Job Description:
Idaho Power is looking for two Generation Specialist Apprentices to join both our CJ Strike and Shoshone Falls plant crews. It’s an exciting time to work for Idaho Power. Our work plays a critical role in communities we serve across Idaho, and we’re working hard to provide our customers with safe, reliable, affordable energy they depend on.

The Generation Specialist Apprentice I or II position prepares future Generation Specialists to work independently and in a team environment with other Generation Specialists, performing preventative and corrective maintenance on the power facilities, buildings, hatcheries, roads, dams, waterways and other associated equipment for the safe and efficient operation of hydro-electric power plants. They ensure necessary generation by performing routine tasks and maintenance under normal and emergency conditions while maintaining FERC, NERC, WECC, OSHA, EPA, and other compliance regulations.
A Generation Specialist Apprentice II also works to perform job duties in a rotating on-call schedule. They respond to emergency conditions of power plant and associated equipment during and outside regular business hours and takes immediate actions to rectify abnormal conditions. They identify requirements for emergency operations and develops emergency contingency plans.
