Ulteig is a North American infrastructure engineering, technical services, and consulting firm that delivers design, digital tools, and advisory services for critical lifeline sectors. The employee-owned company supports public and private clients on power and utility-scale renewable energy projects, transportation planning and infrastructure, and water sector work—offering engineering design, SCADA/EMS solutions, project-development services, and decision-support software to help manage complex, multidisciplinary projects.

📋 Description

• Own and evolve Ulteig’s national grants and funding strategy across funding strategy, grant development, and post‑award support, in close partnership with Transportation Market Directors, Regional Market Leaders, Client Team Leads (CTLs), and service line leaders. • Maintain a forward‑looking understanding of federal, state, and local transportation funding programs and align them with client capital programs and Ulteig’s service offerings. • Proactively identify short‑, mid‑, and long‑term funding opportunities across roadway, bridge, transit, safety, active transportation, resilience, and alternative delivery programs. • Serve as a senior advisor to clients on funding readiness, positioning, and long‑term funding strategy—not solely grant writing. • Partner with CTLs to integrate funding strategy into client plans, helping teams identify and advance 2–3 viable funding opportunities per client where appropriate. • Oversee and directly support the development of competitive grant applications from NOFO evaluation through submission. • Ensure grant narratives, technical content, and compliance packages reflect both program intent and client‑specific outcomes. • Support clients after award by collaborating with technical teams on grant agreement compliance, scope alignment, and reporting considerations. • Act as the internal hub for grants and funding knowledge, tools, and best practices across all three service areas.

🎯 Requirements

• Bachelor’s degree in Planning, Public Policy, Economics, Engineering, Political Science, or a related field required; master’s degree preferred. • 7–10+ years of experience in public‑sector transportation funding and/or financing leadership, with strong preference for experience at USDOT, FHWA, or a comparable federal or state transportation agency. • First‑hand understanding of the federal and state transportation funding landscape, including major discretionary, formula, and programmatic funding streams, policy intent, and implementation considerations. • Demonstrated familiarity with key public‑sector players and stakeholders (federal agencies, state DOTs, MPOs, local agencies, and partners) and how funding decisions are shaped and executed. • Proven ability to translate public‑sector funding knowledge into actionable funding strategies, competitive grant pursuits, and successful delivery outcomes. • Ability to operate as both a strategic advisor and hands‑on practitioner. • Strong client‑facing skills, including facilitation, consensus‑building, and executive‑level communication. • Experience leading or mentoring teams and contributing to scalable programs or practices. • Familiarity with CRM and data tools (e.g., D365, Salesforce, Power BI) and advanced proficiency with Microsoft Office. • Willingness to travel approximately 30% as needed.
