests for proposals, developing marketing documents (quals packages, project profiles, web articles, etc.), cultivating and nurturing client and partner relationships, and actively participating at relevant conferences (e.g.: Battelle).

Requirements

• Bachelor of Science degree in Civil or Environmental Engineering, Geology, Environmental Science, or a closely related physical science discipline with 10 or more years of experience.
• Master’s degree or Ph.D. is strongly preferred.
• For engineering applicants, an active Professional Engineer (PE) license is expected; for scientists, a Professional Geologist (PG) or related credentials would be highly valued.
• Specialized training in hydrodynamic modeling or statistical data analysis is a significant advantage.
• 40-hour OSHA HAZWOPER certification with current annual refreshers.
• Must be legally able to work in the U.S. for any employer (proper documentation is required).

Preferred

• Experience or interest in urban waterfront restoration, engineering with nature, or nature-based solutions is a plus.
• Participation in industry organizations and conferences (e.g., Battelle) is encouraged.
