Job description

Job Title: Research Technician
Department: Operations
Reports To: Project Manager
Work Location: Fort Worth, Texas
Landpoint is seeking an experienced Research Technician to support our licensed surveyors with the title and land-records research that underpins accurate survey deliverables. The role centers on online and public-records research of deeds, easements, and rights-of-way (ROW); the assembly of line lists; securing survey permission and property access from landowners; and the maintenance of consistent, well-organized folder deliverables.
The Research Technician serves as a research resource to the project management and RPLS/PLS teams - fielding research requests, sourcing and verifying records, and ensuring that every project file is complete, accurate, and ready for survey use. This is survey title research: the work directly informs boundary determinations, easement mapping, and ROW analysis performed by licensed professionals.
Key Responsibilities
Title & Land Records Research
  • Conduct online and public-records research of deeds, easements, and rights-of-way (ROW) to support survey projects.
  • Locate, retrieve, and organize source documents, including city plats, county records, and Department of Transportation (DOT) plats.
  • Verify the completeness and accuracy of retrieved records, cross-checking sources and escalating ambiguities or missing documents.

Line Lists & Landowner Coordination
  • Build and maintain accurate line lists from deed calls and supporting records for use by surveyors.
  • Secure survey permission and property access from landowners: use online research to identify current landowners and verify correct contact information, then call landowners to obtain access to the subject property, including gate codes, access times, and any site-specific instructions. Capture and track this information on the line list.

Utility Locates (811)
  • Submit utility locate (811 / One Call) requests, track ticket status, and maintain organized logs of requests and responses.

Files, Deliverables & Requests
  • Maintain consistent, standardized project folder structures and deliverables, so files are complete, named correctly, and ready for survey and PM use.
  • Intake and prioritize research requests from project managers and the RPLS/PLS team, communicating status and flagging gaps or discrepancies.
  • Compile research findings and supporting documentation into clear, organized packages that surveyors can rely on.

Required Qualifications
  • 2-5 years of experience as a research technician, landman, title abstractor, or in a comparable land/title research role.
  • Proven ability to research and interpret deeds, easements, and ROW documents.
  • Strong understanding of land-related documents and agreements (e.g., deeds, easements, rights-of-way, leases, and similar instruments).
  • Working knowledge of how to pull and navigate city plats, county records, DOT plats, and other public land records, online and via county and municipal sources.
  • Experience contacting landowners to obtain survey permission and property access, and comfort making outbound calls to do so.
  • Demonstrated ability to maintain detailed, accurate request and tracking logs.
  • Strong organizational skills and attention to detail, with a track record of maintaining consistent file and folder standards.
  • Clear written and verbal communication for coordinating with project managers, surveyors, and landowners.
  • Proficiency with standard office and document-management software.

Preferred Qualifications
  • Prior experience as a landman or title abstractor.
  • Direct experience supporting land surveying or survey title research.
  • Familiarity with surveying terminology, legal descriptions, and metes-and-bounds / deed-call interpretation.
  • Experience working across multiple jurisdictions and county recording systems.

Work Environment
This position may be performed in-office or remotely. Remote work requires reliable internet access and the ability to access online records systems and county and municipal portals. The role is primarily computer- and research-based, with regular phone contact with landowners. The Research Technician reports to a Project Manager and has no direct reports.
This job description provides an overview of the responsibilities and qualifications for the Research Technician position. It is not an exhaustive list, and responsibilities may evolve to meet the changing needs of Landpoint.
