GIS & Operations Data Specialist – Heavy Civil

Folino Construction | Pittsburgh, PA | Full-Time

About Us

Folino Construction is a heavy civil contractor based in Pittsburgh. We pave, pour concrete, and build pipe and utility systems on PennDOT, PWSA and municipal projects across Western Pennsylvania. Our work now also includes oil and gas and data center projects. We're hiring a GIS Specialist to own our project and operations data and turn it into maps, records and reports our crews and managers use every day.

Faster. Smoother. Better.

The Role

You'll build and run the system that tells us where our work is, what's in the ground, and where our crews, trucks and equipment are. Half of this job is GIS: mapping, data collection and records. The other half is Operations: helping our project managers, superintendents and dispatch plan the work and track production. You'll split your time between the office and our job sites.
