Organization Overview
Description
Planning and Geospatial Analyst
Are you the kind of person who would make a map of the best places to find a food truck on your way to work? Would you go a step further and build a cost-distance analysis to find the easiest way to this food truck? And then push it up to a cloud based app to share the intel? If you enjoy geospatial data analysis and think it can help make the world a better place (in addition to enjoying mobile food vendors), then this is the job for you. This position is about problem solving with geospatial data in a planning context. It is about communicating complex information about communities with maps and related data.
As a small non-profit with a variety of projects, we also seek employees with flexibility, enthusiasm, and a sense of humor. PlaceMatters is looking for a bright, energetic and creative person to become our next team member.
