GIS Field/Integrated Construction Technician II (ICT)

Mortenson is currently seeking a GIS Field/Integrated Construction Technician II (ICT) to join our Solar group to support the project team, Integrated Construction Coordinators (ICCs), and the Virtual Design and Construction (VDC) team by providing hands-on GIS field support, user assistance, and day-to-day technology coordination. This role focuses on working directly with people—helping users adopt tools like ArcGIS, troubleshooting basic issues, maintaining GIS data, GIS maps and reports, and handling detail-oriented tasks that keep GIS workflows running smoothly.
