GIS Solution Analyst

Salt River Project - Tempe, AZ
Salary: Annually
Application Deadline: N/A
Construction/Utilities/Contracting

Summary

The SRP ESMS (Enterprise GIS) team implements and enables geo-spatial solutions for all of Salt River Project and its mission of delivering reliable, affordable, and sustainable power and water. From real-time graphical displays, to mobile data collection, to enabling business workflows with a location-based focus, this team strives to be an innovation partner with all of the business areas within SRP.

On the application creation side, you’ll be interacting with SRP’s lines of business regularly to understand the business need, have a conversation about how the different ways the technology can accomplish that business need, finding the correct balance between technical implementation effort and business value, and finally implementing the solution.  You will be working with team leadership and team members in this process, and will be expected to provide your own ideas and actively consider your coworkers ideas.

On the infrastructure management side, you will be addressing any functionality issues that occur in the existing environment (many times interacting with ESRI support), providing considerations to the team as a whole regarding what capabilities to enable within the environment and to whom, and helping move towards a goal of enabling access to GIS across SRP.

A requirement of both roles is to be willing to work in a team environment and justify ideas with sound reasoning.
