Geospatial Data Engineer Outside IR35 Remote

Geospatial Data Engineer | Outside IR35 | Remote FME Workflows | Geoprocessing | Grid/Hex Modelling | Renewable Energy | ETLSR2 is working with a leading consultancy and currently looking for a Geospatial Data Engineer to work to work on energy and modelling project. You’ll play a key role in re-engineering existing ArcGIS Pro and FME workflows, helping transition from vector-based processing to a grid/hexagonal data model to improve scalability and analytical flexibility. This is a hands-on role for an experienced FME specialist who can quickly add value, working alongside engineers while also advising on optimisation and best practice.Key Responsibilities:

• Design, build, and optimise FME workbenches to support migration from vector overlays to grid/hex-based models
• Collaborate with GIS and engineering teams to translate requirements into scalable workflows
• Implement data transformation, validation, and automation to improve model accuracy and performance
• Optimise and restructure legacy FME workbenches for maintainability
• Support integration with ArcGIS Pro and downstream analytical workflows
• Provide knowledge transfer, documentation, and mentoring to in-house staff

Skills/Experience

• Strong track record delivering production FME workflows in complex environments
• Deep knowledge of geoprocessing methods and spatial data structures (vector, raster, grid/hex)
• Experience integrating FME with ArcGIS Pro and Esri ecosystems
• Familiarity with suitability modelling or spatial multi-criteria analysis (SMCA) desirable
• Skilled in ETL processes, spatial data management, and performance optimisation
• Strong stakeholder and team collaboration skills

Desirable Experience:

• Renewable energy, environmental, or land suitability assessments
• Python scripting in FME for automation/custom transformers
• Experience handling large-scale geospatial datasets
• Agile delivery environments

The Details

• Duration: 3 months intially
• Location: Remote
• Outside IR35
• Start: ASAP
