Scientist I - Seasonal

RES is looking for a Scientist I to join our team.

As a Scientist I at RES, you’ll support field data collection, environmental monitoring, and ecological assessments that form the foundation of our restoration and mitigation projects. Working under the direction of experienced scientists and project managers, you’ll contribute to meaningful work in the field—collecting and processing data, supporting reporting efforts, and gaining exposure to environmental regulations, ecosystems, and scientific best practices.

This is an entry-level opportunity ideal for a recent graduate or someone early in their career who is passionate about environmental science, ecology, or natural resources and wants to build a strong foundation for long-term growth. See what projects our scientists work on here.

Why You’ll Love This Job

• You’ll be in the field, not just behind a desk. Whether you’re taking soil samples, surveying stream banks, or recording vegetation data, you’ll see firsthand the ecosystems you’re helping to restore.

• You’ll build real-world scientific skills. From GPS data collection to interpreting maps and recording results, you'll apply and expand your environmental knowledge daily.

• You’ll grow with mentorship. You’ll work side-by-side with senior scientists, field leads, and project managers who are invested in helping you learn and succeed.
