Michelle Langdon, PE, joins SCS Engineers to serve solid waste clients nationwide as Waste Management Project Director. Michelle works from Boise, ID, and brings to SCS her impressive expertise, qualifications, and success record.
Michelle Langdon is a licensed Professional Engineer in multiple states with a comprehensive work history emphasizing leadership in engineering projects related to waste management systems. She has over two decades of experience leading full-service, multidisciplinary teams across planning, design, construction, operations, and permitting. As a consultant, Michelle brings her years of experience working for a county waste management division to her work, helping her understand project challenges from her clients’ perspectives.
Her background includes designing and managing multiple projects to develop sustainable, efficient waste management systems that optimize operations, create safer work environments, reduce methane emissions, capture waste materials for beneficial reuse, and protect the environment.
Michelle says, ”After a lot of research and meeting with different firms, I knew SCS was the right place for me. I knew they were an industry leader with a deep breadth of technical expertise, but it is their focus on client service and employee welfare that drew me in.”
SWANA (the Solid Waste Association of North America) honored Michelle with the 2025 prestigious Professional Achievement Award for her work directing engineering efforts on complex and diverse solid waste projects, landfill expansions, coal combustion residuals, transfer station designs, master planning, and operations assessments. Along with managing multimillion-dollar civil and environmental engineering projects for landfills, composting facilities, recycling centers, and transfer stations, she oversees all phases of work from conceptual design and permitting through construction, and quality assurance/quality control (QA/QC). Her passion lies in sharing her knowledge with the waste industry and young professionals through teaching, presenting, and mentoring, and she has been fortunate to do so across the nation.
SCS Vice President Greg Helland says: In addition to Michelle’s successful record of accomplishments for her clients, she is a skilled presenter, trainer, and mentor.
