  • Maintain utility conflict matrices, risk registers, agreement trackers, easement trackers, action logs, relocation schedules, and utility status reports.
  • Support preparation, technical review, negotiation, and execution of Utility Adjustment Agreements, prior-rights reviews, reimbursement determinations, and related utility owner documentation.
  • Review roadway, drainage, structures, MOT, ITS, tolling, lighting, signals, and utility plans to identify conflicts, clearance issues, constructability concerns, sequencing constraints, and approval risks.
  • Track schedule-critical utility items, including owner approvals, agreements, easements, permits, outage windows, long-lead materials, inspections, and pre-construction certifications.
  • Provide executive-level updates on utility risks, unresolved conflicts, owner response issues, schedule threats, cost exposure, and mitigation actions.

Minimum Requirements

  • Eight (8) + years of utility coordination, utility design management, utility relocation, transportation infrastructure, or heavy civil project delivery experience.
  • Experience supporting complex DOT highway projects, preferably Design-Build, Progressive Design-Build, P3, DBFOM, or other alternative delivery projects.
  • Working knowledge of utility conflict identification, SUE processes, test-hole data, utility mapping, plan review, field verification, and relocation sequencing.
  • Experience coordinating electric, gas, water, sewer, telecom, fiber, and municipal utility owners.
  • Ability to interpret civil plans, utility plans, cross sections, profiles, easement documents, utility standards, technical specifications, and construction sequencing documents.
  • Experience with utility conflict matrices, risk registers, agreement trackers, relocation schedules, cost estimates, and monthly status reporting.
  • Strong communication and leadership skills, with the ability to drive decisions across utility owners, agency representatives, design teams, construction teams, and project leadership.
  • Proficiency with Microsoft Office, Bluebeam, scheduling tools, CAD/GIS review platforms, and document control systems.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Prior TDOT or major DOT project experience.
  • Experience with utility agreements, prior-rights reviews, reimbursement determinations, easements, permits, outage coordination, and long-lead procurement.
  • Experience managing high-risk utilities, including electric transmission/distribution, gas, major water and sewer facilities, HDD crossings, telecom/fiber, and bridge-related utility impacts.
  • Familiarity with TDOT utility requirements, FHWA 23 CFR 645, utility certification processes, and DOT submittal procedures.
  • Professional Engineer license or experience coordinating with licensed engineers responsible for utility and civil design deliverables.
