  • Ensure map layers load efficiently, perform reliably, and meet customer expectations. 
  • Troubleshoot mapping issues related to coordinate systems, file formats, map service configuration, and data quality. 
  • Collaborate with Implementation, Customer Experience, and Product teams to ensure successful map deployment. 
  • Maintain internal documentation related to GIS configurations, standards, and best practices. 
  • Assist in developing and refining processes to scale GIS support across our growing customer base. 
  • Partner with Product to help shape future GIS capabilities within the KorTerra platform.

  • Experience using GIS software management solutions like ESRI and QGIS

  • Excellent problem-solving skills and ability to communicate complex technical concepts clearly to non-GIS users. 
  • Strong attention to detail and a commitment to high-accuracy work. 
  • Strong verbal, writing, and organizational skills 
  • Excellent customer service attitude 
  • Self-motivated with ability to work independently
