Manage vapor intrusion mitigation systems at residential locations, ensuring compliance with design and regulatory requirements.

Direct general groundwater sampling programs and support RCRA-related activities, including waste characterization and reporting.

Perform miscellaneous maintenance tasks aligned with remediation systems and site infrastructure.

Support waste handling, packaging, and disposal logistics, including compliance with regulatory requirements and disposal site criteria.

Assist in preparing progress reports, regulatory documentation, and closure reports.

Coordinate with regulatory inspectors and client representatives during field activities.

Coordination & Communication

Serve as the primary on-site point of contact between subcontractors, project managers, safety staff, and client representatives.

Participate in project scheduling, constructability reviews, and planning of field mobilizations/demobilizations.

Communicate daily progress, changes, and issues to project management and regulatory partners.
