📋 Description

• Design and implement reusable pipelines for ingesting, standardizing, validating, and publishing geospatial datasets. • Build and maintain authoritative reference layers including PLSS/CadNSDI, land status, Surface Management Agency information, split estate, corridors, critical habitat, and other relevant spatial datasets. • Transform and publish geospatial datasets using GeoParquet and maintain PostGIS serving layers for application and spatial-query workloads. • Develop automated workflows for georeferencing scanned maps, plats, location maps, and survey drawings. • Convert information extracted from maps and documents into validated vector geometry. • Work with Content Pipeline Engineers to combine OCR and document extraction results with geospatial processing. • Interpret and transform legal descriptions, bearings, distances, coordinates, parcel information, and survey data into geospatial features. • Develop reusable processing patterns for well, lease, unit, communitization agreement, right-of-way, project-area, and other permitting-related geometries. • Implement spatial joins, intersections, overlays, proximity calculations, and other spatial transformations. • Manage coordinate reference systems, transformations, spatial precision, and indexing. • Implement automated geometry validation, topology checks, and reconciliation processes. • Preserve provenance between generated geometries, source documents, and originating systems. • Optimize geospatial datasets and spatial queries for application and analytical performance. • Establish reusable GIS engineering standards and document processing workflows.

🎯 Requirements

• Bachelor's degree in Geographic Information Systems, Geography, Geomatics, Computer Science, Engineering, or a related technical discipline. • 5+ years of GIS engineering, geospatial data engineering, software engineering, or related experience. • Strong Python and SQL skills with experience building automated geospatial data pipelines. • Hands-on experience with GeoParquet and PostGIS. • Strong experience working with vector and raster geospatial data. • Experience with geospatial libraries and tools such as GDAL, GeoPandas, Shapely, PROJ, Rasterio, or comparable technologies. • Strong understanding of coordinate reference systems, spatial transformations, spatial indexing, and geometry validation. • Experience with spatial joins, overlays, topology validation, geometry repair, and other spatial-processing operations. • Experience georeferencing raster maps, scanned maps, or similar source material. • Experience with AWS S3 or comparable cloud object storage and cloud-native geospatial processing patterns. • Ability to design repeatable and automated geospatial pipelines rather than relying primarily on manual desktop GIS workflows.
