At S&ME, we have a history of delivering innovative geotechnical, civil, environmental, and construction material testing for over 50 years. Over the decades, we have grown into a trusted partner for clients across various industries, including transportation, energy, water, waste management, education, government, commercial, industrial, and more. Our commitment to technical excellence and integrity has established us as a leader in our field.

Flexibility: Work-life balance matters to us, helping you thrive inside and outside the office.

About The Role:

Project Testing Assignments: Juggle testing assignments across projects, contributing to the success of each endeavor.
Equipment Maintenance and Calibration: Maintain testing equipment in working order and calibration; can include managing field and laboratory equipment inventories, formal calibration records, and participating in quality systems audits.
Report Creation: Craft detailed reports to effectively communicate findings.

This position may require working 50+ hours per week (during periods of peak workload), as well as off-shift and weekend work, as needed. Experience in Safety, DDC, NDT, and Radiation Training, including the use of fall protection equipment and personal fall arrest systems, is a plus.

- AWS Certified Welding Inspector (CWI) certification or working towards it

- Additional certifications, a plus:
  - ICC certification in Building Inspections and/or Structural Steel Inspection

You can safely operate a company-assigned vehicle, including trucks and SUVs
You are willing to complete a background check, driving record check, and drug screen upon offer of employment

Working the majority of the time outdoors in varying weather conditions
Climbing heights over 200 feet
Routinely lifting and carrying 40-50 lbs. of materials and equipment
Safely handling field tools and maneuvering equipment on active construction sites
Working outside of normal business hours and traveling (typically out-of-town and/or overnight) as project needs arise
