  • Ensure compliance with NYC codes and regulations (FDNY, DOB, Local Laws) and Hyatt safety standards
  • Respond to guest and operational needs with urgency, professionalism, and a service-minded approach
  • Assist in managing budgets, capital improvements, and vendor/contractor relationships
  • Uphold a culture of accountability, teamwork, and respect aligned with Hyatt values
  • Act as Director of Engineering in their absence
Qualifications:
  • 3-5+ years of engineering leadership experience, preferably in a full-service or lifestyle hotel
  • Experience working in a union environment strongly preferred
  • Strong technical knowledge of HVAC, electrical, plumbing, and life safety systems
  • Familiarity with New York City codes and compliance requirements
  • A proactive, hands-on leadership style with strong team engagement skills
  • Ability to balance operational demands with a high standard of design and guest experience
  • Strong organizational, communication, and problem-solving abilities
  • Flexible availability, including evenings, weekends, and holidays
  • Other duties as assigned
Preferred Certifications:
