- Someone with an entry-level background in construction, surveying, or a related trade who has the technical aptitude to learn our specialized visual capture and laser scanning services.
- Someone who puts customer service and professionalism at the forefront - you will often be the only Multivista representative the client sees.

What You Will Do
Visual capture
- Proficiently use, and be willing to be trained on, our reality capture technologies - digital photography, streaming webcams, video cameras, 360° cameras, and unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) - to visually document construction progress across Edmonton and Northern Alberta.
- Read and organize construction floor plans, and accurately locate every capture against them.
- Navigate active construction sites safely while producing steady, high-quality, inspection-grade imagery.
3D laser scanning and registration
- Operate a Leica RTC360 terrestrial laser scanner to capture interior and exterior conditions, including scan planning, station placement, and target setup.
- Register point clouds in Leica Cyclone REGISTER 360, verify registration accuracy, and clean, unify, and export data (e.g., LGS, E57, RCP) for client and downstream use.
- Perform field QA on scan coverage and overlap before demobilizing, and manage secure transfer, backup and archiving of scan data.
- Prior experience with terrestrial laser scanning or point-cloud registration is a strong asset; full training on the RTC360 and Cyclone workflow is provided.
Project and quality management
- Set up and manage projects, upload media and enter data across tablets, laptops, desktops and smartphones using Multivista’s platform and Microsoft Office.
- Consistently adhere to standard operating policies and procedures, and perform regular quality assurance checks as part of the daily workflow.

- Always maintain a professional appearance on site as a representative of Multivista.
