GIS Developer ALTO project Cadence

SYSTRA Canada is part of the SYSTRA group an international consulting and engineering group a world leader in the design of transport infrastructures. SYSTRA Canada is an engineering and consulting firm whose primary focus is to offer transportation solutions whether for passengers or goods: feasibility studies of building a new railway line increasing the capacity of the existing infrastructure privatization of a railway.

The GIS Developer will support geospatial data integration workflow automation and land information management within a multidisciplinary infrastructure environment. Working closely with GIS land design and digital delivery teams the successful candidate will help improve interoperability data quality and operational efficiency across multiple digital platforms.

• Design develop maintain and optimize FME workflows to transform validate and integrate data across systems such as geographic information systems computer-aided design/building information modelling platforms document repositories and external data sources.
• Support the integration of land survey utility environmental and alignment data into GIS environments.
• Develop data pipelines and connectors to enable reliable scalable exchange of information between project systems and application programming interfaces.
• Support the structured management of high-volume land parcel and property information for use in GIS and land acquisition processes.
• Develop automated workflows to support the identification and tracking of requested properties and lands as well as the management of land attributes such as access dates occupancy and temporary use requirements.
• Populate update and maintain GIS datasets used for land request submissions and related project workflows.
• Implement automation solutions to reduce manual effort in repetitive and high-volume tasks including data ingestion synchronization validation quality control reporting and submission preparation.
• Ensure workflows are rule-based scalable and integrated with project systems and controlled data repositories.
• Integrate FME workflows with ArcGIS Enterprise ArcGIS Pro web GIS services and the projects common data environment to support secure storage controlled access and efficient data sharing.
• Enable publication of data to web-based GIS platforms for stakeholder access review and interaction.
• Apply data validation rules schema controls and metadata preparation practices aligned with geospatial standards and project requirements.
• Support traceability and auditability of data transformations and exchanges across systems.
• Prepare GIS datasets and workflows that support advanced digital delivery use cases including digital twin integration and cross-discipline information flows between GIS BIM and other project management systems where required.
• Deliver clean structured and reliable datasets to support analytics simulation reporting and decision-making.
• Collaborate effectively with multidisciplinary teams across GIS land environment design and digital delivery functions.
