🟢 Green — Ground-Scanning Technology Research Lead

Funtonetwork • New York City, NY

4d

About The Position

Lead the market and feasibility response for ground-scanning methods applicable to dense urban underground infrastructure. The RFI concerns a secure 3D data-sharing platform for built and natural underground assets, including water and sewer pipes, gas lines, electrical conduits, fiber-optic cables, and soil composition. Responses must address feasible sensing, data-integration, accuracy, security, and operating approaches without presenting the notice as an awarded implementation contract.

Requirements

• ground-scanning technology
• subsurface utility engineering technology
• feasibility studies
• public-sector RFI responses
• Experience producing defensible, role-specific documentation for public-sector or regulated enterprise projects.
• Ability to distinguish confirmed solicitation requirements from assumptions and identify clarifications before commitment.
• Strong written communication, collaboration, confidentiality, and deadline discipline.

Responsibilities

• Compare applicable ground-penetrating radar, electromagnetic, acoustic, LiDAR-adjacent, robotic, and other non-destructive sensing approaches for NYC conditions.
• Document achievable depth, resolution, positional accuracy, surface/access constraints, false-positive risks, safety considerations, and validation methods.
• Develop evidence-based RFI recommendations, assumptions, limitations, deployment scenarios, and questions for the 3D Underground program.
