About this role

Geodetic Surveyor (Open Continuous) Multiple Locations Summary Geodetic Surveyors perform geodetic, geophysical, and GC-LiDAR surveys. They use, maintain, and troubleshoot survey equipment, and compute, adjust, and evaluate geodetic and geophysical (G&G) survey data. They provide technical expertise on G&G issues to customers and represent NGA in external community forums. Duties ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: The National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA) serves as the world leader in providing timely, relevant, accurate and actionable geospatial intelligence (GEOINT). NGA's civilian, military and contract personnel evaluate imagery, maps, charts, multiple layers of foundation data - such as terrain, elevation and gravity and the full spectrum of visible and invisible light to help users visualize what is happening at a particular place and time. NGA uses a flexible, high mobility career model. Individuals are hired for their overall skills within a specialty such as Geodetic Surveyor and then placed in various positions throughout the agency once they complete the clearance process. Although currently advertised as a non-supervisory, permanent, telework-ineligible job posting with occasional travel, it is unknown which specific positions will be available after applicants complete the selection and clearance process. Because of this, aspects of the job such as travel, supervisory, telework, etc. may change, depending on specific positions available at that time. It is also possible that applicants could be hired into a position with specific aspects and then change positions after serving for a period in that assignment. Applicants who have completed the clearance process receive final documentation about the nature of the specific position
