CLOSING DATE & TIME: JULY 7, 2022 AT 4:00PM PACIFIC TIME
Under immediate (Technician I) to general (Technician II) supervision, the Mechanical Maintenance Technician for Eastern Municipal Water District performs a wide variety of skilled duties in the installation, modification, design, maintenance, and repair of mechanical equipment and machinery used in the operation of large state-of-the-art water and reclaimed water stations, and wastewater treatment facilities: maintains a diverse range of mechanical equipment and appurtenances in raw sewage lift stations, pumping stations and deep wells: and performs related duties as assigned.
Mechanical Maintenance Technician I: This is the entry-level classification in the Mechanical Maintenance Technician I/II series. Initially under close supervision, incumbents learn and perform routine duties in the installation, modification, design, maintenance, and repair of mechanical equipment and machinery. As experience is gained, assignments become more varied, complex, and difficult; close supervision and frequent review of work lessen as an incumbent demonstrates skill to perform the work independently. Positions at this level usually perform most of the duties required of the positions at the Mechanical Maintenance Technician 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. Work is usually supervised while in progress and fits an established structure or pattern. Exceptions or changes in procedures are explained in detail as they arise.
_ _
Mechanical Maintenance Technician II: This is the fully qualified journey-level classification in the Mechanical Maintenance Technician I/II series. Positions at this level are distinguished from the Mechanical Maintenance Technician I level by the performance of the full range of duties as assigned, working independently, and exercising judgment and initiative. 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.
