When it comes to environmental consulting, we’re focused on cleaning up our communities today to improve tomorrow. We’re looking for an Entry-level Environmental Engineer to work on complex site characterization and remediation projects for government and private-sector clients.
Based out of our Corvallis or Portland, OR office, you’ll participate in a variety of field and office tasks related to planning and implementing environmental investigation and remediation projects. You’ll learn from other experienced staff who are ready to mentor you, and you’ll pass your knowledge on to others. You’ll gain valuable experience in soil and groundwater sampling as well as drilling and subcontractor oversight, spending about 50-75% of your time in the field. You’ll balance your field work with some time spent in the office evaluating and reviewing data, writing reports and preparing project documents, and coordinating logistics for field activities. You’ll be juggling multiple tasks, so we’ll rely on you to prioritize effectively, keeping the big-picture in mind. Safety will be your priority, as you contribute to "incident free" operations and maintain the highest standards of Health & Safety in everything you do.
Bring your strategic focus and critical thinking skills and continue your environmental career at Jacobs - where we’ll empower you to learn and grow as you deliver environmental projects that make our world better.
At Jacobs, you’ll have the opportunity to help create a more sustainable world by ensuring excellence in environmental compliance, environmental management, and health and safety while working on diverse projects. In this role, you’ll work with experienced engineers and project managers who will help you advance your environmental consulting career at a place like no other - a company that is invested in you and the environment around us.
