Senior Capital Program Planning Analyst

We need to produce HTML fragment with sections: About the role? The posting includes a paragraph about MBTA vision etc. That could be "About the role" or maybe "About the MBTA". The instruction: use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). We should include sections only when posting has real specific content. We need to extract: - Job Summary: description of role. Could be under "About the role" or "Job Summary". Use

About the role

then

with that summary. - Duties & Responsibilities: list of duties. Use

Responsibilities

then

• each duty. - Minimum Requirements & Qualifications: includes education, experience, skills. Could be split into Requirements and Qualifications? The instruction says we can have Requirements and Qualifications sections. We have both "Minimum Requirements & Qualifications". Could combine into one section "Requirements" or separate. Probably better to have "Requirements" for education/experience, and "Qualifications" for skills? But we have both listed together. Might just make one section "Requirements" containing all. However instruction: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." So maybe combine into one "Requirements" section. - Preferred Experience & Skills: could be "Preferred Experience" or "Skills". We'll make a "Skills" section for preferred skills. - Job Conditions: includes many conditions like ability to commute, age, etc. Could be "Job Conditions" but not in the list of headings. The allowed headings are About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Job Conditions not listed, but we could maybe put under "Requirements"? However it's not exactly a requirement but condition. Might be better to omit if not matching allowed headings? The instruction: "use

  for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." It says e.g., implying those are examples, not exclusive list. But they say "include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it". So we can create other headings if needed, but better to stick to those examples. However Job Conditions could be considered part of "Requirements" or "Qualifications". Might be okay to include a "Job Conditions" section but not in list; risk of being considered not following instruction. Safer to incorporate relevant conditions into Requirements or Qualifications. - Substitutions: alternative education/experience combos. That's part of requirements. - Preferred Experience & Skills: we can put under "Skills" (preferred skills) and maybe also "Experience". Could make a "Preferred Experience" section but not in list. Could combine into "Skills". - Benefits: posting mentions intern/co-op benefits but not for this role. No benefits listed for this position. So we should not create Benefits section. - Pay, Schedule: not mentioned. So omit. Thus sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements (including minimum requirements, qualifications, substitutions), Skills (preferred experience & skills). Possibly also "Qualifications" separate? But we can combine. We need to preserve all substantive information, not invent or summarize away detail. Must not omit any duty, requirement, etc. We need to ensure we include all duties listed under Duties & Responsibilities. Let's extract them: From text: "Support the Capital Program Planning team in the development of the MBTA’s five-year CIP, working closely with the MassDOT/MBTA leadership team, capital asset owners, project managers, and other internal and external stakeholders." "Support the annual intake of new capital funding requests and assist in prioritizing projects for funding." "Perform analysis of available data as it relates to the MBTA’s capital program including but not limited to project schedule and milestones, financial data, asset data, and spatial data."

"Support the development and implementation of models or tools for estimating project costs and benefits, life cycle cost analysis, geospatial analysis, and asset performance." "Assist in the implementation of new technology solutions and business processes to improve the quality of analysis and inform decision-making regarding the MBTA’s capital program." "Assist in data visualization, mapping, and the design of public-facing materials to analyze capital investments and generate content related to the CIP." "Identify opportunities to improve MBTA policies and processes to maximize the impact of capital investment." "Perform all other duties and projects that may be assigned." "Additional responsibilities may include focus on one or more departments or locations. See applicable addendum for department or location specific functions." We need to keep all. Now Minimum Requirements & Qualifications: - Bachelor's degree in urban or regional planning, public policy, finance, economics, engineering, or a related role from an accredited institution. - Four (4) years of relevant experience in a planning, public policy, financial, engineering, quantitative analysis, and/or research-related role. - Effective organizational, analytical (quantitative and qualitative), writing, multi-tasking, and time management skills. - Advanced skill in MS Office, Excel, PowerPoint, and data visualizations applications. - Demonstrated ability to organize data, draw insights and conclusions from limited or imperfect information, and translate complex concepts and datasets into clear, digestible communications. - Demonstrated ability to communicate and present effectively to a diverse group of stakeholders, synthesize information, and translate complex topics into a format that is digestible and accessible. - Demonstrated ability to think strategically and solve problems. - Demonstrated ability to work effectively with a diverse workforce. - Demonstrated experience in data analysis, project and stakeholder management, and development of public-facing content. - Ability to learn new systems and tools with limited direction. - Ability to provide internal and external customers with courteous and professional experiences. - Ability to work effectively, independently, and as part of a diverse workforce team across a wide range of internal and external stakeholders (or supervise, if required). - Ability to uphold the rights and interests of the MBTA while building and maintaining effective relationships with employees and co-workers. Substitutions: - A high school diploma or GED with an additional seven (7) years of directly related experience substitutes for the bachelor’s degree requirement. - An associate’s degree from an accredited institution and an additional three (3) years of directly related experience substitutes for the bachelor’s degree requirement. - A master’s degree in a related subject substitutes for two (2) years of general experience. - A nationally recognized certification, or statewide/professional certification in a related field substitutes for one (1) year of experience. Preferred Experience & Skills: - Experience in a capital planning role at a federal, state, or local public agency. - Experience working with ArcGIS Suite, e-Builder, and/or Tableau. Job Conditions (we may incorporate into Requirements or Skills). Let's list them: - Ability to effectively read, comprehend, communicate, and respond to instructions, orders, signs, notices, inquiries, etc. in English. - Be at least eighteen (18) years of age, except if participating in an approved high school internship / co-op program. - Ability to commute to assigned work locations in the Boston, MA metro area, as required by the role. - Ability to provide internal and external customers with courteous and professional experiences. (duplicate) - Ability to work effectively, independently, and as part of a diverse workforce team (or supervise, if required). (duplicate) - Ability to uphold the rights and interests of the MBTA while building and maintaining effective relationships with employees and co-workers. (duplicate) - Ability to adhere to rules, regulations, collective bargaining agreements (if applicable), and policies of the MBTA, including the EEO, anti-discrimination, anti-harassment, and anti-retaliation policies. - Have a satisfactory work record for the two (2) years immediately prior to the closing date of this posting (unless if current student or recent graduate), including overall employment, job performance, discipline, and safety records (infractions and/or offenses occurring after the closing of the posting and before the filling of a vacancy may preclude a candidate from consideration for selection). - Ability to pass a Criminal Offender Record Information (CORI) check, comprehensive background screening, and / or medical Clinic screening, potentially including physical examination and drug and alcohol screenings. - Ability to work all shifts and / or locations assigned, directed, or necessary for this position, including (for some transit / operations roles) up to twenty-four (24) hours per day, seven (7) days per week as necessary to accommodate severe weather conditions, emergencies, or any other circumstances that may potentially impact service or the safety of service. - Intern / co-op staff must be enrolled full or part-time in an accredited educational program and maintain a cumulative GPA of at least 2.5 for the entire duration of the internship / co-op. Additionally, interns / co-ops must have valid work authorization and U.S. Social Security Number prior to starting pre-employment screenings / pre-boarding, working in their positions, and throughout the duration of their program. Many of these are generic boilerplate; but they are part of posting. The instruction says to remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. However these job conditions may be considered boilerplate? Some are specific like age, commute, CORI check, work schedule. They might be considered conditions. The instruction says to remove duplicated lines. We have duplicates (e.g., ability to provide courteous experiences appears twice). We should deduplicate. We need to decide whether to include a Job Conditions section. Since not in the example headings, maybe we incorporate into Requirements or Skills. But many are not exactly requirements (like age, commute, CORI). Could be considered "Requirements". We'll include them under Requirements section, but we need to avoid duplication and boilerplate like EEO etc. The instruction says remove EEO/equal-opportunity boilerplate. So we should omit the line about adhering to EEO etc. Also remove generic legal stuff. We should keep substantive conditions: ability to read/comprehend English, be at least 18 years old, ability to commute to Boston MA metro area, ability to work all shifts/locations as needed, ability to pass CORI/background check, satisfactory work record for past 2 years, ability to work all shifts up to 24/7 as needed, intern/co-op GPA etc (but that's for interns, not this role). Since this is not an intern/co-op role, we can omit intern-specific lines. Also we should remove duplicated lines. Now we need to produce HTML. Structure:

  About the role

  ...

  Responsibilities

  • ...
  ...

  Requirements

  • ...
  ...
  But we have many requirements; could be a mix of prose and list. The instruction: Use
  • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and

    for prose. So for requirements we should use list. Thus we need to convert each requirement into a list item. We need to include all substantive requirements: education, experience, skills, abilities, substitutions, conditions (age, English, commute, CORI, work record, shift work). Also maybe "Ability to provide internal and external customers with courteous and professional experiences" (though duplicated, we keep once). Also "Ability to work effectively, independently, and as part of a diverse workforce team". Also "Ability to uphold the rights and interests of the MBTA while building and maintaining effective relationships with employees and co-workers". Also "Ability to adhere to rules, regulations, collective bargaining agreements (if applicable), and policies of the MBTA" - but that's EEO boilerplate; we should remove per instruction. So omit that. Also "Ability to learn new systems and tools with limited direction." Keep. Also "Ability to
