Job Overview
Position Summary
The GIS Analyst II supports the planning, engineering, construction, and operation of utility-scale solar photovoltaic (PV), battery energy storage system (BESS), and associated infrastructure projects through advanced geospatial analysis, map production, workflow automation, and spatial data management. This role develops engineering-quality GIS deliverables, standardized mapping products, and repeatable geoprocessing workflows that support Civil, Structural, Environmental, Geotechnical, Development, and Construction teams throughout the project lifecycle.
The GIS Analyst II works collaboratively with engineering and operations personnel to improve data quality, automate geospatial workflows, and provide accurate, timely spatial analyses that support project planning, design, permitting, construction, and commissioning.
Primary Job Responsibilities
- Perform advanced geospatial analyses supporting utility-scale solar, battery energy storage, and associated infrastructure projects from bidding through construction and project closeout.
- Produce high-quality engineering, environmental, permitting, construction, and client-facing map exhibits using standardized cartographic practices.
- Develop, maintain, and continuously improve standardized map templates, layer symbology, labeling standards, layouts, and GIS styling libraries.
- Create and maintain repeatable geoprocessing workflows using QGIS Processing Models, Python scripting, and other GIS automation tools to improve efficiency and consistency.
- Perform terrain analyses including general PV array suitability computations, surface comparison, pile.csv file manipulation, contour generation, watershed delineation, drainage analysis, grading support, and other engineering-related spatial analyses.
- Process, manage, and quality check raster and vector datasets including clipping, mosaicking, reprojection, topology validation, overlay analysis, buffering, and attribute validation.
- Process LiDAR point cloud datasets and generate terrain models, classified surfaces, contours, elevation products, and other engineering deliverables.
- Support UAV, drone, orthophotography, remote sensing, and survey data processing workflows where applicable.
- Integrate GIS datasets from survey, engineering, environmental, utility, governmental, and publicly available sources while maintaining data integrity and quality.
- Develop automation scripts and reusable geoprocessing tools to streamline repetitive GIS tasks and improve departmental productivity.
- Maintain project geodatabases, ensure spatial data quality, and support consistent GIS data management practices across multiple projects.
- Collaborate closely with Civil, Structural, Environmental, Geotechnical, Project Management, and Construction teams to provide timely GIS support throughout all phases of project execution.
- Support continuous improvement initiatives through documentation of GIS procedures, development of standard operating procedures, and identification of opportunities for workflow automation.
