GIS Developer with a Focus on FME

Do you have ideas for the future and are you driven by challenges? In Haninge, you will develop alongside supportive colleagues who want to make a difference today. Right now, one of the most ambitious transformation efforts in our municipality's history is underway. We are building a new city, about 20 minutes from Söder. Join us on our journey.

Welcome to Grow with Us

The Department of Geographic Information belongs to the Urban Planning Administration and has 26 employees distributed across three units: Municipal Land Survey Authority, Mapping & Measurement, and GIS.

The mission of the GIS unit is to provide geodata to Haninge municipality's operations, businesses, and residents. We do this, for example, by providing systems and map data through internal and external web maps, building automations and 3D models, performing GIS analyses, data deliveries, and producing special maps. The GIS unit also serves as a service and expert function for the municipality's other operations regarding the use of digital maps and geographic information.

We have a comprehensive GIS platform, primarily based on OpenSource components. FME Flow is our core for automating data flows and processing, both to keep our web maps updated and in the form of self-service services such as data extracts and analyses. We also use FME in much of the daily GIS support for the municipality's operations.

The GIS unit currently consists of 10 people: three GIS engineers who work closely with various operations, five GIS developers with partially different focuses, one GIS system administrator, and one unit manager. We work with clear responsibilities and roles, but also with redundancy and collaboration in focus. The group is characterized by team spirit, commitment, and high competence.

Our GIS developer focusing on FME is moving from the Stockholm area and needs to be replaced.
