Engineering Technician I, II, & III
$5,737 - $9,235/Monthly
Grow your technical career with County of Sonoma as an Engineering Technician I, II, or III!
Permit Sonoma is currently recruiting for Engineering Technician positions at either the I, II, or III level. If you are interested in applying at the other level of this opportunity, you must apply to the separate concurrent recruitments being conducted for those levels.
Working mostly in the office with some field work, Permit Sonoma's Engineering Technicians perform work related to plan checks for grading, sanitation, and encroachment applications and the inspection of private construction projects. They focus on plan checks, but also inspect drainage improvements, grading, cut-fills, sanitation and water connections, curb-gutter-sidewalks, and driveways for code and plan compliance. As an Engineering Technician I, II, or III your responsibilities will include:
Reviewing maps and legal descriptions related to surveying, including subdivision maps, records of survey, and corner records
Accurately reviewing engineering and surveying calculations via plan checking
Verifying application plans, maps, calculations, and reports for County compliance standards
Performing site evaluations and construction inspections
Assisting clients with applications for engineering permits and surveying activities
Due to the nature of the inspection work that Engineering Technicians perform, incumbents are required to work indoors, in an office setting, and outdoors. They drive across the County in assigned County vehicles on dirt roads, pavements, and in various weather conditions. As these positions conduct site inspections in the unincorporated areas of Sonoma County, incumbents may be exposed to natural hazards such as poison oak, ticks, and other wildlife. If you enjoy a mixture of office and outdoor work and are comfortable working in hiking boots, bring your technical skills and positive attitude to Permit Sonoma!
