Responsibilities
  • Manage and support GIS projects and tasks to ensure they are delivered on time, within budget, and in alignment with scope, quality standards, and client expectations.
  • Support business development efforts by identifying opportunities, contributing to client relationship development, assisting with proposals and interviews, and helping win new GIS-related work and projects.

  • Perform Quality Control tests on work products done by others.

Skills and Attributes

  • Demonstrated experience in task managing or project management on GIS projects of all sizes and complexity.
  • Ability to identify GIS-related growth opportunities, support client relationships, and contribute to business development and pursuit activities.
  • Geodatabase design, development, management and maintenance.
  • Experience configuring web applications using Esri's web application frameworks and products such as Experience Builder, ArcGIS Dashboards, Field Maps, and Survey123.
  • Able to create map services and interactive web applications.
  • Experience with scripting and automation across Esri's ArcGIS Platform.
  • Able to utilize GIS applications to perform advanced spatial analysis or data conversion or manipulation. i.e., raster/surface manipulation, mosaic, modify and repurpose imagery for other software.
  • Ability to learn new skills and methods on-the-fly, troubleshoot issues, and solve technical problems.
  • Innovative spirit and a growth mindset-eager to build new client relationships and expand our visibility in the region.

Qualifications
  • 8+ years of professional experience utilizing GIS technology, including at least 4 years of project management experience.
  • BS in GIS, Engineering, Planning, or Geography
  • Master's degree preferred and may be substituted for 1-2 years of experience
