Mortenson is currently seeking an experienced Field GIS Construction Coordinator I & II who will be the functional and project process expert among our Solar Project Teams in the field. As part of the VDC (Virtual Design & Construction) team, you will help support our rapidly growing group as we scale up our GIS processes as a team. This is a unique role for the GIS community, and we are excited for this team member to join our group. This position is open to both new college graduates and experienced GIS professionals.
Location: New Mexico- priority location (must be willing to relocate to New Mexico, relocation assistance will be provided- This is NOT a remote based role); Texas- secondary location as listed above
Travel: This is a regional position that will be supporting the New Mexico/Texas region and will partner with the Southwest Regional GIS lead. This position will require frequent travel to project sites as needed to actively support field teams.
This position offers opportunities at both levels I and II, allowing candidates to apply based on their experience and qualifications. Compensation for this role is determined based on factors such as experience and location.
RESPONSIBILITIES
This position will interface frequently between Solar field and design project team members to help drive project integration and technology innovation, implement GIS standardization across field teams, drive GIS adoption, host GIS trainings, and support overall VDC initiatives. Effective partnership with our E&I (Energy and Infrastructure) groups, Lean, Industrialization and field-integrated teams will be critical for the success of this position. The role will initially report to the Director of Integrated Technology and VDC for the Solar Group. A comprehensive training and onboarding program will be provided to help make this role successful. You will be joining a dynamic team of 12 VDC and GIS professionals.
Within each region you will help partner on approximately 2-6 projects. This position will require frequent travel to project sites as needed to help actively support field teams. It is expected that the team member will be on a site each day; however, a hybrid remote schedule (Approximately 80% on-site/20% remote) can be discussed and mutually agreed upon prior to the start of this role. It will require flexibility based on project needs. A rotation schedule option can also be discussed allowing for rotations home every 3 weeks for 5 days with all other workdays being on-site.
