We are looking for a skilled and analytical Geospatial Engineer to join our team. You will be responsible for designing, developing, and maintaining geospatial data systems and applications. The ideal candidate has hands-on experience with GIS software, spatial databases, and geospatial analysis, and can support both technical development and domain-specific spatial problem solving.
Key Responsibilities:
* Design, develop, and manage GIS databases and geospatial data pipelines
* Perform spatial analysis and geoprocessing to support project goals and decision-making
* Develop custom GIS tools and applications using Python, JavaScript (ArcGIS API, Leaflet, etc.), or similar technologies
* Create high-quality maps, visualizations, and reports for both internal and external stakeholders
* Collect, clean, and validate spatial data from various sources (satellite imagery, GPS, survey data, etc.)
* Support the integration of geospatial data into business systems, dashboards, and enterprise applications
* Collaborate with cross-functional teams (engineers, planners, analysts, field teams) to meet geospatial requirements
* Stay current with advancements in GIS technologies, open-source tools, and spatial data standards
Required Qualifications:
* Bachelor's or Master's degree in Geoinformatics, Geography, Environmental Science, Computer Science, or a related field
* 2+ years of experience in GIS or geospatial engineering roles
* Proficiency with GIS software (e.g., ArcGIS, QGIS, MapInfo)
* Strong knowledge of spatial data formats (Shapefiles, GeoJSON, KML, etc.) and coordinate systems
* Experience with spatial databases (e.g., PostGIS, SpatiaLite)
* Scripting/programming skills in Python, SQL, or JavaScript for geospatial tasks
* Familiarity with web mapping tools (e.g., Leaflet, OpenLayers, ArcGIS Online)
