Senior Software Developer (C++/Python, Geospatial)

Project Description

This project will leverage huge data sets for extraction, pipelining and ETL focused on geospatial and vector type data sets. USGS type data will be used to develop target data sets using complex methods of manipulation. The position will require critical thinking beyond just core development. The right candidate will have a research mindset and ability to solution with minimal guidance and direction. The project requires a knowledge of distributed and parallel computing with ability to coordinate across multiple systems.

Responsibilities

• Data processing (geospatial) and work on point cloud data sets.
• Use Python for data processing and C++ libraries for development (i.e. data infrastructure).
• Requires critical thinking, solutioning problems and communicating effectively.

Mandatory Skills

• Python
• Pandas
• Navigation > GeoPandas
• C++
• Point Cloud
• AWS Data Pipeline
• Parallel Programming
• Navigation > Geospatial Data Abstraction Library (GDAL)
• Navigation > Raster formats (ESRI Grid, GeoTIFF, JPEG 2000, NITF)
• VECTOR

Nice-to-Have Skills
