When it comes to environmental consulting, we’re focused on cleaning up our communities today to improve tomorrow. We’re looking for an emerging hydrogeologist to work on complex site characterization and remediation projects for government and private-sector clients.

Based in Seattle, you’ll participate in a variety of field and office tasks related to planning, evaluating and implementing environmental investigations and remediation projects.
