Title: Senior Application Developer

Location: New York, NY

Duration: 5 Months

Visa: No Restrictions as long as eligible to work

Project Scope:

• New York City streets undergo deterioration due to streets cuts, potholes, freezing/thawing moisture below the roadway, and overweight vehicular traffic.
• While minor repairs are performed to address defects such as potholes, cave-ins, and wear & tears, the condition of the roadway will gradually deteriorate past the repairable extent of minor fixes.
• Street resurfacing projects are undertaken to remove and replace two inches of the topmost layer of asphalt from a roadway.
• Dependent on the condition of the roadway, a resurfacing project may be initiated to improve and maintain the quality of the streets.
• Every resurfacing season starts with identifying the street blocks and intersections where resurfacing is required, and the categorization of the resurfacing type, to setup work orders for the crew to plan and perform the work.
• The Resurfacing Estimation Management project will categorize the locations to identify project types, estimate the work, and track crew, vehicles and materials needed for each work order type. The estimates will be compared with actuals when the work is completed, the work progress will be visually indicated on a GIS map.
