Full Job Description

CEDARVILLE ENGINEERING GROUP

Environmental Scientist

Get in the Field. Get the Data Right. Support the Mission.

About CEG

Cedarville Engineering Group (CEG) delivers design-build civil infrastructure and environmental remediation projects for federal agencies, including work on active military installations. Our projects directly support national defense, environmental restoration, and resilient infrastructure. We are a 50-person firm with offices in Pottstown, PA and Tampa, FL.

The Role

We are seeking an Environmental Scientist to join our Pottstown, PA office and support a variety of government projects. This is a hands-on, field-and-office role in a lean firm where flexibility matters — one week you are collecting samples in the field, the next you are writing the report that backs them up.

This is field environmental work on real government projects:

Soil and water sampling on government and military project sites
Field data collection that holds up to scrutiny
Report writing and technical documentation
Natural resource and stormwater management project support
Based in Pottstown, PA with approximately 25% travel

What This Role Really Is

You are the person who gets the data right.

You ensure:

Field samples are collected, handled, and documented to protocol
Findings are recorded accurately and reported clearly
Deadlines are met without cutting corners on quality or safety

We are open to a range of experience, and we will invest in you. CEG provides training and supports the certifications you need to do the work — including OSHA certifications if you don't already hold them.

What You'll Do

Field Work & Sampling

Collect soil and water samples on government and military project sites following established protocols and chain-of-custody requirements
Perform field data collection, measurements, and observations, and maintain accurate field notes and logs
Operate and calibrate field sampling and monitoring equipment
Support site investigations, environmental monitoring, and remediation activities

Reporting & Documentation

Write clear, accurate technical reports, field summaries, and supporting documentation
Compile, organize, and quality-check field and laboratory data
Contribute to permit applications, regulatory submittals, and project deliverables

Natural Resource & Stormwater Projects

Support natural resource management projects, including wetlands, habitat, and environmental assessments
Support stormwater management projects and MS4 and related regulatory compliance efforts
Coordinate with project managers, engineers, and interdisciplinary teams to keep work moving

Health & Safety

Follow all site health and safety plans and federal installation requirements
Obtain and maintain OSHA certifications (HAZWOPER, OSHA 10/30/40 as applicable) — CEG will provide training if not already in place
Help keep the field team safe and compliant on every site

What You Bring

Education (Required)

Bachelor's degree in Environmental Science, Biology, Geology, Environmental Studies, or a related field

Experience

Open to a range of experience — recent graduates through experienced scientists are encouraged to apply
Field, sampling, or environmental project experience is helpful but not required; we will train the right person
Comfortable working outdoors and in the field across varying conditions and terrain

Certifications

OSHA certifications (HAZWOPER, OSHA 10/30/40) required for fieldwork — CEG will provide training to obtain them if not already held
Valid driver's license

Preferred

Prior experience on federal or government projects
Experience with soil and water sampling and chain-of-custody procedures
Familiarity with natural resource or stormwater management programs
Strong technical writing skills — turning field data into a clean report is a real plus
Experience with GIS or data management tools

Capabilities

Strong written communication — writing skills are a real differentiator in this role
Flexible and willing to take on a variety of tasks as project needs change
Detail-oriented and disciplined about data quality and documentation
Able to work independently in the field and collaboratively with the team
Willingness to travel (approximately 25%) and to obtain access to secured federal and military installations

What Matters Here – Our Core Values

Responsive – You communicate clearly and act quickly
Driven – You take ownership of outcomes
Problem-Solver – You fix gaps, not just document them
Growth Mindset – You keep learning and take on new skills as the work demands
No Assholes – We hold the line and treat people right

If you want to sit at a desk and never get your boots dirty, this is not the place for you.

If you take pride in getting the data right — in the field and on the page — you'll fit.

Work Environment

Based in the Pottstown, PA office
Field work on government and military project sites
Approximately 25% travel
Work supports projects on secured federal and military installations
Must be able to pass a federal background check
REAL ID required
Able to perform physical fieldwork, including lifting equipment and working outdoors in varying conditions

Why This Role Matters

The data you collect and the reports you write are the foundation of every environmental decision on the project.

Your role ensures:

Our clients and the government can trust the findings we deliver
Projects stay on schedule and on the right side of regulations
The environments we protect and restore — including those on active military installations — are safeguarded for the mission and the future

This is not busywork. This is infrastructure that protects the mission.

CEG serves government and institutional clients through our core competencies of Engineering, Construction, and Environmental Services. We maintain offices in Pottstown, P, Tampa, FL, and Alexandria, VA with projects nationwide. CEG is committed to investing into the professional development of our Team, and in turn we seek employees who will invest in the success of our clients. Our rapid growth and success fuel our need to grow our team. WE LIVE OUR Core Values of RESPONSIVNESS, DRIVEN, GROWTH MINDSET, PROBLEM-SOVER, and we maintain a policy of NO ASSHOLES. Please submit your resume and to begin the journey.
