Hi all,
Weed control position for the jobs board. Seems appropriate for interns and full-time, but I suspect internships are the match here. I don’t write ‘em, I just pass them along. 😉

I’ll leave a link to our Noxious Weed Aide positions here: https://www.governmentjobs.com/careers/skagitwa/jobs/4380188/seasonal-noxious-weed-aide. I also have a Handshake page for our Skagit County Noxious Weed Board, if that’s an easier way to share information. These are seasonal, full-time positions, mainly focused on surveying and controlling noxious weeds in our estuaries/salt marshes and rivers/riparian areas. We can be flexible on start/end dates, since these are great opportunities for current or graduating students.

Hello Students,
Our Public Works Department has just posted for two Engineering Tech I/II/III positions which are perfect for a recent Civil Engineering graduates, or one with a few years’ experience under their belt.
Hi all,
This snow hydrology focused postdoc opportunity may be of interest to you:
Recent 3 publications:
The job will be initially funded by an Army Corps project focused on understanding the snow-soil interface to improve vehicle mobility (odds of getting stuck) in adverse conditions. One group at DRI is focusing on the modeling of the snow and soil columns while my group is focused on developing snow and soil climatologies and probabilistic information using reanalysis and LSM outputs to inform decision support. Ideally, the candidate would also be a good fit to potentially stay at DRI and the WRCC after the postdoc. Listing is here: https://nshe.wd1.myworkdayjobs.com/en-US/DRI-External/details/Postdoctoral-Researcher–Snow-Hydrology_R0138914.

Washington State Handout for College Students – Updated 1.9.23 (1)
Hello,
We have an exciting opportunity that we would like you to be aware of!
Note: We are doing another review for this position as it has not been filled.
The Shorelands & Environmental Assistance (SEA) program within the Department of Ecology is looking to fill a Regional Section Manager (WMS Band 2) position. This position is located in our Headquarter Office in Lacey, WA. Upon hire, you must live within a commutable distance from the duty station.
Ecology established the Coastal Monitoring & Analysis Program (CMAP) in 1996 and has recently added complementary work units including a Shoreline Mapping Unit and Coastal Engineering Team as part of the newly titled SEA Applied Coastal Research and Engineering (ACRE) Section. Collectively the team performs state of the art research to better understand physical changes along Washington’s beaches, bluffs, and nearshore zones to enhance their management, protection, and restoration while reducing coastal hazards and increasing community resilience. Climate impacts are rapidly increasing in frequency and intensity, changing Washington’s marine areas. This is a unique opportunity to manage a multi-disciplinary team of professional staff who lead research, engineering, mapping, monitoring, data analysis, and technical assistance to support state and local efforts to collaboratively shape a resilience future for communities and the environment.
This Section Manager position offers a unique opportunity to join a dynamic and collaborative team – Washington State’s Applied Research and Coastal Engineering (ACRE) Section – focused on documenting, understanding, and forecasting coastal processes and change on Washington’s high-energy ocean shorelines as well as the sheltered shorelines of coastal estuaries and the Salish Sea. In this role, you will engage with a wide variety of key issues regarding coastal community and ecosystem resilience, including chronic coastal erosion and flood hazards, climate change impacts on coastal hazards, shoreline and bluff retreat, natural and nature-based multi-benefit coastal projects, process-based restoration projects, and the application of morphodynamic approaches to nearshore habitat and ecosystem services studies.
