  • Calibrate and clean field instruments
  • Carefully and precisely record activities, notes, and measurements in the lab and in the field
  • Program, install, and maintain field instruments for water quality and flow monitoring (e.g., Isco automated samplers and YSI flow meters)
  • Transport environmental samples to commercial labs (must have a current driver’s license)
  • Complete miscellaneous tasks to perform quality assurance and quality control for field monitoring activities
  • Manage collected data using spreadsheets (Microsoft Excel)

  • 1+ year of related experience, or bachelor’s degree or coursework towards a degree in environmental science or related discipline
  • Field experience collecting water quality or other environmental data and calibrating equipment is highly desirable
  • Attention to detail and ability to organize and compile observations and data is critical
  • Ability to carry out detailed instructions as well as think creatively to carry out lab and field monitoring assignments
  • Confined space entry safety training and experience
  • Experience working in the right of way and associated traffic safety training
  • Valid driver's license
