Salary: $85,241 Job Summary
The Operations Analyst supports the Juvenile Probation Department's efforts to strengthen the quality, consistency, and effectiveness of services provided to court-involved youth and families. Working within the Organizational Performance Division, the position applies knowledge of evidence-based practices, quality improvement, and implementation fidelity to support effective practice and positive youth outcomes.
Based on Department needs and assigned responsibilities, the Operations Analyst may deliver structured evidence-based interventions directly to youth; conduct quality assurance and fidelity reviews of Department practices and services; provide coaching, consultation, and technical assistance to staff and supervisors; and/or support continuous quality improvement activities across operational divisions.
When assigned to evidence-based programming, the Operations Analyst facilitates individual and group-based cognitive-behavioral interventions designed to strengthen problem-solving, decision-making, emotional regulation, social skills, cognitive restructuring, and other skills associated with positive behavior change and reduced justice-system involvement. The position engages youth using developmentally appropriate, strengths-based approaches while maintaining fidelity to established evidence-based curricula and practice standards.
When assigned to quality assurance and fidelity functions, the Operations Analyst conducts structured reviews and analyses to assess practice quality, adherence to Department standards and evidence-based practices, implementation fidelity, and the effectiveness and consistency of service delivery.

The Operations Analyst works across organizational divisions and collaborates with probation officers, supervisors, Department leadership, families, community partners, and service providers as appropriate to the assigned function. The position may serve as a subject matter resource, practitioner, reviewer, coach, or internal consultant and is expected to perform assigned responsibilities with a high degree of professional judgment, objectivity, and independence.
The position does not carry a probation caseload or exercise probation supervision or enforcement authority.
