Utility Analyst I-II – Hydrologist

Turlock Irrigation District is seeking a Utility Analyst–Hydrologist to join our Hydrology Department. In this role, you’ll provide analytical and decision-making support for our water operations by integrating regulatory requirements, monitoring data, and infrastructure information to help ensure effective stewardship of our community’s water resources.

While a background in hydrology is not required, successful candidates will demonstrate the ability to learn core water-resource concepts quickly and stay current with emerging hydrological, environmental, and analytical trends. We welcome analysts who are eager to grow alongside the evolving field of water resource management.

Perform a variety of professional duties involved in the planning, modeling, analysis, development and use of District resources around the hydrologic operations including: water rights, water law and regulation, water supply, flood control, electric generation, electric contracts, and fuel in one or more of the following fields of concentration: resource planning, policy, rates, risk management, report, and energy services.

The class of Utility Analyst I differs from that of Utility Analyst II in that those incumbents of the Utility Analyst I class perform less varied, complex or technical tasks. A position in the Utility Analyst II class is filled by advancement from the class of Utility Analyst I. Incumbents of the Utility Analyst II class are expected to independently perform a wide variety of difficult and complex work. Adequate performance requires knowledge of District policies and procedures, and the ability to choose among a number of alternatives in solving problems. Work is normally reviewed only on completion for overall results.
