Job Summary

DJ&A is seeking two seasonal Rangeland Monitoring Technicians out of Reno, Nevada, with one year of relevant experience to work March / April through September 2025. There is a possibility of an earlier start date and / or a transition into a full-time position for the right candidate. Candidates will have a bachelor’s degree in rangeland ecology, natural resource management, or biology and at least one year of experience with rangeland or vegetation monitoring. Qualifications may be met through education, experience, or a combination. Technicians will be paired with a field lead, and as a team of two, they will conduct rangeland monitoring on Bureau of Land Management (BLM) administered land throughout Nevada. Technicians may also participate in fieldwork in other states across the West. This position requires working, hiking, and camping in remote areas during the spring, summer and fall. Technicians must be detail-oriented, enjoy being outside for long periods, work well with others, and be interested in learning about rangeland science.

Primary Duties and Schedule

  • Technicians will conduct rangeland field monitoring for an average of 5 consecutive days, up to 12 days maximum. Fieldwork will typically occur during the work week, though there may be occasional field stints that extend into the weekends to maximize efficiency. A typical schedule will be one week in the field, followed by a week in the office.
  • Technicians will be responsible for a large amount of data entry and will be expected to enter, manage, and review data with accuracy and consistency to ensure high quality. Attention to detail is essential and expected.
  • Fieldwork is often located in remote and rugged areas of Nevada and will be accessed using a 4x4 truck, UTV, or on foot. Road conditions can be highly variable and challenging. Technicians will be expected to share and comfortably handle driving and vehicle maintenance responsibilities alongside field leads. UTV, trailer, and other related training will be provided.
  • Safety is DJ&A's top priority, and all field personnel are expected to perform tasks and act in a safe manner in accordance with company policy and internal training.

Field Data Collection Overview

  • Monitoring methods include but are not limited to Key Species Utilization, Height-Weight Utilization, Production, Riparian Multiple Indicator Monitoring, and Photo Plots. All crew members will participate in protocol trainings to ensure understanding of relevant monitoring methods, data entry procedures, and QAQC processes.
  • DJ&A is committed to the professional development of all its employees. Therefore, technicians receive training throughout the season with the expectation that they will be able to perform monitoring methods without technical assistance by the end of the field season. This includes not only understanding the monitoring methods thoroughly but also becoming proficient in identifying Great Basin plant species.
  • Office Work Overview

  • When not in the field, technicians are expected to work in the office located in northern Reno near Parr Boulevard. Some remote work is allowed but must be approved by the supervisor.
  • Technicians will assist the field leads with QAQC of field data, maps, and notes.
  • Technicians will assist field leads in the planning and preparation of upcoming field stints. This work involves route planning, equipment packing, cleaning and organizing, vehicle maintenance, and occasionally running errands around Reno.
  • Technicians are expected to proactively manage administrative and office-related tasks during their scheduled office week, anticipating that they will be out of the office the following week.
  • Required Skills and Abilities

  • Strong attention to detail, quick-learner, and highly self-motivated.
  • Proficient in data entry and management.
  • Prioritizes safety and well-being of the team.
  • Experienced and comfortable working and hiking in extreme weather conditions and over varied and challenging terrain.
  • Must be able to safely and comfortably operate a vehicle or UTV on 4-wheel drive roads and in remote conditions.
  • Must be able to work and camp in remote conditions for extended periods of time.
  • Must be able to lift up to 50 pounds at times and hike up to 6 miles.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills. Technicians will be expected to communicate regularly with supervisors, even while in the field, regarding timesheets, schedule changes and other matters.

  • At least one year of experience related to rangeland and / or vegetation monitoring.

  • Medical, dental and vision benefits (monthly medical premiums fully paid for High Deductible Health Plan).
  • Long-term disability and life insurance.
  • Health Savings Account (HSA) or Flexible Spending Account (FSA) with company contribution.
  • Roth and 401(k) retirement accounts.
