Project Summary: The USAID/OTI Colombia Transforma 3 Program seeks to demonstrate the transformative power of the Peace Accord implementation in Colombia. To achieve this goal, the program works to strengthen leadership and collaboration between the Government of Colombia (GOC) and key territorial actors to accelerate implementation of the Peace Accord. The program works directly with the GOC at national, departmental, and local levels, with local organizations, and directly with communities to pursue robust and collaborative Peace Accord implementation. This collaborative approach helps to demonstrate that an integrated, comprehensive approach to the conflict also provides solutions to some of the country's biggest problems, including rural insecurity, land formalization, and illicit economies. Implicit in this approach is support to the GOC in understanding the unique post-accord drivers of instability and support for piloting innovative solutions. The program operates primarily through an extensive portfolio of small, primarily in-kind grants, seizing on local windows of opportunity in pursuit of both individual regional objectives and broader program goals. The program operates from a main office in Bogotá, with significant field office presence across multiple Colombian departments. **Please note: Only Colombian citizens are eligible for this position** Position Summary: The Infrastructure Engineer will provide technical support to the Colombia Transforma Program team during the identification, structuring, implementation, and monitoring of construction activities and in the adaptation of small and medium infrastructure projects.
