Versar Global Solutions seeks a self-motivated Professional (Civil/Environmental Engineer or Geologist/Hydrogeologist) to support our National Remediation Programs (NRP) Group. The selected individual will work on private industry/commercial and federal sector contracts with either the Department of Defense (Air Force, USACE, Army, Navy, National Guard Bureau) or the Environmental Protection Agency. The successful candidate must provide technical leadership, subject matter expertise, and broad-based multidisciplinary oversight to proposal and project teams, conduct internal and external client-facing meetings related to project work, training/mentoring junior staff, and provide creative problem-solving leadership. Must have subject matter expertise in one or more specific areas of remedial action engineering (e.g., site remediation optimization/exit strategy development; vapor intrusion/vapor migration; wood-treating, creosote, or MGP sites; Power Plant decommissioning/demolition/decontamination; and Coal Combustion Residuals) or hydrology/hydrogeology (e.g., aquifer testing and analysis; 3D groundwater flow and solute transport modeling; high-resolution site characterization (HRSC); groundwater hydraulic control, recovery, and treatment; and surface water hydrologic simulation).

This role will prioritize and only pursue those who reside in or near Philadelphia, PA.

Primary duties and day-to-day responsibilities include ANY combination of the following with the opportunity to learn and gain experience with on-the-job training to advance your starting skills:

• Technical leadership for hazardous waste remediation under CERCLA and RCRA programs throughout the project life cycle, focusing on exit strategy and remedy implementation and completion.
• Subject matter expertise (SME) in one or more specific areas of remedial engineering, geology, or chemistry (e.g., site optimization, vapor intrusion/vapor migration, critical process analysis, risk and exposure assessment, HRSC, biological processes, PFAS, system upgrades, and technology advancements, etc.).
• Demonstration of SME for the analysis, design, installation, and operation of treatment strategies for wastes in soil, groundwater, air, sediment, drinking water, and providing engineering and scientific expertise to protect human health and the environment.
• Provide definitive knowledge of site investigation and remediation technology, HRSC technology providers and services, products, vendors, subcontractors, lab scale/bench scale testing firms, and other subcontractors, consultants, and team partners to create robust teams for complex problems.
• Ability to understand and drive Risk Management for remediation strategies, including development of Risk Registers, Risk Monitoring Plans, contingent activities, and Contingency Plans.
• Provide overall site management for both proposed and existing sites, including development of technical remediation approach, cost estimation, schedule development, identification of critical milestones, planning, reporting, and formal project management.
• Provide input and develop written technical reports for delivery to clients, perform quality control reviews, and maintain deliverables of high quality to meet internal and client requirements.
• Independently manage tasks and work with other Project/Program Managers on various environmental projects.
• Provide direction, instruction, training, and leadership to support staff as a mentor for your work/sites.

• Remain highly cognizant of environmental regulations and new requirements in the U.S.
• Interact with clients and regulatory agencies as needed to support site work.

Specialized and highly desirable skills in the following areas will get immediate attention:

• Project/proposal Work Breakdown Structures (WBS), Work Packages, and Project Planning - understanding how to formulate tasks and plan activities to meet a project's objectives.
• Cost Estimating - using WBS and Work Packages (from (1) above) to develop costs for project labor, supplies, materials, equipment, and defining subcontractor requirements. Develop solid technical scopes of work to solicit competitive bids from qualified subcontractors to support the project and meet objectives. Costs may be derived from master databases (RS Means, Craftsman Cost Data, etc.), bids, bottoms-up estimates, vendors/suppliers, or other sources)
• Demonstrated ability to use Microsoft PROJECT (or related) to build a project master schedule by creating relationships to various tasks and work products in the schedule, defining milestones, and allocating costs to those milestones to make a payment schedule.
• Ability to lead or significantly contribute to considerable proposal efforts that require the abovementioned skills.
• Experience working with or for USACE/AFCEC, especially concerning remediation and performance-based contracts.

Job Requirements

• A Bachelor's degree is required. Bachelor's in geology, civil engineering, or environmental engineering is preferred. (M.S. preferred).
• 10 years of demonstrated professional consulting experience as a Technical Professional, or related position in a progressively responsible capacity providing staff management, project management, BD-marketing-proposals, and proven technical excellence.
• Knowledge of environmental regulations is required.
• Professional Engineer (PE) or Professional Geologist (PG) certification is required.
• Project Management Professional (PMP) certification.
