Job Description

Roles & Responsibilities

What You ll Be Doing

• Support the GIS Development Lead in configuring and developing GIS components of the Operational Digital Twin across discovery, design, PoC, implementation, and post-implementation support phases
• Assist in configuring and publishing map services, feature services, web maps, and web/mobile GIS applications using the Esri ArcGIS platform (ArcGIS Enterprise, ArcGIS Online, ArcGIS Pro)
• Help develop and maintain geoprocessing tools, scripts, and automation routines to support data loading, transformation, validation, and analysis for Digital Twin use cases
• Support the development and testing of integrations between ArcGIS and enterprise/operational systems (e.g., EAM/CMMS, ERP, BIM, SCADA/IoT, data warehouses/lakes) under the guidance of the GIS Development Lead and Integration Lead
• Assist in implementing and maintaining GIS data models, including spatial, time-series, and asset/linear network datasets required for core use cases
• Support testing, performance tuning, and optimisation of GIS services and applications to meet agreed non-functional requirements (availability, responsiveness, scalability, security)
• Assist in preparing technical documentation, configuration records, and operational runbooks for GIS components, and in providing post-go-live support and minor enhancements

What Required Skills You ll Bring

• Degree in GIS, computer science, engineering, or a related technical discipline from an accredited institution
• Experience developing or configuring GIS solutions using the Esri ArcGIS platform (e.g., ArcGIS Enterprise, ArcGIS Online, ArcGIS Pro, web maps/apps)
• Working knowledge of geospatial data models, vector and raster data, spatial analysis, and basic geoprocessing techniques
• Basic experience with scripting or programming for GIS automation or customisation (e.g., Python, ArcPy, JavaScript, or similar), and familiarity with web GIS concepts
• Exposure to solutions that integrate ArcGIS with enterprise and operational systems (e.g., EAM/CMMS, ERP, BIM, SCADA/IoT platforms, data warehouses/lakes)
• Experience working within multidisciplinary, multinational teams across multiple time zones
• Strong organisational and coordination skills, with some experience in structured project or delivery environments (e.g., PMI, PRINCE2, Agile/Hybrid)
• Exposure to testing, acceptance, or go-live activities for complex or integrated GIS solutions
• Excellent communication and documentation skills, with the ability to clearly convey technical information to non-technical stakeholders
• Fluency in spoken and written English; Arabic language skills are a strong advantage

What Desired Skills You ll Bring

• Prior work with national infrastructure owners, transport authorities, utilities, or public works organisations
• Experience working on large-scale digital, Digital Twin, or smart city projects involving geospatial components
• Familiarity with systems integration concepts and technologies relevant to GIS (APIs, web services, message queues, event-driven architectures)
• Experience working with cloud platforms (e.g., Azure, AWS) and DevOps practices for deploying and managing GIS solutions
• Professional certifications in GIS or related technologies (e.g., Esri technical certifications)
