Advance Geodatabase Solutions for the Marine Corps

The Marine Corps Intelligence Activity (MCIA) is building a unified, enterprise geospatial capability to seamlessly integrate, manage, and share intelligence data across military, Intelligence Community, and mission partner networks. Enterprise geodatabases are central to MCIA’s mission, providing high-performance, reliable access to geospatial data that drives operational decisions, enables secure collaboration, and supports data discovery across classified and unclassified networks.

As a GIS Geodatabase Engineer, you will embed within the Marine Corps Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance Enterprise (MCISRE) to design, enhance, and sustain the backbone of MCIA’s geospatial capability. This role is ideal for someone who enjoys solving complex data and performance challenges, improving system resiliency, and ensuring geospatial architectures can scale to meet evolving mission demands. Your work will ensure MCIA’s enterprise geodatabases deliver reliable, scalable, and secure access to critical geospatial data for the Marine Corps and Intelligence Community.

  • Develop and maintain tools to ingest, export, and transform geospatial data across multiple schemas, including USMC, Topographic Data Store, and NSG-compliant standards
  • Monitor and optimize geodatabase performance to ensure reliable operation within the MCIA geospatial architecture
  • Provide remote troubleshooting and technical support to maintain geodatabase functionality without constant on-site presence
  • Collaborate with mission partners to ensure geodatabase solutions meet DoD and IC requirements
