sanitation engineer
Trash removal worker
Sanitation engineer is a euphemistic job title for a garbage collector or janitor.
The elevated language mirrors genuine engineering titles while describing manual waste-handling work.
The term reflects a broader trend of dignifying occupations through formal-sounding titles: The sanitation engineers come by every Tuesday morning.
