Non-Exempt

Monterey One Water is looking for an experienced electrician /instrumentation technician to join our team. The ideal candidate should have experience with process controls, be self-motivated, have a positive attitude and work well in a team environment.

Under direct or general supervision, performs a variety of duties involved in the installation, maintenance, repair, and operation of control instrumentation, electrical, electronic, radio, and telemetry equipment and systems; and performs other job related duties as required.

This is the entry-level class in the Electrician/Instrumentation Technician series. Positions at this level are responsible for assisting in the electrical and electronic repair, maintenance, and operation of pumping station, plant, and facilities systems and equipment. Incumbents are expected to assist in the performance of electrical and electronic repair and maintenance work including installation, diagnosis, repair, and overhaul duties. Positions at this level usually perform most of the duties required of the positions at the II level, but are not expected to function with the same amount of 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.

This is the journey-level class in the Electrician/Instrumentation Technician series. Positions at this level perform electrical and electronic repair, maintenance, and operation of pumping station, plant, and facilities systems and equipment. Incumbents are expected to perform the full range of electrical and electronic repair and maintenance work including installation, programming, diagnosis, repair, and overhaul duties on control instrumentation, electrical, electronic, radio, and telemetry equipment, devices, and systems.

Positions at this level are distinguished from the I-level by working independently, applying well developed skills, and exercising judgment and initiative. Assignments are performed with the expectation that incumbents have the ability to choose among alternatives in solving job problems and work productively with outside contractors and in the absence of a supervisor. 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.

Work is normally reviewed only on completion and for overall results.
