How much do photogrammetry jobs pay per year?

As of Aug 17, 2026, the average yearly pay for photogrammetry in California is $75,280.00, according to ZipRecruiter salary data. Most workers in this role earn between $52,300.00 and $93,300.00 per year, depending on experience, location, and employer.

What is photogrammetry?

A photogrammetry job involves using photography to create precise 3D models and maps of objects, environments, or terrains. Professionals in this field analyze images from drones, satellites, or cameras to extract measurements and spatial data. They work in industries like surveying, architecture, archaeology, gaming, and virtual reality. Photogrammetrists use specialized software to process images and create detailed reconstructions for various applications. Strong technical skills in imaging, GIS, and 3D modeling are essential for this role.

What does a photogrammetrist do?

As a photogrammetrist, your daily responsibilities usually include processing aerial or satellite imagery, generating maps and 3D models, and ensuring data accuracy through detailed analysis. You'll often collaborate with surveyors, GIS specialists, and engineers to support construction, urban planning, or environmental projects. Quality control, documentation, and communicating technical findings to non-experts are regular parts of the job. The role often requires both fieldwork (such as collecting geospatial data) and office-based analysis using specialized software, offering a dynamic and varied workday.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive in photogrammetry?

To thrive in photogrammetry, you need a solid background in mathematics, geography, and spatial analysis, typically supported by a degree in geomatics, surveying, or a related field. Familiarity with photogrammetric software (such as Agisoft Metashape or Pix4D), GIS platforms, CAD tools, and knowledge of remote sensing technologies is crucial, and some employers may prefer professional certifications in geospatial sciences. Strong attention to detail, analytical thinking, and effective communication skills help distinguish top performers. These competencies are essential for producing high-quality spatial data and collaborating across multidisciplinary teams in mapping and surveying projects.

Job description

About Us

Array Labs is building a new way to understand the physical world.

Today, most geospatial systems are built around flat imagery, incomplete elevation models, slow refresh cycles, or narrow-area surveys. The world increasingly needs something better: accurate, frequently updated 3D information about the places, infrastructure, terrain, and activity that shape human decisions.

Array is building that system. We are developing a coordinated fleet of radar satellites designed to create high-resolution 3D data products of the Earth at unprecedented scale, speed, and reliability. Our technology is built to work across wide areas, through clouds, day and night, and to support both commercial and government customers operating in environments where timely physical-world understanding matters.

We design and build our satellites, radar payloads, sensing systems, and data products end-to-end. Our goal is to make 3D geospatial intelligence dramatically more accessible, useful, and operationally relevant for customers in mapping, infrastructure, disaster response, defense, intelligence, energy, telecommunications, mining, and other industries that depend on understanding the changing Earth.

 
About the Job
As a Staff Software Engineer for Computer Vision, you will develop and deploy across all of Array's 3D processing capabilities, including our photogrammetry and radar reconstruction pipelines. The work spans computer vision algorithms and production engineering: you should be equally comfortable reading a paper about unfamiliar algorithms, and shipping new capabilities as production-quality software. The position will work closely with 3D reconstruction scientists, radar algorithms engineers, and product engineers.
Responsibilities
  • Productionize and continuously improve Array's photogrammetry and radar image formation pipelines using industry best practices.
  • Step into individual pipeline stages - bundle adjustment, dense matching, point cloud generation, geometric refinement, geo-referencing - to improve accuracy, robustness, and throughput.
  • Develop and optimize database schemas and storage solutions for managing large-scale 3D geospatial data.
  • Contribute to broader software engineering efforts across the company, including data infrastructure, analytics, and systems to deliver our satellite data to customers.
Basic Qualifications
  • 5+ years of software engineering experience, with a substantial portion focused on computer vision.
  • Strong proficiency in Python and C++, experience with cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, Azure) and containerization technologies (e.g. Docker, Kubernetes).
  • Strong foundation in geometric computer vision, spanning camera modeling, epipolar geometry, and multi-view reconstruction pipelines (stereo, SfM, MVS, bundle adjustment).
  • Excellent communicator, with the ability to make high-quality technical decisions in a startup environment.
Preferred Skills & Experience
  • Experience with geospatial concepts, remote sensing data, or robotics/autonomous vehicle sensor data
  • Familiarity with digital signal processing, radar algorithms, or SAR concepts
  • Familiarity with deep learning approaches to 3D vision (e.g. NeRF, 3D Gaussian Splatting, learned feature matching, or depth estimation)
  • Experience with C++ or CUDA for performance optimization
  • Ability to build visualization tools for geospatial or 3D data (Cesium, Three.js, or similar)
$150,000 - $300,000 a year
Compensation & Benefits
Our hiring and compensation strategy is simple: find uncommonly good people and pay them uncommonly well.
 
We offer high flexibility between salary and equity-based compensation. Final candidates can choose from three compensation mixes: low, medium, or high equity. Equity is a significant component of total compensation, and we aim to provide meaningful ownership for this role.
 
Full-time employees also enjoy a comprehensive benefits package including health, dental, vision, a 401(k) with company match, commuter benefits, and more.
 
 
Interview Process
We will conduct interviews via Google Meet with the potential for an onsite visit; the typical process takes around 3-5 weeks to complete from start to finish.
 
 
Why Join Array
At Array Labs, deep technical expertise meets relentless impact. We prioritize curiosity over hierarchy and bold engineering over incremental gains. Our world-class team across hardware engineering, software, and aerospace works collaboratively to push boundaries and move fast.
 
Our values:
  1. Build What Matters: Create technology that serves customers and advances humanity
  2. Innovate Together: Stay curious, collaborate openly, push boundaries as one team
  3. Employee Centric: Put our people first with a culture of trust, respect, and opportunity
  4. Join industry-leading experts to deliver unprecedented insights about our planet and build the future of Earth observation.
