As skills and knowledge are developed, incumbents are expected to perform increasingly responsible and difficult assignments.
Incumbents may advance to Forensic Systems Analyst II after demonstrating the ability to perform the full journey level duties of the class. The Forensic Systems Analyst II is the journey level classification responsible for performing the full range and scope of work. Incumbents work under general supervision and are expected to be proficient in performing a variety of responsible and difficult digital evidence recovery and analysis functions.
This class is distinguished from other information technology classes in that the primary emphasis of this class is processing a wide variety of computer systems and other digital media in order to assist in the gathering of evidence for the apprehension and prosecution of persons/entities, suspected of violating the laws during criminal investigations. This class presents and interprets the results of their findings to law enforcement officers and/or attorneys, prepares materials for presentation in court, and may appear as an expert witness in court.
