Career Opportunities at Caltrans District 9
Caltrans District 9 covers an expansive area of eastern California, covering Mono, Inyo, and eastern Kern counties. It is a gorgeous, nature-rich area that a perfect playground for hikers, fishers, rock climbers, nature photographers, and anyone else who enjoys the great outdoors. District 9 is home to the highest point in the contiguous United States (Mount Whitney) and the lowest point in North America (Badwater Basin in Death Valley). During the winter, the higher elevations of Mono and Inyo transform into snowy wonderlands where you can ski, snowboard, snowmobile, and more. If that sounds like your kind of place, and you're a driven, dedicated, result-oriented individual, there may be a great career opportunity waiting for you.
There are several different departments in District 9, including Engineering, Maintenance, Surveys, Administration, and more.
