Nature of Work

The City of Everett is accepting applications on an open/competitive basis for the Civil Service examination process for SYSTEM ANALYST II.

There is currently one position open with an emphasis on supporting technology systems support specific to the Everett Municipal Court, including E-filing and electronic case management systems. In addition, the City’s upcoming photo enforcement project will require working with Administrative Office of the Courts to integrate that program with the Judicial Information System (JIS) the court currently uses and the new case management system once online. The applications being added to digitize these processes will require an IT System Analyst II to implement and maintain into the future.
