  • Ensure technical reports and presentations explain research, findings, and recommendations to address, prevent, control, or remediate physical and geographical site issues and complex problems.
  • Provide primary land survey input to planners, scientists, engineers, and construction professionals in the analysis, evaluation, and interpretation of spatial and geographic data obtained during field investigations, offering insight with moderately complex threat mitigation, master planning, construction, and permitting activities.
  • Oversee and monitor cross-functional teams in executing project work, including project budgets, tracking hours and expenses, and task completion.
  • Assist with development and scoping of projects.
  • Coordinate with regulatory agencies, clients, communities, subcontractors, and technical staff in a confident and professional manner.
