Job Summary
The Biologist I is an entry-level scientific position responsible for assisting in biological research, data collection, environmental monitoring, and supporting conservation or natural resource programs across the state.
Primary Responsibilities
Assist in conducting biological field surveys for wildlife, aquatic life, plant species, and/or habitats. Collect samples and observational data using standard scientific methods and tools (e.g., GPS, sampling nets, binoculars). Perform routine environmental measurements and inspections under the guidance of senior staff. Accurately record, enter, and maintain data collected in the field. Assist in preparing reports, charts, and documentation used for internal analysis, public reporting, or compliance purposes. Support conservation, habitat restoration, wildlife management, or environmental protection programs through logistical assistance and data processing. Maintain equipment, organize supplies, and ensure field tools are properly stored and calibrated. Participate in activities that help ensure agency compliance with environmental regulations and permits (e.g., wetland delineation support, threatened species monitoring). Conduct preliminary reviews or assessments under the supervision of a higher-level biologist.
Knowledge and Skills
Detail-oriented in data gathering, field observations, and documentation. Reliable in completing tasks on time and following protocols with minimal supervision. Able to clearly report findings both orally and in writing to colleagues and supervisors. Works well in field teams or interdisciplinary groups in both structured and remote settings.
