Hi Tom: can you please forward
this to the TRB Data related committees? Thanks!

Dear colleagues:
The Research and Innovation Technology Administration (RITA)
is looking for a highly talented Transportation Specialist with a passion for
transportation data and analysis to join the Intelligent Transportation Systems
Joint Program Office (ITS JPO) as the IntelliDrive Data and Weather Program
Manager. This is an opportunity to work on one of the most exciting multimodal
programs at the U.S. Department of Transportation (U.S. DOT). Located at
the U.S. DOT headquarters in Washington, DC, the ITS JPO manages, coordinates
and supports research programs focused on applying advanced technologies to
transform the performance of our nation's surface transportation system.
Here is a link to the vacancy announcement which closes on
Tuesday, September 13, 2010:
We are seeking a talented transportation leader who can work
with all levels of the ITS JPO staff, high-ranking officials and others outside
the agency to explore the innovative methods of data collection and use of
advanced data applications in the transportation environment. A
self-starter with expert knowledge of data capture and proven program
management principles is a must. Strong coordination and leadership
capabilities are needed to be successful in this important role. A mix of
strong creativity combined with institutional and technical knowledge is a
must. Ability to identify strategic program needs and develop objectives
based on Administration and U.S. DOT policy, Congressional direction, and
knowledge gained through the national ITS program planning process is required.
The ITS-JPO IntelliDrive Data and Weather Program Manager
will manage multimodal programs such as congestion relief, road weather
management, and data capture and data management applications to provide
technical leadership for state-of-practice and state-of-the-art data collection
methods for continuous improvement of our nation’s surface transportation
system.
If you know someone interested in this Washington, DC based
position that has the experience and proven results in the above requested
areas, please encourage them to apply under the attached vacancy
announcement. We are looking for a diverse pool of qualified candidates.
Please keep in mind that the new hiring reforms recently
announced by President Obama will shorten the hiring timeline and will
eliminate essay-style questions during the initial application submission.
Therefore please spread the word about this exciting opportunity and encourage
anyone interested to apply quickly. Thanks for your support and best regards,
Peter Appel
Administrator

Technology Administration
