MobilizeGreen seeks a conservation-minded 11 week Civil Engineering NPS Conservation Fellows Intern to provide the NPS Pacific West Region of the National Park Service with architectural and engineering support. As an intern, you will assist NPS Project Managers with infrastructure projects relating to water supply, treatment, and distributions systems, wastewater collection and treatment systems, and roads and trails. Such support will include site visits, including geld assessment and data collection, development of site visit reports, preparation of drawings, specifications and construction costs, as well as drafting support in AutoCAD and Civil 3D. In this role, you will experience being a “full time” engineer in the NPS and be mentored in developing your method of real-world problem solving.

The intern will receive hands-on learning experience, mentorship, and coaching to complete mission-critical work while developing leadership, critical thinking, and strategic communication skills. This is a developmental program.
