The Technical Senior Project Engineer serves as a key technical liaison between procurement development and post-let project delivery for major alternative delivery and P3 projects. The position brings a construction and implementation perspective into the development of procurement documents and Technical Provisions to help ensure contractual requirements are clear, practical, enforceable, and aligned with how projects will ultimately be designed, constructed, managed, and administered.
Working across Pre-Let and Post-Let teams, the Technical Senior Project Engineer translates construction experience, lessons learned, project delivery needs, and subject matter expert input into effective contract requirements. The role coordinates closely with procurement, construction, design, quality, traffic, project controls, commercial/legal, environmental, utilities, right of way, and other technical disciplines to maintain continuity between procurement intent and post-award execution.
The primary focus of the position is the development, coordination, and continuous improvement of Technical Provisions associated with post-let process management.
Key Responsibilities
Technical Provision Development & Contract Requirements
- Serve as a primary contributor to the development, review, coordination, and maintenance of Project Management Requirements, Post-Let Quality Program Requirements, and Traffic Control Requirements.
- Lead or facilitate development of Technical Provision language by converting SME recommendations and project-delivery objectives into clear, coordinated, and implementable contractual requirements.
- Coordinate requirements across Technical Provisions to minimize gaps, conflicts, duplication, and ambiguity between contract sections.
- Review Technical Provisions for consistency with the anticipated construction approach, sequencing, schedule requirements, project controls, quality processes, and traffic-control implementation.
- Support development and review of RFQs, RFPs, Technical Provisions, addenda, and other procurement documents.
- Support review of proposer questions, Alternative Technical Concepts, and proposed procurement revisions where construction or Post-Let implementation considerations are relevant.
- Assist technical and procurement teams in evaluating how changes to one contractual requirement may affect related requirements elsewhere in the contract.
Post-Let Feedback & Continuous Improvement
- Establish and maintain a feedback loop between active Post-Let projects and future procurements.
- Engage Post-Let project managers, construction personnel, technical SMEs, and project controls staff to identify contractual requirements that are difficult to administer, unclear, overly prescriptive, or insufficient for effective project delivery.
- Evaluate recurring RFIs, submittal issues, nonconformance trends, schedule challenges, change issues, traffic-control concerns, and other project-delivery experiences for potential improvements to future contract requirements.
- Support development of standardized and scalable Technical Provision language appropriate to project type, delivery method, size, risk, and complexity.
- Maintain and communicate lessons learned and recommended revisions to support consistency across the alternative delivery/P3 program.
- Participate in periodic reviews of standard Technical Provisions and recommend updates based on actual project implementation.
Constructability, Quality, Schedule & Traffic Control
- Provide construction-focused input during development and review of project scope and contract requirements.
- Support constructability, construction-phasing, sequencing, and staging reviews during project development and procurement.
- Evaluate the interaction between construction activities, project schedules, quality requirements, traffic-control requirements, and contractual milestones.
- Coordinate with quality SMEs to ensure contract requirements appropriately establish expectations for quality management, inspection, testing, documentation, and acceptance.
- Coordinate with traffic and construction SMEs to ensure traffic-control requirements appropriately address anticipated construction phasing, work-zone implementation, lane closures, and project-specific constraints.
- Identify potential conflicts or unintended consequences between proposed technical requirements and anticipated means of project delivery.
Multidisciplinary Technical Coordination
- Coordinate technical inputs from design, construction, traffic, quality, environmental, utilities, right of way, geotechnical, project controls, procurement, commercial/legal, and other SMEs.
- Facilitate resolution of comments and conflicting technical requirements among disciplines.
- Support Phase Development Work Plans, project risk assessments, milestone reviews, and other program-level technical activities.
- Prepare technical summaries, decision documentation, and recommendations for procurement and program leadership.
- Support technical discussions associated with partnering, steering committee, procurement, and project coordination meetings.
- Maintain appropriate documentation and version control for Technical Provision development and revisions.
Preferred Qualifications
- Experience with Design-Build, P3, CM/GC, or other alternative delivery methods.
- Experience developing or administering RFQs, RFPs, Technical Provisions, specifications, or Design-Build contract documents.
- Experience in both Pre-Let procurement and Post-Let construction/project administration.
- Familiarity with GDOT standards, specifications, procedures, and alternative-delivery practices.
- Experience with construction scheduling, quality programs, work-zone traffic control, constructability reviews, and contract administration.
- Experience capturing construction lessons learned and incorporating them into future procurement or contract requirements.
