This position will support the maintenance and operation of our client's mapping and GIS application by maintaining, reporting, and posting work or by gathering data to be inputted. Essentially, the GIS Tech receives jobs (work orders) that are sent in from designers and engineers. The work orders contain a multitude of information such as prints, customer information, and the details on all the facilities that were installed in that particular job. After reviewing the information associated with the job, the technician captures the design in the client's GIS Software. The GIS Software we use is called SmallWorld, which is similar to ArcGIS in the sense that it is still a mapping system, but the interface itself is slightly different. Smallworld GIS is a geospatial platform that is used to model complex networks, manage data quality, design and record network assets. We provide all new hires training to learn SmallWorld since it is not widely known.
On a day to day, the GIS tech is responsible for completing a set of jobs that meet the client's quota. A new GIS tech always begins on the simplest form of work and as they develop their skills they will progressively be given more difficult work types. The tech will primarily be working independently but should be comfortable collaborating with team members with group projects and to stay up to date on any standards changes made by the client.
