Keeping Washington Clean and Evergreen

The Department of Ecology is hiring a Senior Stormwater Project Specialist (Environmental Specialist 4) within the Water Quality Program.

Location:

Headquarters Office in Lacey, WA.
Upon hire, you must live within a commutable distance from the duty station.

Schedule:

This position is eligible for telework and flexible schedule options.
You may telework most of your work time with occasional in-person meetings and activities.
Schedules are dependent upon position needs and are subject to change.

Application Timeline:

Apply by June 28, 2026
Applications submitted after the date above may not be reviewed unless additional qualified applicants are needed.

Duties

Do you want to help solve real-world water quality challenges through green infrastructure? Do you have experience with planning, designing, constructing, or maintaining public infrastructure projects? Are you interested in partnering with local governments and Tribes to protect important cultural resources?

Join the Ecology Stormwater Action Team (SWAT). SWAT partners with communities statewide to fund and implement stormwater quality, green infrastructure, and low-impact development projects. With more than 250 active projects across Washington, this team helps local governments navigate funding, project design, construction, and long-term performance to ensure meaningful water quality outcomes.

As a Senior Stormwater Project Specialist, you will build strong working relationships with local stormwater and capital project managers, helping them develop high-quality proposals and avoid common project pitfalls. You will participate in evaluating new project applications, negotiate funding agreements, and provide technical assistance throughout the life of each project—ensuring compliance with state and federal funding requirements.

You will also play an important part in protecting cultural resources. You will represent SWAT on the Ecology Cultural Resources Environmental Workgroup and coordinate Cultural Resource Reviews in partnership with Tribes and the Department of Archaeology and Historic Preservation to ensure state-funded stormwater projects are sited and constructed responsibly.

What you will do:

Coordinate with local government project managers to monitor project progress on Ecology-funded stormwater quality projects. This includes review of quarterly reports, payment requests, and project deliverables and performing site visits.
Solicit and coordinate input from internal project management teams to provide oversight for funded projects. Ensure that funded projects maintain compliance with funding agreement terms, funding program guidelines, agency policy, and state and federal funding program requirements.
Negotiate and write new funding agreements. Incorporate input from project evaluators, Ecology engineers, financial management staff, and other Ecology subject matter experts during the agreement negotiation process and throughout the life of the project.
Evaluate new project applications for feasibility and water quality benefit.
Coordinate with representatives of Ecology’s headquarters and regions, tribal and local governments, resource and regulatory agency staff, Department of Archaeology and Historic Preservation staff, clients and partners to ensure that Ecology and funding recipients comply with federal and state statutes, rules, and policies.
Actively participate in and contribute to the internal Stormwater Action Team (SWAT) efforts to improve and streamline program processes, develop program guidance, fill knowledge gaps, and train new staff.
