Duties
This position serves as a technical advisor in aquatic biology within the Division of Integrated Resources at Crater Lake National Park and plays an integral role in long-term limnological monitoring and research of Crater Lake, the deepest lake in the U.S. and one of the clearest lakes in the world. The limnology program at Crater Lake is one of the longest running monitoring and research studies of a deep-water lake and includes many operational crossovers with the field of oceanography because of lake depth. This position will manage daily field operations of the limnology program and may also assist with restoration and monitoring of stream fisheries within the park. Job duties include motorboat operation and the operation of research vessel cranes and winches, as well as the development and implementation of aquatic resource management, monitoring and research projects. SCUBA dive operations may be possible depending on training. The incumbent will be expected to work in a team environment with professional biologists and seasonal technicians to protect, restore, and manage aquatic resources to meet park needs and mandates. The incumbent will be expected to increase independent program responsibilities as time progresses, ensuring they are adequately prepared for the responsibility of the position at the full performance level.
Duties will be developmental in nature when filled below the full performance level.
Help
Promotion Potential: Promotion to the full performance level is neither guaranteed nor implied and will be based solely on your ability to satisfactorily perform the work of the position, existing work at the higher grade level, and recommendation by the position's supervisor.
Physical Demands: The position may require strenuous physical activity including periods of standing, walking, climbing, and lifting and carrying heavy objects. Some activities will occur in physically dangerous areas or settings. The employee must be physically capable of carrying out strenuous fieldwork associated with sampling in streams, ponds, lakes, and wetlands, frequently under adverse weather conditions such as rain, snow, high humidity or excessive heat. Documentary research and report writing work is sedentary and requires the ability to concentrate and write for long periods of time.
Working Conditions: The incumbent will be stationed at Crater Lake National Park, Oregon. Work is performed both indoors and outdoors in all types of weather. Assignments may be performed in potentially hazardous areas including steep slopes, rocky terrain, firelines, alpine environments, swamps, deserts, and forests. Flying in fixed-wing aircraft and helicopters is possible. Will be required to operate small watercraft and electrofishing equipment. With appropriate training, the incumbent may participate in SCUBA diving activities to accomplish resource management objectives.
Telework: The National Park Service has determined that the duties of this position are suitable for telework and the selectee may be allowed to telework with supervisor approval.
