Job Description

We are looking for a Senior Technical Project Manager to join our industry-leading in-house Bus Tech team and lead a vital investment in our on-board bus technology. Working side by side with MBTA and external stakeholders, you will lead a project to pilot off-the-shelf technology to automatically ticket motorists illegally blocking bus stops and lanes. Your work will play a pivotal role in enhancing bus service reliability and accessibility, directly supporting the MBTA’s commitment to improving transit equity and efficiency. This project aligns with the MBTA’s planned ~$200M investment over the next four years to upgrade bus stops and implement bus priority infrastructure. This initiative will put the MBTA on par with peer agencies such as New York City Transit, Los Angeles Metro, the Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority, and the Southeastern Pennsylvania Transportation Authority, which have taken steps to implement similar technology following legislation. You will lead the project in close collaboration with several MBTA teams: Transit Technology, Rider Tools, Bus Transformation, and the Regional Transit Planning team. This is a contract position with a fixed term of 18 months, offering an exciting opportunity to make a significant impact on the modernization of MBTA bus service. However, this position may be extended past the initial 18-month term.
