Auto-ApplyScientist II (Ecologist)
Research scientist job in Orlando, FL
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. This is a mid-level field and data-focused role that combines fieldwork, technical reporting, and cross-functional coordination to support permitting and compliance documentation. You will collect and manage data, contribute to project reporting, and bring applied knowledge of restoration science to project execution.
Watch the projects our scientists work on here.
Why You'll Love This Job:
You'll get your boots dirty-literally. You'll spend meaningful time in the field, collecting the data that drives real-world ecological restoration.
You'll see the impact of your work. Your efforts support the restoration of wetlands, streams, and habitats that improve ecosystems and communities across the region.
You'll learn from the best. With the support of senior scientists and cross-functional project teams, you'll continue to grow your expertise in restoration science and applied ecology.
What your day-to-day might look like:
You'll begin your day prepping field gear for a monitoring visit to a stream or wetland mitigation site. 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)
Proficient in field sampling protocols, GPS/GIS tools, and equipment use
Experienced in collecting field data independently and following SOPs
Skilled in data analysis and technical report writing
Strong knowledge in one scientific discipline (e.g., hydrology, soils, stream morphology), with working knowledge in others
Comfortable evaluating site conditions and regulatory constraints
Familiar with project task tracking and regulatory requirements
Able to perform functional assessments and related calculations with minimal supervision\
What will make you stand out:
ArcGIS experience or certification
Drone pilot certification
Authorized Gopher Tortoise Agent
Experience with functional assessment methodologies (e.g., HGM, BEHI, UMAM)
Mine Safety and Health Administration Certification (MSHA)
Professional certifications such as PWS, or Wetland Delineation.
Experience using and maintaining field equipment (e.g., YSI multimeters, turbidimeters)
You Will Thrive in This Role If You:
Are comfortable in the field and in the office-and enjoy a balance of both
Can collect, organize, and interpret scientific data with care and accuracy
Communicate effectively and take ownership of your tasks
Can help guide junior field staff and contribute to team learning

About Hesperos
Founded in 2015, Hesperos, Inc was established by Drs. Shuler and Hickman with the goal of accelerating drug discovery by leveraging their Human-on-a-Chip. Shuler and Hickman have been at the forefront of every major scientific discovery in this realm, from individual organ-on-a-chip constructs to fully functional, interconnected multi-organ systems establishing the first "human-on-a-chip."
Today, we bring together biologists, surface chemists, and engineers, to produce some of the world's most advanced organs-on-a-chip platforms.
As a company, this is done by offering development of custom models with up to 5-organ or tissue types. From gene expression to electrophysiology, we recreate key components of organs in a fully interconnected, functional system. Chemically patterned microchips enable real-time, non-invasive monitoring of organ activity to detect minute changes to function over time.
With these models, we're able to provide pre-clinical insight into the efficacy and off-target toxicity of single and multi-drug treatments.
