Key skills for this role
Every road, bridge, and trail that connects the public to a national park, national forest, wildlife refuge, or military installation in the western United States starts with careful, behind-the-scenes coordination. Join the team that keeps those construction projects on schedule, on budget, and fully documented, supporting a federal highway program that makes some of the country's most remote and treasured public lands accessible to everyone.
You'll support the Construction Branch of the Federal Highway Administration's Western Federal Lands Highway Division (WFLHD), which funds and delivers the planning, design, and construction of public roads providing access to and through federal and tribal lands across Alaska, Washington, Oregon, Montana, Idaho, and parts of Wyoming. WFLHD coordinates this work with six federal land management partners, including the National Park Service, U.S. Forest Service, and Bureau of Land Management, to keep these routes safe and reliable for the public. Genex Systems has a track record of supporting WFLHD's Construction Branch in similar engineering operations roles, giving our technicians a real seat at the table on how these projects get built and closed out.
Maintain branch and project records and electronic files, including photocopying, scanning, distributing, reviewing, organizing, and tracking construction documents, plans, specifications, and related regulatory information.
Manage database entry and reporting using tools such as Microsoft Access, Excel, OneNote, and Oracle, pulling data together from field notes, monthly reports, lab reports, verbal updates, and other internal and external sources, and running reports as needed.
Route, distribute, and enter monthly contractor payment information into the branch's construction data management software, and track branch funding reconciliation reports.
Prepare and revise contract and construction report documents, and draft contract correspondence for Government signature.
