  • Incorporate projects from the Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) and Long-Range Plan (LRP) into future-year modeling scenarios
  • Assist with demographic and socioeconomic forecasting to support agency planning initiatives
  • Develop innovative approaches to improve the modeling of multi-modal transportation options, such as transit, bicycling and walking.

Additional Responsibilities

  • Attend and participate in internal and external meetings
  • Present work products to NOACA councils, subcommittees, and the Board of Directors
  • Respond to internal and external data requests
  • Support consultant selection processes and proposal evaluations
  • Contribute to special projects and cross-division initiatives

  • Contributing to a culture of trust, learning, recognition, and wellbeing

You will be part of a team that values expertise and people—where your work matters and your growth is supported.

QUALIFICATIONS:

Required

  • Bachelor's degree in urban planning, civil engineering, or a related field, plus two years of relevant experience
  • Authorization to work in the United States
