Summary

Join our established team as a Geospatial Data Engineer to design and improve Earth Observation tooling for our mapping platform. You will collaborate with Geospatial Developers to enhance our earth observation pipeline for processing satellite data. This role involves working on various projects, including methane detection, inSAR monitoring, vegetation health monitoring, and more. We seek candidates with 5+ years of experience and proficiency in web mapping libraries, GIS concepts, relational databases, and geospatial coding using Python. The position is full-time and work-from-home.

Requirements

• Proficiency with web mapping libraries (e.g., Mapbox, Maplibre, OpenLayers, Leaflet) and related technologies (e.g., GeoJSON, VectorTiles, Raster/Vector data, COGs)
• Strong understanding of GIS concepts (features, layers, projections)
• Experience with relational databases and concepts (e.g., SQL, Postgres, PostGIS)
• Proficiency in geospatial coding using Python and developing APIs (e.g., FastAPI)
• Familiarity with remote sensing concepts (hyper/multispectral sensors, bands, spatial resolution)
• Experience with containerization and orchestration for scalable deployments (e.g., Docker, Kubernetes)
• Experience using open-source geospatial technologies (e.g., STAC, shapely, geopandas, spectral, rasterio)
• Proficiency with version control and collaborative development (e.g., Git, GitHub)
• Ability to work both collaboratively and independently in a distributed, remote setting
• 5+ Years Experience

Responsibilities

• Help design and improve Earth Observation tooling for our mapping platform
