The Diallo Group (TDG) is seeking a
GIS Specialist to support our federal planning and design practice from our Alexandria, Virginia office.
This position is ideal for a GIS professional who understands that GIS within a planning practice extends beyond map production. We are seeking someone capable of using geospatial information to support planning analysis, alternatives development, infrastructure assessments, facility planning, and client decision-making.
Responsibilities • Develop GIS maps, exhibits, dashboards, databases, and analytical products supporting federal planning projects.

• Support Area Development Plans, Installation Development Plans, facility programming, BFRs, DD Form 1391s, and other planning studies.
• Prepare existing-conditions, constraints, opportunities, alternatives, and preferred-development-plan exhibits.
• Manage and maintain project GIS databases and geospatial datasets.
• Coordinate GIS products with planners, engineers, architects, and landscape architects.
• Participate in planning charrettes and support real-time mapping and analysis when required.
• Produce high-quality graphics and maps for reports, presentations, and client briefings.
• Conduct QA/QC of spatial data and mapping deliverables.
Qualifications • Bachelor’s degree in GIS, Geography, Planning, Urban Studies, Environmental Science, or a related discipline preferred.
•
3+ years of professional GIS experience preferred.
• Experience working within an
urban planning, master planning, architecture/engineering, or federal consulting environment strongly preferred. • Proficiency with Esri ArcGIS Pro and related GIS applications.
• Experience with spatial analysis, geodatabases, cartography, and data management.
• Federal or DoD project experience is highly desirable.
• Understanding of planning concepts and the ability to translate planning information into clear visual products.
• GIS certification is
not required.
