Lead Environmental Technician

Position Overview :

Legacy Remediation's Benicia office is seeking an experienced, full-time Lead Field Technician (40+ hrs./week) to support and help lead our growing field operations. This role is ideal for individuals with strong mechanical trade skills and experience leading field crews, who are interested in applying those skills within the environmental remediation industry. Prior remediation or drilling experience is not required—we are looking for candidates who are mechanically capable, field-proven, and motivated to learn. The Lead Field Technician is a hands-on leader responsible for executing field projects, guiding small crews, and ensuring work is completed safely, efficiently, and in alignment with project objectives. This role requires someone who takes ownership in the field, can troubleshoot equipment and site conditions in real time, and is comfortable acting as the point person on active job sites.

Typical workdays are Monday-Friday, generally starting at our Benicia office around 5:00 AM, with end times varying (often around 5:00 PM) depending on project location and traffic. Overtime and double-time opportunities are common. Most projects are located in the Bay Area, with some travel (~10-25%) required throughout California.
