NYBG Job Description
Title
Reports to
Planning, Design and Construction Project Manager - Engineering
Vice President- Capital Planning, Construction & Operations & CSO, AVP for Capital Planning and Senior Project Manager
Position Summary:
The Planning, Design and Construction Project Manager - Engineering manages capital projects from concept through completion with a primary focus on integrating climate resilience, decarbonization, and sustainable design practices into the planning, design, and construction of architecture, engineering and infrastructure projects. This role ensures that projects advance institutional climate action goals while meeting established standards for scope, schedule, budget, quality, and safety.
The position combines core capital project management responsibilities with technical leadership in low-carbon, resilient, and durable infrastructure delivery. The Project Manager - Engineering works closely with internal stakeholders, consultants, contractors, and leadership to translate climate and infrastructure performance objectives into buildable, measurable project outcomes.
Specific Duties & Responsibilities:
Deliver capital projects on time and within budget, while advancing institutional climate action, resilience planning, and sustainable infrastructure objectives.
Serve as a technical integrator for climate resilience, decarbonization, and infrastructure performance across assigned projects and the broader capital portfolio.
Support Senior Project Managers, Assistant Vice Presidents, and the Vice President in advancing organizational capital and sustainability priorities.
Project Management
  • Manage all phases of capital projects, including planning, programming, design, bidding, budgeting, scheduling, construction administration, and closeout.

  • Embed sustainable design, climate resilience, low-carbon, and infrastructure performance strategies into project scopes, schedules, and deliverables at each phase.

  • Review design and construction documents to ensure alignment with decarbonization pathways, resilience strategies, infrastructure standards, and applicable codes.
  • Conduct on-site walkthroughs during construction to verify implementation of climate-resilient design measures, electrification strategies, and sustainable infrastructure systems.

  • Maintain project documentation, schedules, budgets, and reporting in accordance with institutional standards.

Consultant and Contractor Coordination
  • Coordinate multidisciplinary consultant and contractor teams, including architects, engineers, construction managers, and specialists in energy, carbon, envelope systems, civil works, landscape, utilities, and infrastructure resilience.

  • Manage consultant and contractor performance with emphasis on low-carbon materials, electrification, infrastructure durability, climate adaptation measures, commissioning, and closeout documentation.

  • Facilitate coordination among internal stakeholders, regulatory agencies, and external partners to ensure project alignment with technical, operational, and sustainability goals.

Climate Resilience, Decarbonization, and Infrastructure Leadership
  • Translate institutional climate action and sustainability goals into project-specific performance criteria, scopes of work, and technical requirements consistent with New York-based mandates for greenhouse-gas reduction, energy efficiency, and building electrification.

  • Advance electrification, energy efficiency, and low-carbon infrastructure solutions across building and site systems to support compliance with applicable energy, carbon, and emissions-performance standards.

  • Incorporate climate-hazard mitigation and adaptation strategies addressing flooding, heat, extreme weather, and infrastructure vulnerability, consistent with state and city resilience planning frameworks.

  • Evaluate building and infrastructure systems for climate risk, lifecycle cost, durability, maintainability, and long-term operational resilience in accordance with public-sector capital planning, asset management, and risk-management policies.

Analysis, Metrics, and Continuous Improvement
  • Track and evaluate project-level metrics related to energy use, carbon emissions, resilience performance, infrastructure lifecycle, and operational impacts.

  • Support post-project evaluations to assess climate resilience and decarbonization outcomes and inform continuous improvement.

  • Contribute to the development and refinement of institutional standards, guidelines, and tools for resilient, low-carbon capital infrastructure.

Other related duties as applicable.
Qualifications:
  • Professional degree in Engineering, with a focus on Sustainability, or a related infrastructure-focused field.

  • Professional Licensure and LEED Certification required.

  • Advanced degree preferred.

Experience must include the monitoring and supervision of multi-disciplinary consultant design and/or construction management teams, inclusive of construction document preparation, pre-construction reviews, design and construction scheduling, construction administration, and post-construction tasks.

  • Demonstrated experience integrating climate resilience, decarbonization, electrification, or infrastructure performance strategies into capital projects.

  • Experience working in complex institutional or public-facing environments with multiple stakeholders.

  • Ability to read and interpret plans, specifications, bid documents and knowledge of Design and Construction Contracting.

  • Thorough understanding of Construction Practices with construction phase experience including the submittal, shop drawing review process and on-site inspections.

  • Strong project management, organizational, and communication skills.

  • Ability to translate complex technical and climate objectives into actionable project requirements.

  • Strong time management skills with the ability to prioritize tasks, manage multiple projects and deadlines with minimal supervision.

  • Strong computer skills- AutoCAD, Microsoft Office Suite (Word, Excel, PowerPoint), Bluebeam, and Adobe Acrobat software.
