General Description: The Wyoming Game and Fish Department is seeking a GIS Support Specialist based out of Cheyenne, WY. This position leads the technical administration, development, and ongoing support of a critical, agency-wide geospatial compliance application. The role serves as a primary technical liaison for non-technical stakeholders, including regulatory applicants and habitat biologists.

While focusing significantly on this high-impact project, the position offers opportunities to help design and develop future enterprise GIS applications to support agency objectives.

Essential Functions

  • Configure and maintain geospatial solutions within agency cloud environments and relational database management systems.
  • Deploy and support custom web applications within the Esri ecosystem, including ArcGIS Pro, ArcGIS Enterprise and ArcGIS Online.
  • Use Python and other languages such as Arcade and JavaScript to script automated procedures and reduce manual data processes.
  • Translate user requirements, formal agency directives, and wildlife policies into geospatial workflows and tools.
  • Analyze imagery to identify and digitize critical landscape features.
  • Provide geoprocessing analyses on various datasets to produce information summaries for annual reporting.
  • Provide direct technical support and training to regulatory applicants, habitat biologists, and other agency stakeholders.
