Telecom GIS & Data Analyst - Network Capacity Planning

Telecom GIS & Data Analyst – Network Capacity Planning

Location: 100% Remote

Employment Type: Long-Term Contract

Client Industry: Telecommunications

Openings: 1 Position

Mandatory Requirements – Do Not Apply Unless You Meet All Three

• Direct GIS experience within the telecommunications industry
• Ability to write code in both Python and SQL
• Demonstrated initiative in translating geospatial analysis into business cases, investment decisions, or strategic recommendations — proactively surfacing insights that drive action, not just responding to requests

About the Role

TEKsystems is partnering with a leading telecommunications client to build a strategic team focused on network capacity planning and market expansion. This is not a pure development role — we're looking for someone who thinks like a business analyst and builds like an engineer. You'll use geospatial data and large-scale datasets to identify high-opportunity areas for infrastructure growth, but more importantly, you'll know how to turn that analysis into a compelling story that drives investment decisions at the leadership level.

This is a high-visibility position within the engineering organization, working directly alongside planning, strategy, and executive teams. If you've spent your career bridging the gap between technical GIS work and real business outcomes — this was built for you.

Key Responsibilities

• Analyze geospatial and consumer datasets to identify market opportunities and infrastructure gaps
• Build and present business cases that translate spatial analysis into actionable investment recommendations
• Develop and maintain spatial models to support strategic planning and network expansion analysis
• Write and optimize complex SQL queries to extract and manipulate large datasets from internal and cloud-based sources
• Build automated Python scripts and workflows for data cleaning, transformation, and analysis
• Create dashboards, maps, and reports that communicate findings clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders
• Validate and cross-reference internal datasets to ensure accuracy and consistency
• Proactively identify data gaps and drive resolution across internal teams and systems
• Collaborate with engineering, planning, and strategy teams to align insights with business goals

Required Skills

• Telecom industry GIS experience — mandatory
• Proficiency in Python for data processing, automation, and analysis
• Advanced SQL skills for querying and managing large relational datasets
• Hands-on experience with GIS platforms (ArcGIS, QGIS, MapInfo, or similar)
• Ability to build a business narrative around geospatial findings and present to leadership
• Experience working with large-scale geospatial and consumer datasets
• Strong initiative — you chase down answers, you don't wait to be pointed at them

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience supporting network planning, capacity strategy, or infrastructure investment decisions
• Familiarity with Google Cloud Platform (GCP) tools and environments
• Background in consumer segmentation, demographic overlays, or competitive analysis
• Experience building visualizations and dashboards (Tableau, Power BI, or GIS-integrated platforms)
• Exposure to cloud migration or modernization initiatives within a telecom environment

Why Join?

This is a rare opportunity to join a newly formed, high-visibility team where your analysis directly shapes infrastructure investment and network strategy at a national scale. You won't just be running queries — you'll be influencing decisions. All from a 100% remote setup.
