The City of Berkeley invites you to apply for the position of Equipment Superintendent in the Public Works Department—a critical leadership role at the center of the City’s fleet strategy and sustainability goals. Working in close partnership with the Public Works Operations Manager, you will help shape the future of Berkeley’s diverse and highly visible municipal fleet.

The Equipment Maintenance Division includes 14 full-time technicians and two supervisors, and the Equipment Superintendent is directly accountable for ensuring safe, efficient, and fiscally responsible fleet operations. This role offers the opportunity to lead and innovate while managing two repair facilities and overseeing a fleet of more than 570 vehicles and equipment assets, including light-duty vehicles, on- and off-road heavy equipment, refuse trucks, generators, and emergency vehicles.

A key focus of this position is advancing the City’s fleet electrification and clean transportation initiatives, including navigating California’s Advanced Clean Fleets regulations and collaborating with Engineering to plan and build the required charging infrastructure. You will work closely with user departments—primarily Police, Fire, Parks, Public Works, and the Zero Waste Division—to ensure the right equipment is procured, maintained, and deployed, while providing clear and actionable reporting on fleet condition, utilization, and lifecycle costs.

The ideal candidate is a forward-thinking strategist who combines technical expertise with strong business judgment. You understand how to articulate the long-term financial value of assets, balancing upfront capital investment with operational savings. You are skilled at using a Fleet Information Management System, leveraging telematics and data analytics to monitor utilization, right-size the fleet, reduce waste, and maximize efficiency. You know when to perform repairs in-house and when to partner with outside vendors—all while maintaining a high standard of customer service and supporting a skilled, safety-focused workforce.

If you’re energized by complex systems, emerging technology, and the chance to make a measurable impact on a progressive city’s operations and sustainability goals, this is an exceptional opportunity to lead.
