Environmental Engineer Jobs in Massachusetts: Frequently Asked Questions

How do you become a environmental engineer in Massachusetts?

Becoming an environmental engineer in Massachusetts requires a bachelor's degree in environmental, civil, or chemical engineering from an accredited program, followed by passing the Fundamentals of Engineering exam to earn Engineer in Training status through the Massachusetts Board of Registration of Professional Engineers and Land Surveyors. After gaining qualifying work experience, you sit for the Professional Engineer exam to earn full PE licensure, which many Massachusetts employers require for independent project responsibility.

How much do environmental engineers make in Massachusetts?

Environmental engineers in Massachusetts earn a median of about $115,800 a year, based on May 2025 Bureau of Labor Statistics wage data, ranging from around $77,150 for the lowest 10% to over $172,920 for the top 10%. Pay rises with experience, specialty, and employer.

Which companies hire environmental engineers in Massachusetts?

Employers hiring environmental engineers in Massachusetts right now include Anchor QEA, TRC, and ROUX, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of August 2026. Massachusetts's dense concentration of environmental consulting firms, municipal water authorities, and clean energy developers keeps demand steady across the state throughout the year.

Which Massachusetts cities have the most environmental engineer jobs?

Boston, Amesbury, and Canton have the most environmental engineer openings in Massachusetts. Boston drives the largest share of postings given its headquarters concentration of consulting firms, state agencies, and universities, while Worcester and Cambridge generate demand through manufacturing remediation work, research institutions, and growing clean energy development activity.

Are there remote environmental engineer jobs in Massachusetts?

Yes, but they're rare. About 50% of environmental engineer openings tied to Massachusetts are remote or hybrid as of August 2026, reflecting the field's strong on-site requirements for sampling, site assessment, and regulatory inspection work. The tasks most likely to be done remotely are data analysis, report writing, permit preparation, and GIS mapping, which some employers package into hybrid schedules.

How can I get hired as a environmental engineer in Massachusetts with little or no experience?

The most realistic entry path is applying to environmental consulting firms that hire new graduates directly into staff engineer or environmental scientist associate roles. Large Massachusetts-based consulting employers regularly bring on graduates for field sampling, data management, and report support work. Earning your EIT certification through the Massachusetts Board of Registration strengthens any application significantly. Adjacent roles in civil engineering, geology, or environmental science at municipal authorities and MassDEP-regulated facilities also provide a credible transition into dedicated environmental engineering positions.

Where can I find and apply to environmental engineer jobs in Massachusetts?
