Hydrogeologist Jobs in Houston, TX

A Hydrogeologist is a specialist scientist in the environmental industry, primarily focused on the study and management of water in the earth's crust. These professionals utilize their knowledge of geology and hydrology to solve issues relating to water quality and availability. Their responsibilities typically include assessing water resources, predicting the movement of water in underground aquifers, monitoring the impact of environmental changes on water systems, and devising strategies for sustainable water management. They often work on projects related to water supply, wastewater treatment, irrigation, flood prediction, and environmental conservation.

Essential skills for a Hydrogeologist include strong analytical abilities, proficiency in data interpretation, knowledge of hydraulic modeling software, and the capacity to work in challenging field conditions. On the educational front, a degree in geology, hydrogeology, or environmental science is usually required. Additionally, certain certifications like the Professional Geologist (PG) or Certified Hydrogeologist (CHG) can enhance career prospects. Prior to becoming a Hydrogeologist, a person may gain relevant experience through roles such as an Environmental Scientist, Geologist, or Water Resources Engineer.
