At RES, we're looking for purpose-driven individuals who are passionate about restoration and sustainability, and who want their work to make a lasting environmental impact. Our team members go above and beyond, bringing initiative, integrity, and a strong work ethic to every project. Collaboration is key-we thrive on teamwork, open communication, and diverse perspectives. In a field that constantly changes, we value those who are resilient, adaptable, and resourceful in the face of challenges. If you're intellectually curious, eager to learn, and ready to help restore ecosystems and protect natural resources, you'll find your place here.
RES is looking for a Scientist II to join our team.
As a Scientist II at RES, you will support the implementation, monitoring, and success of ecological restoration projects across diverse ecosystems.

Once on-site, you may collect data using GPS, YSI meters, or turbidity sensors, following project-specific protocols and QA/QC standards. You'll help guide junior team members, ensure field datasheets are accurate, and troubleshoot equipment as needed.
Back at the office, you'll enter and analyze field data, draft sections of monitoring reports, and interpret site plans or planting palettes. You might meet with design or regulatory teammates to discuss crediting metrics, or help evaluate a site's feasibility based on regulatory or ecological constraints. You'll balance independent work with collaborative efforts to move restoration projects forward.
We would like to talk to you if you have many of the following:
Bachelor's degree in environmental science, biology, geology, or a related natural/physical science field
3+ years of experience in fieldwork, sampling, ecological monitoring, or technical writing (or 2+ years with an advanced degree)

Strong knowledge in one scientific discipline (e.g., hydrology, soils, stream morphology), with working knowledge in others
