Job description

Senior Imagery Analyst (Data Annotation)

Vantor is forging the new frontier of spatial intelligence, helping decision makers and operators navigate what's happening now and shape what's coming next. Vantor is a place for problem solvers, changemakers, and go-getters—where people are working together to help our customers see the world differently, and in doing so, be seen differently. Come be part of a mission, not just a job, where you can: Shape your own future, build the next big thing, and change the world.

To be eligible for this position, you must be a U.S. Citizen. This position requires an active U.S. Government security clearance at the TS/SCI level. Employment for cleared roles is contingent upon verification of clearance status.

Vantor is seeking a detail-oriented Senior Imagery Analyst (Data Annotation) to guide and improve annotation workflows across EO, SAR, and commercial imagery. You'll perform quality validation efforts, mentor junior team members, and drive continuous improvement in annotation standards to support mission-critical AI/ML development.

Responsibilities:
  • Provide quality assurance reviews of annotated geospatial imagery
  • Train and mentor junior annotators on best practices
  • Identify systemic annotation issues and drive corrective actions
  • Validate annotation accuracy across multiple formats (bounding boxes, segmentation, center points)
  • Collaborate with peers, quality lead, program managers, and other critical partners to align data output with downstream model needs
  • Recommend and implement improvements to annotation tools and processes
  • Write and maintain annotation guidelines and quality control documentation
Minimum Qualifications:
  • U.S. citizenship and active TS/SCI clearance
  • 7+ years of experience with EO, SAR, COMINT, and/or commercial imagery analysis and geospatial data annotation
  • Proficiency in geospatial software tools (e.g., ArcGIS, QGIS)
  • Experience using Remote View, SOCET GXP, and/or Fade/Mist
  • Demonstrated leadership in data validation or quality assurance processes
  • Experience with object classification, visual QA, and annotation feedback cycles
Preferred Qualifications:
  • Experience supporting government or defense missions
  • Familiarity with automated quality metrics or annotation pipelines
  • Experience with SAR-specific feature analysis
  • Basic scripting or automation (e.g., Python, Jupyter) is a plus
  • Prior experience writing SOPs or developing team workflows

Pay Transparency: In support of pay transparency at Vantor, we disclose salary ranges on all U.S. job postings. The successful candidate's starting pay will fall within the salary range provided below and is determined based on job-related factors, including, but not limited to, the experience, qualifications, knowledge, skills, geographic work location, and market conditions. Candidates with the minimum necessary experience, qualifications, knowledge, and skillsets for the position should not expect to receive the upper end of the pay range.

The base pay for this position within California, Colorado, Hawaii, New Jersey, the Washington, DC metropolitan area, and for all other states is: $115,000.00 - $120,000.00

Benefits: Vantor offers a competitive total rewards package that goes beyond the standard, including a robust 401(k) with company match, mental health resources, and unique perks like student loan repayment assistance, adoption reimbursement and pet insurance to support all aspects of your life.

EEO Policy: Vantor is an equal opportunity employer committed to an inclusive workplace. We believe in fostering an environment where all team members feel respected, valued, and encouraged to share their ideas. All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, national origin, sex, gender identity, sexual orientation, disability, protected veteran status, age, or any other characteristic protected by law.
