Job description

Job Description

The Environmental Technician reports to the Staff Environmental Engineer, Energy CA & TX, and is the on-the-ground support for Environmental Engineer. This role executes field and operations work across hazardous waste and other environmental programs — including stormwater, SPCC, wastewater, air/PBR field data, and secondary containment — so the Environmental Engineer can stay focused on permits, determinations, and technical program content. This is not a hazwaste-only seat. The Technician inspects, collects, samples, records, and coaches the floor; the Engineer owns regulatory filings and technical adequacy.
