THE POSITION With supervisor approval, incumbents may be eligible for intermittent remote work; however, they must physically reside within the Sacramento region or have the ability to regularly report to a City of Sacramento physical worksite with little notice. The Community Development Department is seeking a Supervising Engineer to lead and supervise the plan review team in the Building Division. The Supervising Engineer will manage a broad range of engineering principles, including structural, life safety, mechanical, plumbing, and electrical. IDEAL CANDIDATE STATEMENT The ideal candidate is proficient in the plan review process and building codes and standards. Additionally, the ideal candidate has experience in preparing engineering studies and reports, developing and implementing goals and policies, and budget preparation. Under direction, the Supervising Engineer supervises professional and technical staff performing professional engineering work for a major unit of a City department; prepares engineering studies and reports; assists in development and implementation of goals and policies; supervises and assists in preparation of budgets and capital improvement programs.
