Applying electronically via CalCareers is highly recommended. If submitting a hardcopy application (mail/drop-off), please send an email to Essam.Gad@arb.ca.gov to confirm submission.

The California Air Resources Board (CARB) is seeking a motivated, organized, and visionary leader to manage a multidisciplinary team of scientists and engineers. This team develops, maintains, and enhances CARB’s emissions inventories in support of State Implementation Plans (SIPs), community health initiatives, and regulatory development.

One key responsibility of this role is overseeing the Integrated Multipollutant Emissions Inventory System (IMPEI). IMPEI is a modern, comprehensive platform that integrates emissions data collection, management, and reporting tools. The section collects emissions data from a wide range of sources—including California’s 35 air districts—in compliance with the Criteria Pollutant and Air Toxics Reporting Regulation (CTR), Emission Inventory Criteria Guidelines (EICG), and federal requirements such as the Annual Emissions Reporting Requirements (AERR).

The section also develops and maintains data tools such as the Facility Search Tool, CEPAM Query Tool, and Pollution Mapping Tool. These tools provide communities, air districts, regulators, scientists, state agencies, and other stakeholders with accessible, reliable, and user-friendly emissions data, helping them understand what pollutants are released into the air and by whom.

This position requires close collaboration with CARB staff, other government agencies, academic researchers, and the public. Additional duties include writing technical reports and documentation, preparing briefing materials, and delivering presentations to staff, leadership, external partners, and the general public.
