Job description

ASRC Federal Advanced Research, LLC (AFAR) is seeking a Senior GIS Analyst to support a potential contract with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), National Weather Service (NWS) in Norman, Oklahoma. 

The NWS operates a complex, interconnected enterprise of systems responsible for the collection, processing, and dissemination of weather data and forecast products. These systems range from field-deployed observation infrastructure (e.g., ASOS, radar networks, data buoys) to mission-critical processing platforms (e.g., AWIPS, MRMS) and enterprise-level data architectures. To meet evolving mission needs, enhance resilience, and leverage modern technology, the NWS requires expert, on-demand support to execute a multi-year strategy focused on cloud adoption, modernization of legacy systems, and seamless integration of new capabilities and research partner data streams.

The NWS, in partnership with other agencies, is executing the Radar Next Program to modernize the nation’s weather radar infrastructure. This program involves replacing the aging Next Generation Weather Radar (NEXRAD) Weather Surveillance Radar 1988 Doppler (WSR-88D) system with a next-generation network featuring enhanced capabilities, and improved coverage and performance. Given the criticality of uninterrupted radar coverage for public safety, the transition must be seamless.

AFAR’s potential partnership with NWS will provide specialized technical and engineering support to the NWS Radar Next Program Office across several key areas to ensure the successful definition, design, development, and deployment of the modernized radar system and its associated data processing and distribution infrastructure.

Work type:  Part-time, On-call 

Background: Government issued background investigation

Responsibilities:

  •  Advanced GIS modeling and geospatial visualization for NWS/MRMS/RadarNext.

  • Terrain modeling, coverage analysis, site suitability. 
  • Presentation-ready outputs.                                                          
  • May lead small team and mentor junior analysts 

Education/Experience:

  • Minimum of 10+ years of relevant work experience.
  • Bachelor’s in Geographic Information Science, Geography, Geospatial Analytics, Meteorology, Atmospheric Science, Environmental Science, or related, or equivalent.
