Montgomery City County Personnel

Engineering Technician I (#CI2030)


FLSA Status

Non-exempt

Pay Grade

A05

Nature of Work

The fundamental reason this classification exists is to perform entry-level survey engineering work in the field as part of a survey crew.  As experience is acquired, the incumbent will perform with increasing independence. Responsibilities include working as the instrument person with the surveying crew or performing as a lead worker when the crew chief is absent. This classification differs from the Engineering Technician IIs in that the assignments are more complex and require a higher level of independent decision-making. Specific work assignments are received from the Professional Land Surveyor; however, the work is conducted under the direct supervision of the Engineering Technician II and is typically reviewed during progress and upon completion.

Minimum Qualifications

High school diploma or GED and one (1) year of experience working on basic surveying tasks such as measuring distances on ballfields, Right-of-Ways, playgrounds or other areas requiring staking out ground for accurate measurements.

NOTE:  Qualifying education, training and experience that provide the requisite knowledge, skills and abilities to perform the job will be considered.

Special Requirements

Ability to obtain and maintain a valid Alabama Driver’s License and an insurable driving record as needed to operate a city vehicle in the performance of tasks.  Must be willing to work outside in all normal environmental conditions.
