Additionally, the ideal candidate will provide research and analytical support for executive initiatives by developing and operationalizing new workflow techniques, creating technology-driven tools for assessors and field valuation staff, and producing statistical summaries, data analysis reports based on large datasets, property valuation models, spatial analyses, and map-based data pulls.

Reporting to the Assistant Commissioner of Property, the selected candidate’s duties and responsibilities will include, but are not limited to the following:

Supervise a GIS Developer.
On an ad-hoc basis, train the new hires on the use of 3D multipatch layers for various building elements in the Condo Digitization project on the Property Information Portal (PIP).
Automate current manual tasks by programming machine learning techniques to identify geospatial errors on DOF’s Digital Tax Map on the Property Information Portal (PIP).
Assist in the development of GIS projects such as the development of dashboards for the Property Information Portal.
Assist assessor staff in resolving taxpayer disputes that involve square footage calculations from architect drawings.
Create dashboards and maps for assessor and public use.

This position may be eligible for remote work up to 2 days per week, pursuant to the Remote Work Pilot Program agreed between the City and the Collective Bargaining Unit representing employees serving in the civil service title.
