About Nyeleti Engenharia

Nyeleti Engenharia, Lda. is a Mozambican technical consulting firm headquartered in Maputo City. The organization develops and monitors infrastructure projects that rely on detailed analysis of the national territory.

To reinforce the technical team, the company intends to integrate a professional specialized in spatial data. This specialist supports consulting work from initial field data collection and reading to digital processing and production of final cartographic elements.

The role of GIS in projects

In engineering projects, such as defining road alignments, sizing dams, or locating developments, terrain modeling guides technical decision-making. Work in Geographic Information Systems transforms raw spatial data into the raw material for engineering solutions.

The thematic maps produced serve to analyze land use, land cover, and the environmental or physical impact of a given alignment. The delineation of watershed sub-basins identifies rainwater flow behavior, indicating where infrastructure should be positioned on the ground.

In turn, digital terrain modeling provides the exact elevation of each point in the study area. This information is the foundation for designing earth cuts, sizing drainage networks, and assessing slope stability at project sites.

To execute these operational tasks, the role requires practical knowledge and mastery of QGIS and/or ArcGIS geoprocessing tools. The position is aimed at professionals who already have accumulated experience in manipulating spatial data in concrete projects.

What you will do

In your daily technical work at the company, you will take on the following direct responsibilities:

• Elaboration of thematic maps: create thematic cartography for the company's projects, covering all stages from spatial data reception and processing to the delivery of final maps to the team.
• Delineation of watershed sub-basins: delineate watershed sub-basins to precisely define water contribution areas needed to support engineering solutions.
• Construction of digital terrain models: develop digital terrain modeling to ensure topographic reading of the company's intervention areas.
