Build Mission‑Critical Geospatial Data and Analytics Capabilities

This role is built for a cleared geospatial technologist who can bridge two mission offices: one focused on geospatial data curation, ArcGIS Portal products, and operational visualization; the other focused on data processing, analytics, and Tableau‑driven reporting.

Responsibilities What You’ll Work On Geospatial Data Curation, Portal, and Visualization

Manage, curate, publish, and maintain geospatial datasets, hosted feature layers, web maps, dashboards, and data products in ArcGIS Portal. Ensure mission users have access to accurate, well‑organized, current, and usable geospatial information.

Partner with mission users to understand geospatial data needs, analytic questions, visualization requirements, and operational workflows.

Identify, acquire, clean, transform, validate, curate, and publish large geospatial and tabular datasets from diverse sources.

Develop Python scripts and tools to automate geospatial data processing, quality control, enrichment, transformation, and publication workflows.

Manage and update ArcGIS Portal content, including hosted feature layers, map services, web maps, dashboards, data hubs, and related geospatial products.

Build and maintain Tableau dashboards, reports, and analytic visualizations used by the data processing office and mission stakeholders.

Apply sound cartographic design, symbology, labeling, layer management, metadata practices, and performance tuning to improve the usability of geospatial products.

Integrate structured, unstructured, tabular, and spatial datasets into cohesive analytical and visualization environments.

Support geospatial data library functions, including dataset organization, metadata creation, version management, quality control, discoverability, and lifecycle maintenance.

Develop documentation, data dictionaries, standard operating procedures, user guidance, and technical recommendations that support repeatable data management and visualization workflows.

Work independently across two office environments while collaborating with multidisciplinary teams and communicating technical concepts clearly to both technical and non‑technical audiences.
