This role serves as the functional authority for defining the target Utility Network platform and guiding the transition from a database‑centric GIS environment to a modern, service‑oriented, web‑GIS platform.

The Solution Architect will provide hands‑on functional leadership across business processes, workflows, applications, services, integrations, and overall Business objectives, while ensuring alignment with client's enterprise architecture and utility operational objectives.

+ Lead and advise on effective best practices for solutioning the migration from legacy network models (e.g., ArcGIS Geometric Network or custom models) to ArcGIS Utility Network.

+ Translate electric and gas utility business requirements into scalable GIS workflows, processes, applications and service‑based solutions.

+ Ensure GIS capabilities effectively support end‑to‑end utility workflows, including planning, design, construction, field operations, outage response, and asset management.

+ Provide functional leadership to delivery teams and ensure solution quality, performance, and operational continuity throughout the migration.

+ Establish rapid functional credibility with our client stakeholders by articulating best practices, risks, and lessons learned from comparable Utility Network implementations.

Leadership & Client Engagement

+ Acts as a trusted advisor to both business and IT leadership.

+ Leads workshops, design sessions, and executive briefings related to Utility Network strategy, architecture, and implementation.

+ Owns and produces solution architecture and functional design artifacts, including architecture diagrams, service interaction models, and integration designs.

Functional Requirements

+ Deep experience with electric and gas distribution utilities, with strong understanding of operational processes and field‑to‑office workflows.

+ Proven ability to align GIS solutions to the needs of engineering, operations, control rooms, and asset management teams.

+ Strong grasp of Utility Network functional concepts, including network topology and rules, asset and device modeling, structural vs. functional networks, and advanced network tracing.

+ Experience guiding organizations through the process and change impacts associated with adopting ArcGIS Utility Network and ArcGIS Pro‑centric editing.

+ Extensive hands‑on experience with the Esri platform, including ArcGIS Utility Network, ArcGIS Enterprise, ArcGIS Pro, and service‑based GIS patterns.

+ Strong understanding of Utility Network architecture, including branch versioning, services, APIs, and web‑GIS deployment models.

+ Demonstrated success migrating from database‑centric GIS architectures to service‑oriented, API‑driven platforms.

+ Experience integrating GIS with enterprise systems, such as Enterprise Asset Management (EAM), Work Management, Outage Management Systems (OMS), and field mobility solutions.

+ Ability to design secure, scalable, and future‑ready GIS platform aligned with enterprise IT standards.

Experience Required

+ 7+ years of experience in utility GIS solution architecture and implementations.
