Why this role matters:

As a Senior Geospatial Software Engineer, you'll help build and run the geospatial data platform behind our analytics products. The platform ingests elevation, hydrology, building, and satellite imagery data from public and commercial providers and serves it through APIs used across the company, so the pipelines and APIs you build directly shape what other teams can rely on.

Who We Are

Your day-to-day responsibilities

• Pipeline Development: Build and maintain production pipelines that collect data from external providers, process it, and load it into our spatial databases, using established ingest patterns and adding new sources.

• Pipeline Operations: Own pipelines in production, respond to failures, and adapt ingestion when upstream providers change their schemas, formats, or access rules.

• Data Delivery: Develop and operate the REST and STAC APIs that serve this data to internal and external consumers, with stable contracts and predictable performance.

• Geospatial Processing: Process large raster and vector datasets at scale, covering reprojection, mosaicking, tiling, format conversion, and quality validation.

• Engineering Quality: Improve automated testing, CI/CD, and data quality monitoring so that releases stay safe and repeatable.

• Stakeholder Partnership: Work directly with stakeholders to agree on requirements, explain data coverage, quality, and limitations, and write the specifications and decision records that support them.
