The Electronic Monitoring Technical Coordinator role is a blend of on-board vessel fieldwork, inventory and asset management, as well as some data review and reporting. The position will need to communicate effectively with fishing industry members, fishery agency staff, fishing industry support groups, and other members of the technical field services team. Responsibilities include installing and servicing CCTV cameras and computer components onboard commercial fishing vessels across Alaska, along with data review and coordination of project related tasks. A strong understanding of commercial fishing practices and Alaska’s groundfish fishing industry is a very strong asset.
This full-time position would ideally be suited for someone based out of Anchorage, but other locations within Alaska will also be considered as a “home base” for this position. The position does require extensive travel throughout Alaska for installations and service work during prescribed periods as needed.
