Montana FWP is hiring a full-time fish culturist in Miles City. Most of the job is daily rearing work: cleaning tanks, feeding, sampling for growth, tracking density and running water quality tests on recirculating units, plus helping with remote egg collection and stocking lakes. About a third of the time goes to equipment and grounds maintenance, and you would share 24-hour standby for hatchery alarms and train seasonal staff. The usual background is a bachelor’s degree in fisheries, biology or a related field with a year of related experience, though other mixes are considered, and the job may require a Class B CDL. Pay is $27.19 an hour with state benefits. Apply through the State of Montana careers site with a resume and cover letter by November 15, 2026.
