Geospatial Engineer (gn)

As a Geospatial Engineer, you are working on a product that is constantly evolving.

With your design and development skills you will find ways to improve our geospatial data sets. Therefore you get excited by the idea to have great influence on our unique product offering.

Our technology
We are combining underwater hyperspectral imaging and AI-based automated data processing to map the seafloor quicker, more efficiently and in greater detail. By ground-truthing aerial and satellite imagery, we help to unlock blue nature-based solutions around the globe and contribute to revealing the seafloor’s true economic and ecological value.

Our team
Over the past couple of years, our engineering team has steadily grown to 10+ people. Since we do both hardware and software, we have a wide range of specialities for a relatively small team ranging from mechanical design to electronics and software.

You will be part of the Data Science Team, and together with our Scientists and Engineers, your task is to design meaningful datasets from the data we are collecting. You are actively helping the blue carbon economy to better understand the sea floor. In addition, you will be responsible for providing technical support and training to users of the geospatial technologies. Hence, collaboration, communication, and coordination are a big part of success in your role.
