Project Engineer - Ecological Restoration

Where would you step in?  
As a valuable member of our inclusive One Water team, you will support our clients throughout the northeast while sitting in our Sandwich, MA, Westfield, MA, Worcester, MA, Westwood, MA, or Portsmouth, NH offices.

We offer a hybrid remote work environment and flexible Fridays in the summer. 

Our Ecological Restoration Team and Projects 
Our staff are passionate about designing and advancing habitat restoration and community resilience projects throughout the northeast, with a focus on projects in our “neighborhood.” We deliver innovative, cost-effective solutions from concept to construction.

Our interdisciplinary project teams strive to increase resiliency and stream ecological function by working on the design of river restoration, dam removal, dam repair, freshwater and coastal wetland restoration, fish passage, culvert replacement, and floodplain reconnection projects. 

What will you be doing?  
As a Project Engineer, you will participate in site planning, design, permitting, and construction phase services for restoration projects, perform field work which could include (following appropriate training) collecting field measurements, sediment probing or sampling, flow data collection, geotechnical boring observation, and dam inspection.

There may be the need to assist with dam repair and dredging projects.

Project Engineers will need either a PE license or the ability to obtain one in the next 6 months.  The ideal candidate has at least three years of experience working on the design of ecological restoration projects.

However, you may have expertise in more specific related areas, such as hydrology and hydraulics, geotechnical engineering, civil engineering design, wetland science, or fluvial geomorphology, but as long as you have the enthusiasm and the motivation to learn, you will be considered.

You will have experience using AutoCAD and may have experience using modeling software such as HEC-HMS, HEC-RAS, PeakFQ, and HydroCAD, as well as experience with GIS.
