<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:13.0pt;font-family:"Segoe UI",sans-serif">I've recently taken a new Program Management position in ODOT-TSO (Transportation Safety Office) and we will be recruiting for a new Evaluation and Data Analyst (EDA). We
would like to elevate the position from an OPA1 to an OPA2 or possibly and OPA3.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b><span style="font-size:13.0pt;font-family:"Segoe UI",sans-serif">I am seeking PD description duties for OPA2 or OPA3 data analysts’ positions as they relate to research and data analysis</span></b><span style="font-size:13.0pt;font-family:"Segoe UI",sans-serif">
as we are finding it difficult to work from scratch.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:13.0pt;font-family:"Segoe UI",sans-serif">This position will work closely with ODOT CAR (Crash Analysis Reporting) Unit. TSO (Transportation Safety Office) and is possibly their largest customer of crash data. They
may also work closely with the ODOT Enterprise Data Warehouse with ODOT Delivery and Operations Division.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:13.0pt;font-family:"Segoe UI",sans-serif">The new and improved EDA may need to know more about querying data, coding, writing code, data systems, data analysis, preparing reports in software like PowerBI, Tableau
(and the like), Crystal reporting, SSRS, SQL Server Management Studio or AQT more than excel and pivot tables, understand federal law requirements for how funding should be spent, and definitely be able to heard cats. I have attached the original OP1 position

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif;color:#333333;background:white">2 This is the second of a four-level professional series. Employees interpret complex regulations, and adapt or design
new policies and procedures. At this level, the employee cannot easily analyze problems due to variations in the administrative processes. Work affects the primary operations and programs at different organizational levels or geographical locations within
the agency.</span><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif;color:#333333"><br>
<br>
<span style="background:white">Two primary factors distinguish the work of the Operations and Policy Analyst 2 from the lower level: 1) The need to adapt existing methods and policies to effectively do the work, rather than applying accepted methods; AND 2)
The work affects various levels or geographical locations within the agency, rather than individual work units within an operating division or program.</span><br>
<br>
<span style="background:white">The Operations and Policy Analyst 2 is distinguished from the next higher level by the limited range of analytical methods, and the increased level of available guidance. The Operations and Policy Analyst 3 requires analysis of
interrelated issues of substantive mission-oriented programs; and work affects programs throughout an agency, or a regional structure of equivalent scope. These features further distinguish the two levels.<o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif;color:#333333;background:white">3 This is the third of a four-level professional series. At this level, work is complicated by the need to deal with
subjective concepts such as value judgments; or work is complicated by the need to develop data that is currently unavailable. The employee takes into account and gives weight to uncertainties about the data and other variables that affect long-range program
performance. Current operational measurements are typically ambiguous and susceptible to widely varying interpretations; research is complicated by conflicting operational or service goals and objectives.</span><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif;color:#333333"><br>
<br>
<span style="background:white">The Operations and Policy Analyst 3 is different from the lower levels because the work affects significant program operations for an agency or comparable regional structure. The lower classification levels have a lesser scope
and effect. The Operations and Policy Analyst 3 is further distinguished by the more complicated conceptual and analytical processes used to do the work.</span><br>
<br>
<span style="background:white">The work of this classification is distinguished from the next higher level by the scope and affect of the work, and the analytical complexity. The Operations and Policy Analyst 4 does work that strongly influences or cuts across
several state agencies, government jurisdictions or private industry. This is not the case for the Operations and Policy Analyst 3. The nature of the problems under study at the next higher classification level requires the analyst to develop new analytical
methods; and to consider the direct and in-direct long-range effects on the public, other state programs or private industry.</span></span><span style="font-size:10.0pt"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
