The Division of Transportation Planning and Management (TPM) is responsible for the safe, efficient, and environmentally responsible movement of people and goods on the City's streets, supporting the larger goals of economic and social vitality for people living, working, and doing business in New York City. The Division's responsibilities include planning, street design, technical analysis, signs, transit development, freight mobility and markings to ensure the safety of motor vehicle occupants, pedestrians and cyclists. Within TPM, the Traffic Engineering & Planning (TEP) unit is responsible for conducting, reviewing, and approving traffic engineering analysis and methodologies related to every aspect of traffic operations, safety, and transportation planning from curb cuts to area-wide studies. The Mayoral Administration recently released the Streamlining Procedures to Expedite Equitable Development ("SPEED") report with reforms to make City processes faster and more accountable across four stages of development: environmental review and planning; pre-development and financing; permitting and approvals; and marketing and lease-up. To help make the planning, permitting and approval processes faster, TEP seeks to hire an experienced, motivated candidate to serve as Civil Engineer 2 as an Environmental Review Borough Lead working within a multi-disciplinary team dedicated to improving transportation in the city through various transportation projects. This leadership position will play a critical role in managing complex transportation and environmental review projects, supervising technical staff, coordinating interagency efforts, and ensuring the timely delivery of high-quality analyses that support the City's development and mobility goals.
