Description/Duties
The current vacancies are in Water Resources (Wastewater Collections Assignment).
An Equipment Operator II is a journey-level classification responsible for the safe, efficient operation and care of moderately complex heavy construction equipment. Incumbents perform tasks involved in one of the following: the construction, maintenance, and repair of the City's gas utility systems; the maintenance, repair, alteration, and construction of facilities, fixtures, and equipment at City parks, basins, golf courses, athletic/sports fields, and other recreational areas; maintenance and repair of City streets, storm drainage systems, parkways, and rights-of-way; or the construction, maintenance, and repair of the City's water and wastewater utility systems.
Incumbents operate various equipment requiring considerable skill and coordination to manipulate such as trencher, 18-ton hydraulic crane, mainline paint striper, vactor truck, asphalt paver, skid steer (with milling attachment), conveyor truck, back of the slurry truck (pugmill operation), combination high-velocity jetter/vactor truck or other related equipment which may be listed in the Equipment Operator I classification such as backhoe with multiple bucket sizes and dump truck.
Allocation to this class establishes the operation of moderately complex heavy equipment as the primary function of the position. However, when not operating equipment, an employee in this class is expected to take the initiative in assisting in the manual and technical aspects of the construction, maintenance, and repair activities. These assignments involve public contact, working near traffic and underground utility lines, exposure to hazardous chemicals, confined space entry, and heavy physical exertion under all weather conditions. An employee in this class must exercise caution when working in close proximity to underground natural gas, water, sewer, telephone, fiber, and electrical lines. In addition, an employee in this class must follow policies and procedures to safely dig trenches and holes that will expose the crew members to minimal risk of cave in. An employee in this class is required to use appropriate safety equipment and follow safety procedures in performing assignments. Employees have responsibility for the safety of coworkers while equipment operation is being performed. This class is subject to frequent emergency call-out and incumbents must be willing to work scheduled stand-by and overtime on nights, weekends, and holidays as required. This class is responsible for performing related duties as required.
The Equipment Operator I class is distinguished from the Equipment Operator II by the latter's higher degree of skill required to operate moderately complex heavy equipment and the greater consequences of error and exposure. An Equipment Operator II is distinguished from the Equipment Operator III by the latter's higher degree of skill required to operate the most complex equipment available with the greatest consequence of error and exposure. Duties require initiative and independent judgment in the care and operation of complex heavy construction equipment, as well as mechanical aptitude and skillful coordination of eye, hand, and foot movements. Importance is attached to the fact that the equipment requires constant attention to protect it from damage and to perform work effectively. Work is typically performed independently without immediate supervision. Supervision is received from a crew leader, foreman, or supervisor who reviews incumbents' work through on-site observation of work in progress and completed projects. Employees may progress to the Equipment Operator III assignment class by noncompetitive, criteria-based promotion after successful completion of required certifications, on-the-job training, achievement of satisfactory performance appraisals, and successful completion of initial City probation. This class is FLSA nonexempt.
