Hydrographic Processing Specialist (San Rafael, CA) - Expression of Interest
About The Position
Woolpert is looking for Hydrographic Processing Specialists to join our California Bathymetric and Geophysical Data Processing Team.

Alternatively to a remote option, an in-office role is available within the San Rafael, CA office if the candidate is local to the Bay Area or willing to relocate. Projects this team typically support are private sector oil & gas, offshore wind, environmental remediation, object detection, cable route design, utility detection, pipeline crossings, and offshore platform and utility inspection surveys. The data processing team supports the hydrographic survey team which performs surveys for private and public agencies throughout the United States with offices in California, Washington, Alaska, South Carolina, and Texas. Due to this being a processing role, work travel is not expected and field time is not needed.
