Geomatics Analyst

About the Role We're recruiting Geomatics Analysts (Level 2) to support the development of geospatial mapping capabilities and products for evolving aircraft systems, including major helicopter modernization programs. This role sits within a specialized engineering team producing aeronautical charts and custom geospatial products built to meet strict aviation operational airworthiness standards — a highly specialized cartographic and GIS discipline. What You'll Do • Analyze, develop, and document the functional requirements of aircraft map-display systems, including information, procedures, and decision flows • Evaluate existing procedures and methods; identify and document database content, structure, and application sub-systems; develop data dictionaries • Define input/output sources and detailed technical design plans, and support approval of designs • Design and document system components, their interfaces, and operational environments • Design data structures, files, sub-systems, modules, and production workflows, including testing strategies and systems • Document system design and concepts, and present for approval • Produce complete operational systems, including forms, manuals, programs, data files, and procedures • Perform GIS and cartographic production analysis and modelling • Design and implement functional prototypes of aeronautical charts and products • Restructure and integrate data from diverse sources and formats into production workflows • Create and update metadata for geospatial datasets compliant with ISO 19115 metadata standards • Create, update, and maintain documentation outlining production procedures and applicable aeronautical/mapping standards • Create, update, and document standardized datasets and fit-for-purpose aeronautical products across aircraft fleets • Maintain detailed product specifications, database schemas, and symbology libraries for digital aeronautical products and web mapping services • Provide technical advice and support to internal development teams as well as external stakeholders and the broader product user community Deliverables • Documented functional requirements • Documented database structures, schemas, and associated content definitions • Technical design documentation describing the processes used to convert input data sources into required outputs • Production manuals, standard operating procedures, and related documentation • Technical specifications for final data products • System design documentation describing relationships and integrations between applications, tools, and data transformers • Output data and/or product prototypes for testing and validation Requirements What We're Looking For • Experience as a Geomatics Analyst, GIS Specialist, or Cartographer, ideally at an intermediate (Level 2) level • Strong background in GIS, cartographic production, and geospatial data modelling • Experience with aeronautical charting or aviation mapping products is a strong asset • Familiarity with ISO 19115 metadata standards • Experience developing functional requirements, database schemas, and system design documentation • Ability to work with diverse data sources and formats and integrate them into production workflows • Strong technical writing and documentation skills • Eligible to obtain and maintain a government security clearance and controlled goods registration, as this role involves access to controlled goods and technology • Fluent in English Engagement Details • Location: on-site in Ottawa, ON during core hours (7:00 AM–5:00 PM, Monday–Friday, excluding statutory holidays); limited off-site/remote work may be authorized by the client • Meetings: weekly status update meetings, plus ad hoc meetings as required • Language: English

The Geomatics Analyst will develop geospatial mapping capabilities and aeronautical products for aircraft systems while ensuring compliance with airworthiness standards. Responsibilities include designing database structures, documenting functional requirements, and integrating diverse data sources into production workflows.

Candidates should have experience as a Geomatics Analyst, GIS Specialist, or Cartographer with a strong background in geospatial data modelling and cartographic production. Familiarity with ISO 19115 metadata standards and the ability to obtain government security clearance are required.
