You bring a growth mindset to working with data and technology. You are knowledgeable about emerging geospatial technologies and analytical techniques and their potential applications in environmental science. You have the skills and experience to support development of systems, standards and processes to organize and maintain data and support implementation of novel technology platforms.

You are a highly collaborative team player with strong communication skills and ability to produce work on time and on budget with attention to detail, as well as the big picture.
