AECOM is seeking an Entry-Level Environmental Engineer to join our team in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, and contribute to environmental investigation, remediation, and site redevelopment projects. This position offers an opportunity to apply engineering fundamentals to environmental challenges while learning from experienced engineers, scientists, and geologists in a collaborative consulting environment.
This position is expected to begin ASAP.
In this role, you will support the planning and implementation of environmental field programs, evaluate site investigation data, and assist with the development and implementation of remediation solutions. Field responsibilities may include environmental sampling, groundwater monitoring, remediation system inspections, collection of operating data, and oversight of subcontractors performing drilling, excavation, and other field activities. Office responsibilities will include engineering calculations, data analysis, technical report preparation, and support for remediation design and project documentation.
The ideal candidate is interested in developing practical environmental engineering skills, solving technical problems, and contributing to projects that improve environmental quality and protect human health. Strong communication, organizational, and analytical skills, combined with a commitment to health and safety, will be important to success in this role.
Key Responsibilities
- Assist with environmental site investigations, remediation projects, and environmental engineering studies for public- and private-sector clients.
- Support field programs involving soil, groundwater, surface water, sediment, and soil vapor sampling, groundwater monitoring, and remediation system data collection.
- Assist with evaluating environmental conditions and identifying potential engineering approaches for site investigation, remediation, and environmental management.
- Collect, organize, and analyze field and laboratory data to support environmental assessments, engineering evaluations, and remediation decisions.
- Assist with the preparation of engineering calculations, technical memoranda, investigation reports, remediation work plans, design documents, figures, and other project deliverables.
- Support the evaluation, operation, and monitoring of environmental remediation systems, including documenting system performance and identifying conditions that may require further investigation.
- Assist with field oversight of subcontractors performing drilling, well installation, excavation, sampling, and other intrusive or remediation activities.
- Help evaluate project activities and technical results against applicable environmental regulations, permits, engineering standards, and client requirements.
- Coordinate with engineers, scientists, geologists, laboratories, contractors, and other project team members to support project schedules, budgets, and technical objectives.
- Participate in project health and safety activities, follow site-specific safety plans, and help identify and communicate potential hazards.
- Support project administration, including data management, quality control, records maintenance, and tracking project deliverables.
- Travel to project locations as required, including occasional overnight stays, and perform fieldwork in varying weather conditions and site environments.
