Technical Manager

Summary The Technical Manager provides technical and design leadership across Clearway’s preconstruction pursuits and major projects. The role integrates design, engineering, constructability, scheduling, temporary works, means and methods, risk, and proposal strategy to develop solutions that are safe, practical, compliant, competitive, and executable.

Working across the full pursuit and delivery lifecycle, the Technical Manager coordinates Clearway’s construction, estimating, scheduling, proposal, commercial, and operations teams with designers, consultants, subcontractors, suppliers, owners, and project partners. The position supports all Alternative Procurements and Major Projects, including DB, PDB, CMAR, Alliance, CMGC, P3, IPD, and other collaborative delivery models.

The Technical Manager will report directly to the Vice‑President, Alternative Procurement.

Hours of Operations: 8:00 am to 5:00 pm

As a heavy civil contractor, Clearway’s workforce requirements can fluctuate with project schedules and anticipated contract awards. We are currently seeking skilled candidates to join our team and encourage qualified applicants to submit their application.

Essential Duties & Responsibilities

Lead technical and design management for RFQs, RFPs, tenders, preconstruction assignments, and active major projects across Clearway’s alternative delivery portfolio.

Review procurement and contract documents, drawings, specifications, geotechnical information, reference concepts, utility and environmental reports, and other technical inputs to identify requirements, interfaces, constraints, risks, and opportunities.

Establish and manage design schedules, deliverable matrices, responsibility matrices, comment logs, technical action trackers, design reviews, and submission controls.

Coordinate designers and technical partners to align design development with construction methodology, staging, schedule, budget, procurement strategy, commercial requirements, and contractual obligations.

Lead constructability reviews addressing sequencing, access, logistics, traffic staging, utilities, temporary works, shoring, excavation support, dewatering, bypass pumping, lifting, formwork, falsework, safety, and field execution.

Develop and validate value engineering and innovation opportunities that reduce cost, shorten schedule, improve safety or asset performance, simplify construction, or reduce delivery risk.

Work with estimating, scheduling, operations, project management, and field leadership to validate methodologies, quantities, production rates, durations, resources, temporary works, subcontractor solutions, and overall feasibility.

Develop and review pursuit and project schedules, phasing and sequencing plans, critical‑path logic, work windows, permitting and procurement dependencies, access plans, site logistics, utility relocation strategies, and recovery approaches.

Translate construction strategies into clear technical narratives, diagrams, process maps, staging plans, schedule visuals, responsibility matrices, and means‑and‑methods illustrations.

Lead or support proposal content covering project understanding, technical approach, design management, construction methodology, risk, quality, schedule, staging, logistics, sustainability, innovation, and value engineering.

Ensure technical responses are compliant, differentiated, coordinated, and consistent with the estimate, schedule, risk allocation, contractual requirements, and commercial strategy.

Participate in strategy sessions, technical and constructability workshops, proposal and red‑team reviews, interview preparation, presentations, and client‑facing discussions.

Identify and manage technical risks and opportunities involving design, geotechnical conditions, utilities, permits, environmental constraints, third parties, temporary works, schedule, and construction methodology.

Develop risk and opportunity registers, assumptions and exclusions, design issue logs, technical decision records, mitigation plans, and recommendations for escalation and resolution.

Confirm technical solutions address health and safety, quality, environmental obligations, applicable codes and standards, contractual requirements, and relevant owner and jurisdictional requirements.

Build productive relationships with clients, owners, designers, consultants, project partners, subcontractors, suppliers, utilities, municipalities, regulators, and other stakeholders.

Provide technical guidance and mentorship and strengthen Clearway’s technical capability through reusable content, graphics, checklists, templates, less
