What You'll Be Doing:

• Detecting and Reporting Gas Leaks: Use your hands‑on skills to identify, assess, and report gas leaks, contributing to the safety of communities and infrastructure. Training will be provided, but prior experience in construction, HVAC, or field locating will help you hit the ground running.
• Mastering GIS Tools: Learn to work with Geographic Information Systems (GIS) to create meaningful visualizations from raw data. Your interest in learning about spatial data and mapping systems will be key.
• Supporting Clients: Act as a resource for clients, providing support with our advanced FlowGIS and Esri software. A customer‑focused mindset will set you up for success.
• Compiling and Communicating Data: Translate daily progress into clear and concise reports, ensuring all stakeholders understand the results of our work.

• Detail‑Oriented Communicator: You’re thorough in your work and can clearly communicate findings in both written and verbal formats.
• Team‑Oriented and Independent: Collaboration is key, but you can also take charge of tasks independently.
• Ready to Travel: With a valid driver’s license, you’ll support operations across various locations throughout the United States.

Requirements:

• Education and Interest: While a Bachelor’s degree in Geography, GIS, or a related field is helpful, it’s not required. Practical skills and a desire to learn are just as valuable.
• Industry Experience: Experience in leak surveys, construction, or customer interaction is a bonus but not mandatory. Training will be provided.
