- Support project coordination, proposal development, and business growth initiatives.
- Bachelor’s degree in planning, Geography, Public Administration, Environmental Studies, Engineering, or a closely related field.
- 5+ years of experience in transportation, community, regional, or infrastructure planning, ideally supporting public agencies, municipalities, Tribal organizations, or DOT-related programs.
- Strong writing, communication, research, and organizational skills.
- Ability to manage multiple assignments, priorities, and deadlines.
- Interest in working directly with communities, stakeholders, and agency partners.
- Ability to travel to communities and project sites within Alaska as needed.
- Collaborative mindset, intellectual curiosity, and a willingness to take on new challenges.
- Commitment to improving mobility, safety, infrastructure, and quality of life in Alaska communities.
- Experience with GIS, mapping, data visualization, graphic design, or presentation tools.
- Experience with transportation safety plans, corridor studies, multimodal planning, community plans, or public engagement.
