Receives assignment of limited scope and complexity, usually minor phases of broader assignments. Uses a variety of standard engineering methods and techniques in solving problems. Assists in carrying out technical tasks requiring accuracy in calculations, completeness of and adherence to prescribed data testing analysis, design or computation methods. Recommendations limited to solution of the problem rather than end results. Decisions made are normally within established guidelines.
Work is reviewed for accuracy, adequacy and conformance with prescribed procedures.
Duties are assigned with detailed oral and occasionally written instructions, as to methods and procedures to be followed. Results are usually reviewed in detail and technical guidance is usually available. May give technical guidance to one or two junior engineers, or technicians, assigned to work on a common project. Bachelor's degree in Engineering or Applied Science, or its equivalent, normally with two to three years working experience since graduation. This is typically regarded as a fully qualified professional engineering level.
