About The Position

Robson Forensic is seeking an experienced Civil Environmental or Chemical Engineer to investigate incidents and determine why they occurred. The role applies deep industry knowledge of wastewater and industrial air pollution mitigation system design and implementation, wastewater treatment facilities, landfills, and chemical safety protocols—including personal protective equipment assessment—to forensic investigations.

Approximately 20% of the role involves travel for training, inspections, and sworn testimony at depositions or trials. The remainder involves investigation, analysis, and report writing, both independently and collaboratively. The expert manages a portfolio of 50–70 projects or clients and participates in a firm of more than 100 scientists, engineers, and other professionals that offers and receives support and mentoring. Locations include Miami Lakes or Palm Beach Gardens, Florida; Atlanta, Georgia; Las Vegas, Nevada; Dublin, Ohio; Lancaster, Pennsylvania; and Irving, Texas, which is identified as hybrid.
