Key Responsibilities

• Work with project teams to figure out the optimal approach for using geospatial technologies to meet client needs, accurately estimate the corresponding level of effort, and then see implementation through to completion.
• Approach each task, regardless of size and scope, as an opportunity to rethink the traditional ways data is collected, managed, visualized, and delivered.
• Produce concise, clear, and compelling cartographic output, both dynamic and static, with a keen eye for aesthetics.
• Develop, configure, and manage dynamic and impactful web GIS applications.
• Balance an elevated level of creativity with adherence to proven company GIS standards and best practices.
• Always be persistent and diligent about quality, both in one’s own work and the work of others.
• Actively engage in the greater GIS community, both locally and beyond, staying aware of the state of practice, new tools and technology, and opportunities for growth.
• Adapt to changes in project schedule, scope, and cost, and be willing to work non-traditional hours as needed.
• Maintain a high regard for personal safety and the safety of others.
