Hydrogeologist and Groundwater Modeler

Key Role:

Join industry experts, apply your expertise, and grow in the field of groundwater flow and contaminant transport modeling. Perform as a valuable contributor to innovative solutions for remediating per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) and other groundwater contaminants. Apply expertise in groundwater flow and transport processes to develop and evaluate conceptual site models and numerical models. Develop groundwater flow and contaminant fate and transport models with collaboration of geologists, hydrogeologists, chemists, engineers, and GIS analysts. Review site investigations, site mitigation actions, remedial investigations, feasibility studies, and remediation pilot studies and apply modeling to analyses for developing conclusions on groundwater remediation designs and design optimizations. Support remediation projects by reviewing hydrogeology related project documents, compile, synthesize, and analyze data to develop conceptual site models, prepare reports and technical presentations for clients, regulators, and other stakeholders, and conduct environmental field work, including sampling, lithology logging, groundwater level gauging, and provide oversight of field subcontractors for drilling, well installation, well development operations, aquifer testing, and utility clearance for intrusive operations. Support multiple concurrent projects with respective deadlines and work closely and interact directly with existing clients in preparing or reviewing models, modeling results, reports, and presentations, and with preparing and potentially facilitating technical discussions. Due to the nature of work performed within this facility, U.S. citizenship is required.
