Job Responsibilities

Key Responsibilities

  • Support the Senior GIS Developer in building and maintaining GIS data workflows using open-source tools.
  • Acquire, clean, transform, and load geospatial datasets to support product, engineering, and analytics use cases.
  • Execute against defined priorities and deadlines while raising risks early and communicating status clearly.
  • Perform quality assurance checks to improve data completeness, consistency, and usability.
  • Document data lineage, transformation methods, assumptions, and known gaps (for example, counties/states with missing data).
  • Contribute to repeatable geospatial processes and help improve internal GIS standards over time.
  • Support occasional off-hours on-call needs for geospatial operations.
  • Participate in interviews and provide hiring feedback when requested.

What Success Looks Like

  • Priority geospatial initiatives are delivered by agreed deadlines with clear documentation.
  • Data products are complete where possible, with clear documentation of missing or unavailable data.
  • GIS workflows are repeatable, documented, and trusted by partner teams.
  • Cross-functional teams can reliably use geospatial outputs in products, analytics, and planning.
Job Requirements

Required Qualifications

  • 3+ years of professional GIS experience.
  • Hands-on experience with QGIS, PostGIS, GDAL, Mapbox, Python, and SQL.
  • Demonstrated ability to build or support cloud hosted geospatial ETL/data preparation workflows.
  • Experience collaborating with cross-functional stakeholders and communicating technical details clearly.
  • Strong attention to detail, time management, curiosity, and ownership mindset.

Preferred Qualifications

  • 5+ years of GIS experience.
  • Experience supporting geospatial needs for product teams and/or machine learning/data science initiatives.
  • Familiarity with cloud computing in Microsoft Azure.
  • Experience with Spatiotemporal Asset Catalogs (STAC) and cloud native geospatial formats.

What We Offer

  • The funding and long-term focus of a privately-held company, combined with the energy of a startup.
  • The opportunity to work with cutting edge geospatial tools in an emerging GIS team.
  • Remote-friendly culture with an optional annual hunting trip.
