The fundamental reason this classification exists is to apply professional electrical engineering knowledge and skills to a variety of engineering functions within the Engineering and Architectural Services Department. Work assignments are broad in scope and require the use of independent judgement and initiative in making technical decisions of considerable difficulty. In addition, the managerial aspects of these assignments are of equal importance since this class is responsible for the direction of major programs.
Supervision is exercised over a staff of professional, paraprofessional, and office employees.
Work is reviewed by an Engineering Supervisor through discussion and inspection, primarily for determining general progress and adherence to departmental policies and regulations. Demonstrates continuous effort to improve operations, decrease turnaround times, streamline work processes, and work cooperatively and jointly to provide quality seamless customer service. Advanced mathematical techniques, such as those gained through the study of calculus and differential equations. Development and derivation of formulas and relationships, basic assumptions made, and limitations and areas of applicability of established electrical engineering principles, methods, and techniques. Applicable titles of state statutes, county health regulations, and city codes and ordinances as they relate to the management of complex projects.
