What You Will Do
- Operational & Closeout Governance: Track and accelerate capital project closeout milestones, ensuring vital engineering deliverables, warranties, and regulatory documentation transition smoothly from the field to asset-owner agencies.
- Engineering Records QA/QC: Audit, organize, and cross-reference critical construction submittals, change orders, payment documentation, and technical inspection reports for compliance and completeness.
- System & Process Optimization: Help modernize internal tracking dashboards and reporting tools, identifying bottlenecks and proposing smarter, automated workflows to keep projects on schedule.
- Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs): Collaborate with senior leadership to draft, refine, and standardize technical guidance and internal protocols that govern division-wide construction operations.
- Data Synthesis & Executive Briefings: Transform raw project data into clear, visual progress reports, milestone summaries, and executive trackers for the Deputy Director and senior leadership. Additionally, educational credentials must be from a U.S. Department of Education-recognized accredited institution. Credentials from foreign institutions require independent equivalency verification from an approved evaluation service. Submit job application as prompted. Do not apply via Employee Self-Service (ESS), e-mail, mail, or fax your resume to DDC directly. COLLEGE AIDE (ALL CITY DEPTS) - 10209
