<b>Description</b>: The Conservation Program is responsible for the protection of biological resources on Stanford University lands for their academic value and in compliance with state and federal law. In accordance with these goals, the Conservation Program
implements Stanford’s Habitat Conservation Plan, drawn up for the protection of California tiger salamander, California red-legged frog, and an intergrade garter snake. Beyond the basic activities outlined in the Habitat Conservation Plan, the conservation
program proactively manages for native biodiversity across taxa. Some of our projects include native plant restoration, amphibian, reptile, fish and bird population monitoring, assays for wildlife diseases, and removal of invasive species.</p>
<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;margin:0in;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif">
As a member of the Conservation Program, the technician’s primary role is the execution of biological monitoring across Stanford University’s lands and conservation easements. This individual will be responsible for species monitoring, database management,
maintenance of field equipment, interaction with the public and collaborating entities, and basic tasks related to the promotion of biological conservation within a dynamic urban environment. A successful candidate will be responsible, prompt, positive, and
looking for ways to help our management of native ecosystems and federally listed species. The Conservation Technician will report to the Conservation Program Manager and the Conservation Program Coordinator.</p>
