The Center for Survey Statistics and Methodology (CSSM) within The College of Liberal Arts and Science is seeking a qualified Part-Time Systems Analyst III. CSSM specializes in the research and practice of sample surveys.
CSSM has functioned as a collaborator for federal and state agencies, nonprofit organizations, and other campus units.

SRS conducts data collection for surveys across a range of formats and modes, including the Iowa Farm and Rural Life Poll and the Housing Provider Study.

Identifies workflow bottlenecks and implements process and technology improvements.
Coordinates imagery production, processing, review, and QA for regional projects, including Alaska NRI.
Coordinates schedules, milestones, technical specifications, and deliverables with contractors and partners.
Monitors contractor compliance with requirements, data standards, and timelines.
Serves as a senior technical resource for complex NRI geospatial operations.
Provides technical guidance, mentoring, and support to staff and project partners.
Collaborates with NRCS, FSA, contractors, and other partners to resolve geospatial issues.
Develops SOPs, protocols, and technical documentation for geospatial processes.
Preferred Qualifications:
Experience with geospatial data, GIS, and remote sensing applications.
Experience with Python scripting, ArcGIS, QGIS, or ERDAS.
Experience developing and managing geospatial data workflows and automation tools.
Experience with data quality assurance/quality control and large, complex datasets.
