The City of Emeryville Public Works Department is looking to fill 1-3 intern positions beginning immediately. These are paid internships with pay linked to level of education. The positions are half time, meaning each one is funded for an average of 20 hours/week throughout the fiscal year; in practice, interns’ schedules can be flexible, with hours that vary based on academic or other obligations.
The three positions are all in Public Works, and duties can be fluid among the interns depending on department need, intern skills and abilities, and intern interest. In general, one intern is needed to focus on the engineering tasks listed below under Engineering, one is needed to focus on sustainability, climate action planning and tracking, and other environmental issues, and one is need to work on transportation-focused projects as described below.
Data management and GIS skills are useful in most of these tasks. Communication skills including writing for reports, grant applications, and public outreach are desirable.
