Entry-level Civil or Environmental Engineer

What we are looking for

Are you looking for a career that will make an impact globally and within your local community? SCS is on the forefront of developing sustainable environmental protection practices by working with industry and regulatory agencies to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and optimize operations at solid waste facilities.

 

At SCS, our workplace culture is guided by three core principles; trust, care, and grow. We are searching for an Entry-Level Engineer for our Harrisburg Landfill Gas (LFG) Engineering Team who seeks to advance their career through training, mentoring, and experience in the field and office. The ideal candidate will be self-motivated, team-focused, and ready to learn.

 

The Entry-Level Engineer will provide engineering/design support to the Harrisburg LFG Engineering Team within our existing solid waste practice which is focused on providing engineering services to private and municipal clients in the landfill, landfill gas, and solid waste management industries. Potential projects include landfill gas collection system design, data analysis, air pollution control design, air quality monitoring, Title V compliance reporting, permitting, and on-site construction oversight.

How you can make an impact

You will support environmental project work including:

• Landfill gas collection and control system design, including construction plans, specifications, and construction documents.
