This role is central to aligning project scopes with DEP's drainage and NYC resiliency initiatives while navigating constructability challenges, interagency dependencies, and long-term climate risks.

Evaluate constructability and sequencing challenges at the planning stage, including grade, acquisition, utility, and staging constraints.

Integrate future climate adaptation and mitigation considerations into project planning to support citywide sustainability and resiliency priorities.

Supervise staff in coordinating with NYC Department of Environmental Protection (DEP), NYC Department of Transportation (DOT), and other agencies to resolve scope-related and field issues, reducing delays and minimizing impacts to communities.

Maintain and expand FEP databases and performance metrics, including Key Performance Indicators (KPI), and tracking variables impacting project cost estimates and schedule development.

Represent the Director in their absence, providing leadership and decision-making support across FEP activities.

Qualifications

Strong background in capital project planning, engineering design and/or construction management with demonstrated experience addressing drainage, sewer, or roadway infrastructure challenges.

Experience conducting grading & drainage analysis and constructability review, including utility coordination and acquisition considerations.

Proven ability to navigate complex interagency processes, facilitate conflict resolution, and manage multi-stakeholder priorities.

Familiarity with climate resiliency planning, adaptation/mitigation frameworks, and integration of sustainability goals into scope development.

Supervisory experience with the ability to lead and mentor technical staff.
