Job Description

This candidate will serve as Senior Data Analyst in NYC DOT's Bike Share & Shared Mobility unit, which is responsible for planning and oversight of the Citi Bike program and other shared micro mobility services in New York City. Citi Bike is a public transportation service and a public-private partnership that is among the largest and most successful bike share systems in the world. The program is in the midst of a five-year expansion that will ultimately double the size of its previous service area and put more than 40,000 bicycles within a five-minute walk of half of NYC residents. Other shared micro mobility services in NYC include dock less e-scooter share, which will soon expand from the East Bronx into Eastern Queens, and e-moped share.

Under the direction of the Executive Director, this candidate will lead a team of data scientists/analysts and will perform research and analysis activities related to bike share and shared mobility that will inform current and future planning; conduct economic research and studies involving estimates and forecasts regarding transportation-share services; collect, classify, evaluate, and analyze data, develop predictive models to answer complex and nuanced questions about the programs and anticipate future needs and behavior of the systems; prepare reports and briefing materials based on databases that underlie the bike share and shared mobility systems; monitor vendor compliance with governmental regulations, DOT policies, and contract terms; establish and monitor best practices, policies, procedures and documentation around bike share and shared mobility data; plan, design, maintain, and support unit internal databases; communicate technical issues to technical and non-technical audiences; and perform related duties. This candidate will serve as the Bike Share & Shared Mobility unit's primary technical liaison to micro mobility vendors and data management providers.
