Job Description
At Mott MacDonald, we are driven by purpose and powered by brilliant people. As a trusted engineering, management, and development consultancy, we work with clients to solve complex challenges and deliver sustainable outcomes that make a meaningful difference for the communities we serve.
When you join us as an experienced professional, you will bring your expertise to work that matters while continuing to grow your career. You will collaborate with talented colleagues across disciplines and geographies, contribute your perspective, and help shape better outcomes through technical excellence, innovation, and integrity.
Role Purpose
The Digital Integration & Geospatial Specialist supports the deployment, integration and adoption of geospatial solutions across infrastructure and engineering projects. Reporting to the Regional Knowledge and Information Manager, this person connects geospatial platforms with project delivery systems, enables practical digital workflows and helps information flow consistently across project environments. The role will work closely with the project teams and digital solutions team to deliver integrated and reusable solutions across projects.
The ideal candidate combines strong GIS capability with practical automation, integration and project-facing delivery skills. Data engineering knowledge is helpful but is not the primary focus of the role.

- Developing Automation and Integrations: Use FME, Python, APIs and configured workflows to automate the movement and transformation of geospatial and project information between GIS platforms, Common Data Environments, project systems and reporting platforms.
- Connecting Project Information: Contribute to connected information and digital-thread workflows by linking geospatial, document, project and asset information and establishing consistent information flows across systems.
- Supporting Project Delivery: Work directly with project teams to understand project needs, configure practical solutions and support delivery from initial setup through testing, adoption and ongoing operation; provide troubleshooting, user guidance and ongoing support.
- Building Capability: Develop user documentation, training materials, reusable workflows, templates and integration patterns and contribute to demonstrations and pilots.
- Driving Continuous Improvement: Identify practical opportunities to improve project outcomes through geospatial technology, spatial analytics, automation and connected information.
Education
Bachelor’s degree in Geography, Geographic Information Systems, Information Systems, Computer Science, Engineering or a related field.
Relevant professional certifications in GIS, FME, automation or digital delivery are a plus.

- Practical experience developing FME workflows.
- Experience using Python to automate geospatial or project-information processes.
- Working experience using SQL to query, validate and support the movement of data between geospatial and project information systems. Advanced database engineering experience is not required.
- Experience supporting integrations between GIS platforms and Common Data Environments or document management systems.
- Experience supporting the configuration, testing, deployment and adoption of digital solutions on multidisciplinary projects.
- Ability to engage directly with project teams and translate project information requirements into practical solutions.
- Ability to prepare clear technical documentation, user guidance and training materials.
Preferred:
- Experience with Moata solutions like Moata Geospatial or Moata Land Management.
- Experience with Autodesk Construction Cloud, ProjectWise or SharePoint.
- Familiarity with APIs and system-to-system integrations.
