Bechtel and Westinghouse Electric Company have partnered to deliver the first AP1000 nuclear power reactors in Poland for our customer, the Polish Entity Polskie Elektrownie Jadrowe (PEJ). Bechtel will be the Engineering, Procurement, and Construction (EPC) contractor for the project. As the EPC, our responsibilities will include providing the design for the Turbine Island and Balance of Plant as well as the construction of the entire facility.

This is a one-of-a-kind opportunity, and we are looking for the talent that will help expand Poland's nuclear base and build a strong and long-lasting energy future for generations to come.

This position is subject to U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) regulation 10 CFR Part 810 (Part 810), which governs the transfer of hardware, materials, and technology to support the construction and operation of commercial nuclear power plants overseas.

The Project GIS Administrator and Integration Developer is responsible for administering, maintaining, and advancing the project's Enterprise ArcGIS (Portal) environment as the authoritative geospatial platform for the Poland AP1000 project. This is the primary focus of the role. In addition, the position leads the development and processing of information gathered by the construction field - including drone/UAV imagery, LiDAR point clouds, and custom field-collected data - and integrates GIS with the other digital tools developed on the project to deliver a cohesive Common Data Environment (CDE).

The role requires a firm understanding of the impacts and security implications of maintaining and operating an ArcGIS Enterprise solution, and an advanced level of proficiency and demonstrated experience in ArcGIS Servers, Enterprise GIS geodatabases, programming languages, and spatial analysis using ESRI-based and open-source products. As the platform owner and integration developer, the ideal candidate will be involved in geospatial web application development, reality-capture data processing, and the design, development, and maintenance of GIS deliverables and services that support project execution and Project Information Management (PIM).

Working closely with Engineering, Project Controls, Procurement, Construction, Digital Delivery, IT, and client teams, the position ensures that geospatial information remains accurate, secure, discoverable, and interoperable across the project's digital ecosystem throughout the project lifecycle.
