Located in the Department of Public Works and Transportation - White Plains: Under general supervision, incumbents function as fully competent, licensed Professional Engineers in all conventional aspects of the area of assignment. An incumbent independently performs assignments with instructions as to the general results expected. On a project basis, the Senior Engineer plans and conducts work requiring judgment in the evaluation, selection, adaptation and modification of standard techniques, procedures and criteria. The incumbent serves as project leader in design work or as a resident engineer on major design or construction jobs concerned primarily with planning, inspection or testing of all mechanical installations. Senior Engineers give direction to, review and inspect the work of sub-professional engineers, construction coordinators, drafters, technicians and others. This level differs from the Associate Engineer in that the Associate is responsible for the administrative supervision of a unit, delegating project assignments, and performing code enforcement functions or overseeing code-compliant designs. This level differs from the Assistant Engineer in the complexity of design assignments, supervision of technical staff, and in the requirement of a license to practice as a Professional Engineer. Does related work as required.

Substitutions
A Master’s Degree in Mechanical Engineering may substitute for one year of the field and office experience in mechanical engineering. There is no substitute for the one year of experience in design of construction projects or the one year of experience in construction administration.
