GIS Technical Advisor
Our client requires a senior hands-on GIS Technical Advisor to provide technical and advisory support to a multi-disciplinary project team delivering a new Spatial Data Infrastructure (SDI) Geographic Information System (GIS) solution. The role focuses on initiating, planning, and supporting the implementation of a modern GIS platform to replace and modernize existing legacy GIS systems across the organization.
Working closely with project management, business stakeholders, architects, vendors, and government technical teams, the GIS Technical Advisor will ensure that geospatial requirements are clearly defined, technically sound, and aligned with enterprise standards and public-sector requirements. The role provides GIS Architecture/Developer expertise throughout the project lifecycle, from discovery and solution design through configuration, migration, testing, and transition to operations.
This role is advisory and delivery-focused, emphasizing practical implementation guidance, risk mitigation, and knowledge transfer, rather than day-to-day system operations.
Ability to pass criminal record check is required. Enhanced background check may be required for certain projects.
Work is onsite or remote (preference for resources available to be onsite).
