Geospatial Data & GIS Solutions

Position Description:

Would you like to have a career with a collaborative, diverse, and dynamic mining company? We have an exciting opportunity for you!

Barrick is looking for a Geospatial Data & GIS Solutions Lead. The successful candidate is responsible for supporting and advancing geospatial data, GIS, remote sensing, data integration and technical automation capabilities across Exploration. The role works at the intersection of geoscience, GIS, remote sensing, data management and development, helping ensure geological, geochemical, geophysical, remote-sensing and other Exploration datasets are appropriately captured, organized, integrated, quality-controlled, accessible and reusable.

The role combines strong geospatial expertise with hands-on technical development, including the use of Python and geospatial technologies to improve, automate and standardize workflows. Working closely with the Regional Geosciences Data & Analytics Manager and multidisciplinary Exploration teams, the role will help strengthen data standards and knowledge continuity, integrate GIS with other Exploration systems, and develop practical, reusable solutions. The successful candidate is not expected to be an expert in every technology; the role requires a strong geospatial and technical foundation, hands-on Python capability, collaborative problem solving and a strong orientation toward continuous learning.  This position is located in Toronto, Canada. The yearly salary for this position is between CAD 119,000 – 133,000. 

At Barrick, our vision is to be the world’s most valued gold mining business by finding, developing, and operating the best assets with the best people. We are committed to a safe work environment sending every person home safe and healthy every day and leaving a sustainable legacy on our host communities. 

Responsibilities:

• Work with geological, geochemical, geophysical, remote-sensing and other Exploration datasets across GIS, databases, project environments and web-based platforms.
• Support and improve workflows using ArcGIS Pro, ArcGIS Enterprise, ArcGIS Online, Web GIS, Field Maps and Survey123.
• Compile, integrate, QA/QC and standardize geospatial and geoscience datasets; improve how spatial data is structured, documented, discovered, shared and reused.
• Help establish practical geospatial data standards, metadata, naming conventions and reusable project structures aligned with corporate standards and protocols.
• Work with raster, satellite and remote-sensing datasets; process, analyze, integrate and visualize them alongside geological, geochemical and geophysical information.
• Use Python to automate repetitive geospatial and data-processing workflows and develop scripts, tools and lightweight solutions for GIS, compilation, QA/QC, analysis and integration.
