  • Drive the development of custom GIS solutions and tools to support utility workflows and improve operational efficiency.
  • Analyze performance metrics, system logs, and test results to generate actionable insights and recommendations.
  • Manage upgrades, patches, and enhancements to GIS software and servers, ensuring minimal impact to operations.
  • Mentor junior team members and help establish best practices in system monitoring, testing, and GIS solution delivery.
    Document solutions, testing methodologies, outage recovery plans, and support procedures.

  • Deep expertise in ArcFM, ArcGIS Enterprise, ArcMap, and related Esri technologies.
  • Strong hands-on experience with LoadRunner or equivalent performance testing tools.
  • Solid understanding of performance tuning techniques for GIS platforms and databases (SQL Server, Oracle).
  • Proven ability to simulate large user bases, analyze system usage, and create solutions to ensure optimal performance.
  • Proficient in scripting languages such as Python (ArcPy) for automation and testing.
  • Strong communication skills with the ability to convey complex technical topics to stakeholders.
  • Experience working with Agile teams and managing workload with minimal supervision.
