Help Shape the Future of Utility GIS
If you've spent your career working with GIS in the electric utility industry, you know that a map is much more than a map.
It's the digital foundation for power lines, substations, transformers, distribution networks, and the infrastructure that keeps communities running.
We're looking for a GIS Solutions Architect who can combine deep technical GIS expertise with real-world utility knowledge. In this role, you'll work directly with electric utilities to help build, modernize, and optimize enterprise GIS environments while guiding projects from initial planning through successful delivery.
This is an ideal opportunity for someone who enjoys solving complex technical challenges, partnering with clients, and seeing projects through from strategy to implementation.
What You'll Do
Lead the technical setup and delivery of enterprise GIS projects for electric utility clients
Partner with customers to understand business needs and recommend scalable GIS solutions
Design and support ArcGIS Enterprise, ArcGIS Online, ArcGIS Server, and related ESRI technologies
Develop scripts, automate workflows, and support enterprise databases using Python, SQL, and ModelBuilder
Coordinate with internal technical teams while managing project timelines, budgets, and client communication
Oversee multiple projects simultaneously, ensuring successful delivery and long-term customer success
What We're Looking For
5+ years of experience with the ESRI technology stack, including ArcGIS Enterprise, ArcGIS Server, ArcGIS Online, ArcGIS Pro, and related platforms
Strong experience with SQL, enterprise databases, and GIS workflow automation using Python or ModelBuilder
Familiarity with AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud
A solid understanding of electric utility systems, including distribution networks, substations, transformers, and electrical models
Excellent communication skills with the ability to work directly with clients and technical teams
Bonus Points
Experience with an electric utility, EMC, or utility engineering firm
Previous field experience as a lineman or working with utility infrastructure
Bachelor's degree in GIS, Geography, Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field
ESRI or GISP certifications
Why This Opportunity?
This is more than a technical GIS role. You'll become a trusted advisor to utility clients, helping modernize the systems that support critical infrastructure while working on projects that have a direct impact on how electric networks are planned, managed, and maintained.
If you enjoy balancing technical problem-solving with client interaction and project leadership, this is an opportunity to make a meaningful impact while working remotely with a highly collaborative team.
