Communicating effectively with all members of their Team in a manner that shows they understand the expectations accepted by them and also are able to convey their expectations to others.
Being open minded about applying the tried-and-true survey methodologies to cutting edge technologies as we as an industry usher into a new world of Reality Capture.
Growing beyond their current capacity by establishing unique and empowering career goals that push the employee and their peers to grow together.
Sure, we are looking for all the “normal” skills that every other survey company is looking for such as:
Record and calculate geospatial data for all types of survey projects including but not limited to: DOT topographic design and Right of Way mapping, Aeronautical Surveys, ALTA’s, photo control and Lidar support.
Proficiency with the latest Trimble Survey data collectors, GNSS and Conventional Total Stations.

Some “great if you have it” skills or experience:
Static, Mobile or Air-borne LIDAR collection or processing is always a plus.
Subsurface Utility Engineering (SUE) or Subsurface Utility Mapping (SUM) experience strongly desired.
As Reality Capture moves to the UAS platforms, experience in Mission Planning, Execution and/or Processing UAS Data is great, as well.
MicroStation, Autodesk Civil 3D CAD, and/or ArcGIS skills are always beneficial to helping you grow
An Associate’s or a Bachelor’s degree in Geography, Geomatics, Survey, CAD or related field preferred but not required
Licensed Surveyor (LS) or Land Surveyor in Training (L.S.I.T) certification shows that you are engaged to take your career to the next level.
Willingness to travel 75% or more to remote field locations, including overnight stays, as needed. Travel locations are not necessarily limited to the U.S., so a passport is a plus.
