Civil Engineer

You will serve as a Civil Engineer with the Bureau of Reclamation, Bay Delta Office responsible for developing and applying hydrologic and water-operations models to support planning and operational studies for the Central Valley Project and State Water Project. PRINCIPALES MISSIONS : Some of the major duties you will perform include but are not limited to the following: Develops and applies hydrologic and water-operations models (e.g., CalSim/WRIMS, CalLite) to support planning and operational studies for the Central Valley Project and State Water Project. Prepares and analyzes input datasets, conducts scenario and sensitivity analyses, and produces clear technical documentation of methods, assumptions, and results. Uses scripting tools and databases (e.g., Python, R, SQL) for data processing, post-processing, QA/QC, and results visualization. Coordinates with internal and external partners to ensure consistent model assumptions and data; participates in technical teams and responds to technical inquiries. Prepares technical memos, graphics, and briefings for engineers, hydrologists, managers, and stakeholders. Supports engineering and hydrologic evaluations of reservoir operations, conveyance systems, water quality/temperature considerations, and related water-resource issues. Duties at the GS-11 will be developmental in nature when filled below the full performance level. QUALIFICATIONS REQUISES : All qualifications must be met by the closing date of this announcement-11/24/2026-unless otherwise stated in this vacancy announcement. To receive credit for experience, your resume MUST state either "full-time" (or "40 hours a week") or "part-time" with the number of hours worked per week to ensure proper crediting of specialized experience. Failure to adequately provide information needed to determine number of hours worked in each position may result in that time not being credited when evaluating qualifying experience. For periods of time that reflect military service, the DD-214 or Statement of Service is sufficient to meet the full and/or part-time hours requirement as the service dates will be reflected. Minimum Qualification Requirements: To qualify for this position, you must meet the following minimum qualifications: Basic Educational Requirements: In addition to the specialized experience requirements for this position, you must meet at least one of the following: A. Degree: Bachelor's degree (or higher degree) in engineering.
