The Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) oversees housing standards across all 3.7 million homes in New York City.

As the nation’s largest municipal housing agency, HPD is responsible for building and preserving affordable housing, protecting tenants from harassment and displacement, and holding landlords accountable across the five boroughs. Under Commissioner Dina Levy and the Mamdani Administration, HPD is pursuing an ambitious housing agenda focused on the needs of New York’s tenants. With a broad set of tools including standards enforcement, tenant resources, and the creation of new affordable housing, HPD is committed to making New York City a more affordable place for renters and homeowners alike.

The Office of Housing Access and Stability (HAS) consists of the divisions of Housing Opportunities & Program Services, Tenant and Owner Resources, Housing Stability, Budget and Program Operations, and Program Policy and Innovation. Our mission of the office is to ensure fair, efficient, and transparent access to affordable housing. HAS provides subsidies, placement services, and tools that connect New Yorkers to affordable housing and ensures vulnerable households in subsidized housing have the support they need to be safely housed.

Housing Access is committed to expanding housing choices, affirmatively furthering fair housing, and stabilizing the financial health of buildings.

The Division of Housing Opportunity & Program Services ensures that HPD’s affordable housing is made available through fair, transparent, and accessible programming. Developers creating affordable housing are required to offer many types of units through an open lottery process on NYC Housing Connect and fill other units through a placement process for households in the City’s shelter system. Housing Opportunity & Program Services administers the housing lottery and homeless placements programs and crafts policy and procedures to ensure that these programs offer equal opportunity to all applicants and affirmatively further fair housing.

As the Data Analyst for the Homeless Placement Services (HPS) Unit within the Division of Housing Opportunity (DHO), you will support data management, reporting, performance metrics, and project intake activities for the unit, while also providing data and analytical support to the broader Division.

The position will play a key role in ensuring the accuracy, timeliness, and integrity of data used to monitor HPS operations and inform program and agency decision-making. The position will also serve as a cross-functional resource for project intake and onboarding, working with managing agents and internal staff to ensure that new projects and units are properly entered, inspected, and ready for lease-up and assignment.

The Data Analyst will support the development, maintenance, analysis, and reporting of data related to HPS operations and DHO priorities. The position will produce and maintain reports and performance metrics used by unit and division leadership to monitor workload, production, outcomes, and operational performance.

In addition, the position will support the project intake process, including entering new projects into the appropriate systems, serving as a liaison with managing agents, monitoring project readiness, and coordinating to ensure that required inspections and other prerequisites are completed before units are made available for lease-up and assignment to the HPS team.
