CITY OF SAN JOSE
San Jose, California, United States
Our diverse and inclusive workforce of more than 7,000 employees play a key role in the success of San José, the heart of the Silicon Valley. All City of San José employees work together as one team to make San José a vibrant, innovative, and desirable place to live and work. Visit here to learn more about our One Team Leadership Values and Expectations, including quality and excellent customer service and here to learn more about San José. About the Department This recruitment may be used to fill multiple positions in other divisions or departments. If you are interested in employment in this classification, you should apply to ensure you are considered for any additional opportunities that may utilize the applicants from this recruitment. The Department of Transportation (DOT) plans, develops, operates, and maintains transportation facilities, services, and related systems which contribute to the livability and economic health of the City. We comprise a team of more than 500 people ready to serve the needs of our residents to improve the efficiency and safety of San José streets. We are an energetic and innovative team that is improving transportation in the nation’s 13th largest city, while focusing on safety, sustainability, and active public life! The department has a “can do” attitude, a culture of continuous improvement, and is progressive in both leadership development and style. For more information about DOT, visit www.sanjoseca.gov/transportation . About the Division The Department of Transportation is currently seeking to fill multiple vacancies for the Division Manager position. Infrastructure Maintenance The Infrastructure Maintenance Division is responsible for maintaining the City’s 2,5 00 miles of streets and related infrastructure, including paved street surfaces, bridges, traffic signals, streetlights, signs, markings and striping, trees, sidewalks, and landscaping, as well as the public sanitary and storm sewer collection systems. Areas of focus include ensuring a safe workplace, building strong teams, expanding the use of technology, and enhancing analytical skills and ability. While many of the staff have ‘grown-up’ within the Division, the organization has been successful in attracting and assimilating new talent. Planning & Project Delivery The Planning & Project Delivery Division is responsible for planning, designing, and building the City’s transportation infrastructure, including complete streets (roadways, bikeways, sidewalks, street trees), transit facilities, and projects of regional and statewide significance. We undertake many projects ourselves and work very closely with partner departments and outside agencies. Areas of focus include safety, sustainability, racial and social equity, increased transportation options, and building strong teams. Position Duties This recruitment may be used to fill multiple positions in other divisions or departments. If you are interested in employment in this classification, you should apply to ensure you are considered for any additional opportunities that may utilize the applicants from this recruitment. Infrastructure Maintenance Increasing regulatory and legal pressure to reduce the number and severity of Sanitary Sewer Overflows (SSOs) that occur in the City each year has resulted in the development of a comprehensive multi-year strategic plan to completely evaluate and refocus DOT’s sanitary sewer maintenance activities. The Division Manager will solidify the improvements made so far, continue to implement the strategic plan, and directly lead and manage the ongoing engineering and maintenance activities needed to continue the sustained reduction of SSOs. This is a 24/7 operation with a large work force that is geographically dispersed and grouped by function. Similarly, increasing environmental requirements are changing how storm water runoff is being treated and released into the City’s waterways. San José is recognized as a leader in implementation of trash capture infrastructure and early adoption of green stormwater infrastructure. Additionally, the existing storm system is aging and planning efforts are underway in partnership with the Departments of Public Works and Environmental Services to modernize and increase the capacity of the storm system to better handle heavy storm periods and establish a sustainable master plan for capital improvement over time. The Division Manager will need to understand and plan for the impacts of these developments on DOT’s maintenance operations while continuing to ensure that the City remains safe during storm events. During heavy or prolonged storm events, managing the City’s storm “fighting” efforts will become the highest priority for the Division Manager. In light of these challenges and priorities, the Division Manager will have the opportunity to: Step into a classic organizational leadership role within the Division and provide strategic leadership for the program which includes a diverse staff of nearly 130 members performing engineering, sewer line cleaning, sewer pipe repair, pump station maintenance, sewer pipe video inspection, street sweeping, and 24/7 complaint response activities; Develop the next iteration of the Sanitary Sewer Maintenance Strategic Plan to continue the sustained reduction in the number and severity of SSOs; Continually monitor the performance of the sanitary sewer system to adjust existing maintenance strategies and develop new ones; Formulate and utilize business intelligence data to most effectively and efficiently manage and allocate available resources; Become the person most knowledgeable about Federal and State wastewater regulations and how they apply in San José; Coordinate DOT’s maintenance operations with our partnering departments - Environmental Services Department and the Department of Public Works - who respectively oversee the City’s storm and sanitary sewer funds and perform capital storm and sanitary system improvements; Participate in researching, testing, and implementing new information systems and other technologies including piloting the use of AI technologies; Initiate and facilitate continuous improvement and team building efforts across the sewer maintenance operations; Develop and enhance the skills and abilities of staff to take on greater levels of responsibility and achieve higher levels of individual and program-wide performance; Plan and manage the Department’s storm response and assist with emergency preparedness for catastrophic disasters. Three Division Managers and a Program Manager make up the Deputy Director’s senior leadership team, and each will have a role in managing the Division’s administrative duties as assigned by the Deputy Director, such as budget, human resources, and information technology. Planning & Project Delivery In service of the Department’s overall goals of safety, sustainability, and equity, the Division Manager represents the City on complex projects of regional importance. This role oversees a team of professionals working on many of the highest profile and most complex projects in the Department of Transportation. The Division Manager works with other agencies and departments to reconnect our communities by modernizing existing interchanges and building new crossings over highways; improve safety and mobility around railways and expressways; bring BART to Silicon Valley; extend light rail to East San José; and enhance existing transit, rail and highways (with the addition of features like soundwalls) that improve quality of life for our neighborhoods. The Division Manager will lead internal and external collaboration and communication. Internal partners include other parts of the Department of Transportation, as well as the City Manager’s Office; the City Attorney’s Office; Department of Public Works; Office of Economic Development; Planning, Building and Code Enforcement; Intergovernmental Relations; and our elected officials. Key external partners include Caltrans; the Valley Transportation Authority (VTA); Caltrain; the Metropolitan Transportation Commission (MTC); the California High-Speed Rail Authority (HSRA); Union Pacific; Bay Area Rapid Transit (BART); the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC); and federal partners (Federal Highway Administration, Federal Railroad Administration, and Federal Transit Administration). To accomplish these goals, the Division Manager will: Lead a high-functioning, engaged team who care about their work and our community; Incorporate City and departmental priorities into individual projects - for example, improve safety at and around regional facilities, particularly for vulnerable users; take racial and social equity into account such that changes to highways or rail/transit benefit the City’s most disadvantaged residents; and incorporate sustainability into project design and materials; Oversee work plan development, budgets, position requests, hiring processes, training, and development; Be responsible for strategic communications with partner departments, outside agencies, and elected officials, with guidance from the Deputy and/or Department Director; Initiate and facilitate continuous improvement and team building efforts across the regional projects team, with other parts of the Division, and with other parts of the Department; Develop and enhance the skills and abilities of staff to take on greater levels of responsibility and achieve higher levels of individual and program-wide performance; Participate in citywide and departmental priorities, like emergency preparation and response, to meet the needs of the community. Two Division Managers and one Principal Engineer make up the Deputy Director’s senior leadership team and are a critical part of the Department’s leadership and management structure.

About the Department This recruitment may be used to fill multiple positions in other divisions or departments. If you are interested in employment in this classification, you should apply to ensure you are considered for any additional opportunities that may utilize the applicants from this recruitment. The Department of Transportation (DOT) plans, develops, operates, and maintains transportation facilities, services, and related systems which contribute to the livability and economic health of the City. We comprise a team of more than 500 people ready to serve the needs of our residents to improve the efficiency and safety of San José streets. We are an energetic and innovative team that is improving transportation in the nation’s 13th largest city, while focusing on safety, sustainability, and active public life! The department has a “can do” attitude, a culture of continuous improvement, and is progressive in both leadership development and style. For more information about DOT, visit www.sanjoseca.gov/transportation . About the Division The Department of Transportation is currently seeking to fill multiple vacancies for the Division Manager position. Infrastructure Maintenance The Infrastructure Maintenance Division is responsible for maintaining the City’s 2,5 00 miles of streets and related infrastructure, including paved street surfaces, bridges, traffic signals, streetlights, signs, markings and striping, trees, sidewalks, and landscaping, as well as the public sanitary and storm sewer collection systems. Areas of focus include ensuring a safe workplace, building strong teams, expanding the use of technology, and enhancing analytical skills and ability. While many of the staff have ‘grown-up’ within the Division, the organization has been successful in attracting and assimilating new talent. Planning & Project Delivery The Planning & Project Delivery Division is responsible for planning, designing, and building the City’s transportation infrastructure, including complete streets (roadways, bikeways, sidewalks, street trees), transit facilities, and projects of regional and statewide significance. We undertake many projects ourselves and work very closely with partner departments and outside agencies. Areas of focus include safety, sustainability, racial and social equity, increased transportation options, and building strong teams. Position Duties This recruitment may be used to fill multiple positions in other divisions or departments. If you are interested in employment in this classification, you should apply to ensure you are considered for any additional opportunities that may utilize the applicants from this recruitment. Infrastructure Maintenance Increasing regulatory and legal pressure to reduce the number and severity of Sanitary Sewer Overflows (SSOs) that occur in the City each year has resulted in the development of a comprehensive multi-year strategic plan to completely evaluate and refocus DOT’s sanitary sewer maintenance activities. The Division Manager will solidify the improvements made so far, continue to implement the strategic plan, and directly lead and manage the ongoing engineering and maintenance activities needed to continue the sustained reduction of SSOs. This is a 24/7 operation with a large work force that is geographically dispersed and grouped by function. Similarly, increasing environmental requirements are changing how storm water runoff is being treated and released into the City’s waterways. San José is recognized as a leader in implementation of trash capture infrastructure and early adoption of green stormwater infrastructure. Additionally, the existing storm system is aging and planning efforts are underway in partnership with the Departments of Public Works and Environmental Services to modernize and increase the capacity of the storm system to better handle heavy storm periods and establish a sustainable master plan for capital improvement over time. The Division Manager will need to understand and plan for the impacts of these developments on DOT’s maintenance operations while continuing to ensure that the City remains safe during storm events. During heavy or prolonged storm events, managing the City’s storm “fighting” efforts will become the highest priority for the Division Manager. In light of these challenges and priorities, the Division Manager will have the opportunity to: Step into a classic organizational leadership role within the Division and provide strategic leadership for the program which includes a diverse staff of nearly 130 members performing engineering, sewer line cleaning, sewer pipe repair, pump station maintenance, sewer pipe video inspection, street sweeping, and 24/7 complaint response activities; Develop the next iteration of the Sanitary Sewer Maintenance Strategic Plan to continue the sustained reduction in the number and severity of SSOs; Continually monitor the performance of the sanitary sewer system to adjust existing maintenance strategies and develop new ones; Formulate and utilize business intelligence data to most effectively and efficiently manage and allocate available resources; Become the person most knowledgeable about Federal and State wastewater regulations and how they apply in San José; Coordinate DOT’s maintenance operations with our partnering departments - Environmental Services Department and the Department of Public Works - who respectively oversee the City’s storm and sanitary sewer funds and perform capital storm and sanitary system improvements; Participate in researching, testing, and implementing new information systems and other technologies including piloting the use of AI technologies; Initiate and facilitate continuous improvement and team building efforts across the sewer maintenance operations; Develop and enhance the skills and abilities of staff to take on greater levels of responsibility and achieve higher levels of individual and program-wide performance; Plan and manage the Department’s storm response and assist with emergency preparedness for catastrophic disasters. Three Division Managers and a Program Manager make up the Deputy Director’s senior leadership team, and each will have a role in managing the Division’s administrative duties as assigned by the Deputy Director, such as budget, human resources, and information technology. Planning & Project Delivery In service of the Department’s overall goals of safety, sustainability, and equity, the Division Manager represents the City on complex projects of regional importance. This role oversees a team of professionals working on many of the highest profile and most complex projects in the Department of Transportation. The Division Manager works with other agencies and departments to reconnect our communities by modernizing existing interchanges and building new crossings over highways; improve safety and mobility around railways and expressways; bring BART to Silicon Valley; extend light rail to East San José; and enhance existing transit, rail and highways (with the addition of features like soundwalls) that improve quality of life for our neighborhoods. The Division Manager will lead internal and external collaboration and communication. Internal partners include other parts of the Department of Transportation, as well as the City Manager’s Office; the City Attorney’s Office; Department of Public Works; Office of Economic Development; Planning, Building and Code Enforcement; Intergovernmental Relations; and our elected officials. Key external partners include Caltrans; the Valley Transportation Authority (VTA); Caltrain; the Metropolitan Transportation Commission (MTC); the California High-Speed Rail Authority (HSRA); Union Pacific; Bay Area Rapid Transit (BART); the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC); and federal partners (Federal Highway Administration, Federal Railroad Administration, and Federal Transit Administration). To accomplish these goals, the Division Manager will: Lead a high-functioning, engaged team who care about their work and our community; Incorporate City and departmental priorities into individual projects - for example, improve safety at and around regional facilities, particularly for vulnerable users; take racial and social equity into account such that changes to highways or rail/transit benefit the City’s most disadvantaged residents; and incorporate sustainability into project design and materials; Oversee work plan development, budgets, position requests, hiring processes, training, and development; Be responsible for strategic communications with partner departments, outside agencies, and elected officials, with guidance from the Deputy and/or Department Director; Initiate and facilitate continuous improvement and team building efforts across the regional projects team, with other parts of the Division, and with other parts of the Department; Develop and enhance the skills and abilities of staff to take on greater levels of responsibility and achieve higher levels of individual and program-wide performance; Participate in citywide and departmental priorities, like emergency preparation and response, to meet the needs of the community. Two Division Managers and one Principal Engineer make up the Deputy Director’s senior leadership team and are a critical part of the Department’s leadership and management structure.

Deliver results, including those in a work plan and budget approved by the Board.

Provide leadership and management of BAWSCA’s activities.
Communicate and work effectively with the Board.
Effectively engage with staff, legal counsel, and external consultants and advisors to leverage expertise and experience.
Engage member agencies to provide expertise and necessary input to BAWSCA including negotiating agreements among member agencies when needed and appropriate.

Ideal Candidate
The ideal candidate will have a wide-ranging set of skills and experiences. There is no one set path to this role, but it is clear what the role requires:
Negotiation : First, the role requires honed negotiation skills. The incumbent will be constantly negotiating the disparate and potentially conflicting interests of its members as well as with the SFPUC, which owns and manages the Regional Water System.
Perspective : Next, the ideal candidate must understand the significance of this role. Through its enabling legislation, BAWSCA is charged by the State to represent the collective water interests of its members and their water customers. Additionally, BAWSCA is responsible for ensuring the Regional Water System continues to meet the needs of its members and their water customers. Through formidable connections developed over time, BAWSCA brings its legislative power to bear to deliver critical results and meet these obligations.
Finance Expertise : Further, the ideal candidate will have significant finance expertise and, in general, be able to interpret highly complex data to make wide-ranging decisions. The CEO is expected to oversee management of BAWSCA’s existing revenue bonds and BAWSCA’s financial auditing of over $300M each year in water revenues paid by its member agencies to San Francisco for water supply purchased.

Experience in dealing with regional and Statewide issues is strongly preferred. BAWSCA’s political power to effectively meet the needs of its 1.8 million residents relies on garnering and using the influence built over the two decades since BAWSCA’s inception, its close and successful relationship with the State legislature, and its ability to bring to bear the influence of all 26 members and other interested stakeholders. The next BAWSCA CEO/GM must excel in diplomatic, clear, concise yet persuasive writing necessary for legislative advocacy, successful negotiations and public relations.
Commitment : Finally, BAWSCA is seeking a candidate who can commit to BAWSCA for the long haul. BAWSCA recognizes the benefit long-tenured staff and leadership bring to the results the agency can deliver for the water customer. The organization desires a strong leader, who has the professionalism, levelheadedness and above all, the patience, to see through multiyear projects.
ABOUT BAWSCA
Headquartered in San Mateo, CA, BAWSCA plays a vital and unique role in the well-being of over 1.8 million residents of the San Francisco Peninsula, South and East-Bay regions. Its mandate is to safeguard high-quality water for its 26 constituent member agencies and the water customers they serve by representing their collective wholesale water interests as a part of the San Francisco Hetch Hetchy Regional Water System (Regional Water System). It is unique that these 1.8 million residents are dependent on a system that is wholly owned and managed by the City and County of San Francisco, with no elected representation from the 26 constituent member agencies or their water customers. Thus, in order to ensure that its constituents are assured of a structurally safe, reliable and equitable water system, BAWSCA was formed.
BAWSCA’s outgoing CEO/GM is retiring. After a long tenure of strong leadership, including the development of a highly skilled and effective staff, BAWSCA is in search of an outstanding and highly experienced member of the water community to ensure BAWSCA’s continued success as a results-driven organization.
