Build Something That Matters
Want to be part of a project that's changing how waste is converted into renewable energy?
We're hiring a Field Engineer to support construction, installation, commissioning, and startup activities for a large-scale food waste-to-energy facility in Burley, Idaho. This is a hands-on engineering role for someone who enjoys solving real-world problems in the field, working directly with contractors and trades, and helping bring complex industrial systems to life.
Whether you're an Engineer-in-Training (EIT) looking to accelerate your career or a licensed Professional Engineer (PE) seeking project-level impact, this role offers exposure to every stage of facility development.
What We Offer

• $95,000-$140,000 annual salary, depending on experience
• Opportunity to work on a landmark renewable energy project
• Significant field exposure and technical responsibility
• Hands-on involvement with construction, commissioning, and startup
• Career advancement opportunities into Project Engineering and Project Management
• Collaborative team environment with experienced industry professionals

Why This Role Stands Out
This isn't an entry-level desk job. You'll be in the field solving problems, supporting construction activities, interacting with project leadership, and helping deliver a facility that will convert food waste into renewable energy.
If you enjoy being close to the work, making decisions, and seeing tangible results from your efforts, this is an opportunity to accelerate your career while contributing to a meaningful project.
