Are you a forward-thinking strategist who sees data as the cornerstone of a resilient city? The City of Edmonton’s Enterprise Asset Management (EAM) team is looking for a Systems Analyst who does more than just manage data—they architect the intelligence that fuels our city’s future infrastructure needs.

In this role, you are the strategic bridge between complex technical ecosystems and the City’s long-term infrastructure goals. You won’t just be maintaining systems; you will be optimizing a vast data landscape to ensure that high-quality information empowers leaders to make the right calls for our community.

• Combine complex data into high-level dashboards and analytical models that provide leadership with actionable intelligence, rather than just raw data

• Collaborate with a network of over 20 data stewards to resolve discrepancies, enforce high-level standards, and promote a culture of data excellence

• Experience leveraging BI tools—specifically Google Looker or Tableau—to transform raw data into high-level business outcomes and executive-level dashboards
• A forward-thinking approach to technology, using Google’s collaborative ecosystem to automate workflows, reduce silos, and increase the velocity of decision-making across the City
