NATURE OF WORK:
An MSA Maintenance Senior Technician – Carpentry Specialty is the advanced level of skilled maintenance work with primary responsibility for performing journey-level and advanced carpentry work in support of Maryland Stadium Authority facilities and operations.
An employee in this classification performs skilled construction, installation, alteration, preventive maintenance, and repair of buildings, structures, fixtures, furnishings, doors, walls, ceilings, flooring, cabinetry, and other facility components. The employee is expected to possess substantial knowledge and demonstrated skill in the carpentry trade and to independently assess carpentry-related
problems, determine appropriate methods of repair or construction, estimate materials and labor requirements, and complete assignments in accordance with accepted trade practices.
While carpentry is the primary trade specialty of this position, the employee is also expected to possess general building maintenance knowledge and sufficient skills in other trades to perform routine and minor maintenance and repair assignments involving plumbing, electrical, painting, masonry, mechanical equipment, and other facility systems when such work does not require a specialized license or certification.
Work at this level is distinguished from lower-level maintenance classifications by the complexity of assignments, advanced carpentry skills required, degree of independent judgment exercised, and responsibility for diagnosing and resolving difficult building maintenance and construction problems.
Employees do not normally exercise formal supervisory responsibility. However, employees may provide technical guidance and direction to less experienced skilled or unskilled maintenance employees, assist with coordinating projects and work assignments, and serve as a technical resource
on carpentry-related projects.
Employees receive general direction* from a Facilities Assistant Manager or other designated higher-level maintenance staff. Employees may be required to work in areas of extreme heat or cold; work from ladders, lifts, or scaffolding; work in areas of extreme heat or cold; and lift, carry, move, and position building materials, tools, furniture, equipment, and other heavy objects.
