Job Summary FLSA: Exempt STANDBY: Not Applicable EEO CATEGORY: Professionals DOT: Not Applicable FORM 700: Not Applicable UNIT: CVWDEA ENGINEER I/II Engineer I - Salary, monthly $9,066 to $12,520. Engineer II - Salary, monthly $9,933 to $13,735. Engineers possessing a valid license as a Professional Engineer in Civil Engineering in the State of California will receive an additional pay of 5% to their current base salary .

SUPERVISION RECEIVED AND EXERCISED Receives general supervision (Engineer I) to direction (Engineer II) from assigned management personnel. Exercises no direct supervision over staff. CLASS CHARACTERISTICS Engineer I: This is the entry-level classification in the Engineer series. Initially under close supervision, incumbents learn and perform routine engineering duties. 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 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. 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. Engineer II: This is the fully qualified journey-level classification in the Engineer. Positions at this level are distinguished from the Engineer 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. Positions in the Engineer class series are flexibly staffed; positions at the Engineer II level are normally filled by advancement from the Engineer I level; progression to the Engineer II level is dependent on (i) a business need to staff an Engineer II; (ii) management affirmation that the position is performing the full range of duties assigned to the classification; (iii) satisfactory work performance; (iv) the incumbent meeting the minimum qualifications for the classification including any licenses and certifications, and District assessment testing requirements; and (v) management approval for progression to the Engineer II level.
