How'd you like work for the greater good, have access to three retirement plans (401k, 457b, and pension), while only working 40 hours a week?

We're looking for three environmental or civil engineers to help us keep California's water clean, affordable, and plentiful. The unit is less than one year old and tasked with getting the lead out of people's plumbing. It's the closest thing to a startup you'll find in government work – there's less structure (fewer rules) than established programs.

• Education: Bachelor's degree or higher from an ABET-accredited school. Doesn't strictly need to be an environmental/civil engineering degree (See "minimum qualifications" for more details), but they are common occupants of Water Resource Control Engineer jobs.
• Experience: Entry-level applicants welcome; our organization hires fresh graduates and world-weary environmental consultants alike!
• Licensure: Not required. However, being a licensed California Professional Engineer will immediately boost you to pay range D (Alternate Range Criteria 424). A California PE is also required to promote into a technical specialist role or up the managerial totem pole.
• Location: Sacramento, California. The team is currently required to come in for a minimum of 1 day a month (90-95% telework), but this could change in the future. Teleworking from outside California is not allowed.

If you apply for a job, you must also take an eligibility exam to place your name onto the Water Resource Control Engineer "eligibility list." Getting your name onto the list qualifies you for all Water Resource Control Engineer jobs under the State of California's banner (for one year). Applying for this job and putting your name on the eligibility list are two independent processes that move on parallel tracks; both are required for employment.

If you're tired of scrounging for billable hours and you salivate at the thought of accumulating 640 hours of PTO, join our team! The deadline to apply is 5/1/23 at 11:59 pm, Pacific Time.
