    CLOSING DATE & TIME:   OPEN UNTIL FILLED - SECOND REVIEW OF APPLICATIONS ON SEPTEMBER 9, 2022 AT 4:00PM PACIFIC TIME

    Under direction (Engineer I) to general direction (Engineer II), the Associate Civil Engineer in the Development Services department performs complex professional engineering work in the research, planning, hydraulic modeling, design and construction of water, wastewater, and recycled water capital infrastructure, improvement, maintenance, and construction projects; prepares and develops in-house project design work; develops complex designs, project budgets, engineer’s estimates, construction schedules, technical specifications, and special conditions as well as engineering reports, plans, and studies; and performs related duties as assigned.

    This position requires the ability to review, prepare, or direct the preparation of complex engineering plans, specifications, and legal contracts; prepare and evaluate engineering studies of large projects; perform accurate engineering calculations and cost estimates; handle unusual design requests; explain design criteria, policies, ordinances, and procedures to consultants; understand and apply those aspects of federal, state, and local laws, regulations, policies, procedures, and standards pertaining to the planning process; serve as construction administrator for developer-driven and EMWD projects; serve as project engineer for facility relocations or expansions due to conflicts with proposed projects from outside agencies or utility companies; review and assist in the preparation of design conditions; direct and coordinate the work of lower-level professional and technical staff; analyze problems and identify alternative solutions; communicate clearly, concisely, orally and in writing; manage contracts; and establish and maintain effective working relationships with those contacted in the course of work.

     

    Associate Civil Engineer I:  This is the first working level within the professional registered engineering series.  Positions at this level usually perform most of the duties required of the positions at the Associate Civil Engineer II level but are not expected to function at the same skill level and usually exercise less independent discretion and judgment in matters related to work procedures and methods.  Positions at this level receive only occasional instruction or assistance as new or unusual situations arise and are fully aware of the operating procedures and policies of the work unit.

     

    Associate Civil Engineer II:  This is the fully qualified journey-level classification in the professional registered engineering series.  Positions at this level are distinguished from the Associate Civil Engineer I level by the performance of the full range of duties as assigned, working independently, and exercising judgment and initiative.  Incumbents regularly work on tasks which are varied and complex, requiring considerable discretion and independent judgment.  Positions in the classification rely on experience and judgment to perform assigned duties.  Assignments are given with general guidelines and incumbents are responsible for establishing objectives, timelines, and methods to complete assignments.  Work is typically reviewed upon completion for soundness, appropriateness, and conformity to policy and requirements.
