    Job Description


    • In order to be considered for this position, candidates must be either serving permanently in the City Planner title, or be reachable on the civil service list, or eligible under the 55a program.


    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 roadway project planning, roadway design, technical analysis, maintenance of street signs, transit development, freight mobility, and roadway markings.

    TPM's Design & Construction (D&C) unit has professional engineering oversight for geometric design elements of NYC roadways.

    We draw on expertise and talent of Civil Engineers, Urban Designers, Planners, Asset Managers, Inspectors, Administrators, Analysts, and others to evolve and maintain the curb geometry and street plans for all NYC's 6300+ miles of roads, create and maintain official pavement marking and concrete island plans, and oversee the application and refurbishment of NYC's 250+ million linear feet of pavement markings (stripes, messages, colored surface treatments for bus/bike/plaza, etc.).

    D&C is currently seeking a skilled and motivated GIS-trained professional to join our team. As a GIS Specialist, the candidate will be instrumental in managing spatial data to support various projects and initiatives.

    Working collaboratively within the Asset Management team, the candidate will produce and maintain maps using ArcGIS, to provide crucial spatial insights to inform decision-making processes.

    The primary duties for this role will involve utilizing GIS technology to create and maintain a priority list for citywide markings refurbishment, ensuring equitable distribution within neighborhoods while upholding the integrity of the city's infrastructure.

    The selected candidate will geocode marking work orders and citizen complaints to accurately prioritize maintenance and improvement efforts, coordinate seasonal and weekly resurfacing lists with our Roadway Division, optimizing scheduling and resource allocation, and identifying and addressing work order conflicts to ensure seamless project execution.

    Additionally, the GIS Specialist will convert GIS data to Google Earth files to enhance visualization and accessibility and provide training to inspectors on Google Earth usage.

    Beyond these primary responsibilities, the selected candidate may also be tasked with performing further duties related to spatial analysis, data management, and project support, as required.


    This presents an exciting opportunity for an ambitious, experienced, and motivated professional to contribute to the improvement of safety on NYC streets.

    If you are a dedicated professional eager to make a meaningful impact on the safety and efficiency of NYC streets, we invite you to apply and become part of our mission-driven team.
