You’ll join a collaborative, mission-driven organization focused on scaling renewable energy across North America. GIS is deeply embedded in our decision-making—and your work will directly influence project viability, land strategy, and long-term clean energy deployment.

At TotalEnergies, your maps become projects—and your analyses become assets.

GIS Analysis & Mapping

• Create clear, accurate maps and cartographic deliverables, including interactive web maps.
• Compile project constraints from ALTA surveys, land agreements, internal reports, and public sources.
• Plot metes and bounds to verify land ownership and project boundaries.

• Perform advanced geospatial analysis using ArcGIS Pro, geoprocessing tools, raster datasets, and LiDAR.
• Use ArcGIS ModelBuilder and Python scripting to automate workflows and streamline repetitive tasks.
• Support data lifecycle management by maintaining and versioning geospatial databases in compliance with data governance standards.

Tools, Platforms & Innovation

• Use Enverus software to support site selection campaigns and project layout development.
• Identify and execute workflow efficiency projects that improve how GIS supports the broader business.
• Manage a full workload with shifting priorities in a fast-paced development environment.
