Description
Description
The Great Basin Institute, in cooperation with the USFS, is recruiting a Senior Archaeologist to complete Section 106 cultural resource project planning, surveys, site recording, monitoring, reporting, and subcontractor coordination for various projects within the Sequoia National Forest. These projects all serve the Cultural Resources program’s greater mission of helping the USFS in their critical goal of improving forest resilience in the face of worsening climate conditions and increased wildfire threats. The work that you will do directly protects sensitive cultural resources, helping ensure the stories they tell are preserved for generations to come.
The Senior Archaeologist position provides professional development and leadership opportunities in cultural resource management including increased exposure and responsibility enacting USFS processes, procedures, and compliance measures; reporting and data entry/quality assurance and control; and increased technical and project planning experience. The Senior Archaeologist will also act as liaison between USFS staff, archaeology crews, and subcontractors in the field and will serve in a hybrid role that splits time between field and office duties. Expanded opportunities and exposure to additional disciplines (e.g., forestry, wildlife, hydrology, etc.) and projects may exist. These positions will serve USFS ecosystem and fuels reduction efforts, supporting initiatives for healthy, productive, and resilient forest landscapes and resources.
The Senior Archaeologist will perform a variety of activities to support all stages of project work. The Senior Archaeologist will be responsible for crew safety and crew lead oversight, provide or assist in training, and communicate with agency partners, cultural resource subcontractors, and GBI staff regularly. Primary archaeology field duties may include, but are not limited to the following:
Assist with project planning and initial coordination with subcontractors and Tribal Monitors.
Lead archaeology crews to conduct and complete field surveys to document, assess and characterize the status of new cultural resources.
Strong leadership skills and ability to delegate tasks to crew lead and crew members.
Monitor existing sites and complete site updates and condition assessments.
Conduct monitoring of timber activities.
Prepare California DPR site records, GIS maps, and photographic records in addition to inputting data to the USFS heritage database.
Lead and collaborate with agency personnel, subcontractors, and all other crew members to support field safety, communication, planning, logistics, quality assurance, field implementation, and reporting efforts.
This physically demanding work, often in remote locations, will provide the Senior Archaeologist with rewarding exposure to some of Sierra Nevada’s backcountry forested landscapes. These positions may require occasional extensive hiking in steep terrain at high altitudes (5,000-9,000 ft.) with heavy packs on a semi-regular basis, possibly during extreme or inclement weather conditions such as heat, snow or rain. Work schedules, generally four 10-hour days with 3 days off each week, are subject to change depending on weather and project needs. There will be possible overtime as needed. Camping near a work site for several days may be required to meet project objectives.
Project Timeline : 6-8 months with the possibility to extend, ideal start date May 2026
Compensation and Benefits :
Wage: $39-42.50 based on experience with overtime at 1.5x hourly rate. Full time, 40 hours per week.
Benefits:
Health, Dental, Vision Insurance premiums 100% paid by GBI. Available on the first day of the month following the start of employment.
Shared housing provided through Airbnb or USFS barracks.
Camping Per Diem
Uniform Stipend: $250.
Location:
The Forest Service, a federal agency in the U.S. Department of Agriculture, administers the Sequoia National Forest which consists of three ranger districts. The Giant Sequoia National Monument has two separate sections; the northern portion located on the Hume Lake Ranger District near Dunlap, California, and the southern portion on the Western Divide Ranger District just east of Springville, California. The Kern River Ranger District lies at the southern end of the forest near Lake Isabella.
The Sequoia NF is one of nineteen National Forests in California. It takes its name from the giant Sequoia, the world's largest tree, which grows in more than 30 groves in the forest's lower elevation slopes. The Sequoia's landscape is as spectacular as its trees. Soaring granite monoliths, glacier-carved canyons, roaring whitewater, and more await your discovery at the Sierra Nevada's southern end. Elevations range from 1,000 feet in the foothill region to peaks over 12,000 feet in the rugged high country, providing visitors with some of the most spectacular views of mountainous landscape in the entire west.

The Giant Sequoia National Monument has two separate sections; the northern portion located on the Hume Lake Ranger District near Dunlap, California, and the southern portion on the Western Divide Ranger District just east of Springville, California. The Kern River Ranger District lies at the southern end of the forest near Lake Isabella.\\r\\n\\r\\nThe Sequoia NF is one of nineteen National Forests in California. It takes its name from the giant Sequoia, the world's largest tree, which grows in more than 30 groves in the forest's lower elevation slopes. The Sequoia's landscape is as spectacular as its trees. Soaring granite monoliths, glacier-carved canyons, roaring whitewater, and more await your discovery at the Sierra Nevada's southern end. Elevations range from 1,000 feet in the foothill region to peaks over 12,000 feet in the rugged high country, providing visitors with some of the most spectacular views of mountainous landscape in the entire west.\\r\\n\",\"employmentType\":\"TEMPORARY\",\"hiringOrganization\":{\"@type\":\"Organization\",\"name\":\"GREAT BASIN INSTITUTE\",\"logo\":\"https://www.paycomonline.net/v4/ats/web.php/application/style/logo?clientkey=A1ADEF5691B02D64E998539442696918\"},\"jobLocation\":{\"@type\":\"Place\",\"address\":{\"streetAddress\":\"\",\"addressLocality\":\"Kernville\",\"addressRegion\":\"CA\",\"postalCode\":\"\",\"addressCountry\":\"USA\"}},\"qualifications\":\"Required:\\r\\n\\r\\n\\r\\n\\tSOI qualified AND three years of archaeology-related field work; \\r\\n\\tExperience leading crews in the field, including oversight of crew safety, communication, fidelity to methods and data quality; \\r\\n\\tProficiency in navigation using GPS, topographic map and compass;\\r\\n\\tAbility to recognize and record prehistoric and historic artifacts, features, and architecture;\\r\\n\\tPossess a clean, valid, state-issued driver’s license with the ability to safely operate and maintain a 4WD vehicle on and off paved roads;\\r\\n\\tAbility to work effectively in a team setting with USFS staff, GBI staff, interns, volunteers, academic, state, and federal partners;\\r\\n\\tAbility to work safely and productively in remote field settings under adverse conditions.
