My apologies for what will certainly be multiple postings. Please share with colleagues you think might be interested. Thank you!
Job opportunity with the USGS:
Applications are due 05/21/2020!
The USGS Earthquake Science Center has an open position for a Supervisory Physical Science Technician
The United States Geological Survey (USGS) seeks motivated candidates for a position in the National Strong Motion Project (NSMP), part of the Earthquake Monitoring Project. The NSMP installs and operates instrumentation in structures such as buildings, dams, and bridges and in free-field sites. These data provide the basis for studies of large-scale seismogenic failure, for studies of crustal and localized wave propagation, for mitigation of earthquake hazards through improved earthquake resistant design, and for improved emergency response through rapid notification of shaking on and near manmade structures.
This position oversees the operation of National Strong Motion Network and supervises field staff who are responsible for the design, test, calibration, installation, operation, and maintenance of sensors, dataloggers, and communications infrastructure. The position manages schedules, directs field operations, troubleshoots station and telemetry issues, and assists with metadata verification and data quality assessment. It negotiates and administers complex agreements with multiple federal, state, regional, and private organizations for the design, installation, operations and maintenance of structural monitoring systems.
This position is being offered in Menlo Park (soon to be Moffett Field) or in Pasadena, CA. Openings for this full-time, permanent position are being advertised as Physical Science Technician at the GS-12 level, with an annual salary range from $ 87,612 (step 1) - $ 113,900 (step 10) in Pasadena and $ 93,587 (step 1) - $ 121,668 (step 10) in Menlo Park/Moffett Field. US citizenship is required. Only online applications will be accepted. The federal government is an equal opportunity employer.
