Cover Letter
Dear Hiring Panel, With over 10 years of service at St. Johns County Fire Rescue, I bring a comprehensive understanding of firefighter safety from operations, logistics support, and fire prevention. For eight years, I served in active operations where I relied daily on properly maintained PPE and SCBA equipment. That experience gives me firsthand knowledge of how critical equipment reliability is to firefighter survivability. During my light-duty assignment in Logistics, I assisted with tracking contaminated structural gear, issuing loaner equipment, coordinating repairs, and maintaining documentation that transitioned into PSTrax. I also participated in annual SCBA facepiece fit testing and supported a department-wide PPE rollout to ensure each firefighter received two full sets of Lion structural gear. Most recently, I transitioned into the Prevention Division, where I was promoted from Periodic Inspector to Licensing Inspector within one month. This role strengthened my documentation discipline, NFPA code application, and attention to detail. I am committed to ensuring every firefighter has properly maintained, documented, and reliable equipment when it matters most. Respectfully, Jennifer Martinez
