Software Engineer - Data Plane

A Software Engineer role focused on building data processing pipelines for geospatial imagery in a scalable AI platform that provides real-time insights from satellite, aerial, and drone data.

Location: Remote (EU)

Salary: €56,000+ gross per year, depending on experience and qualifications

Responsibilities

• Build and optimize preprocessing pipelines that ingest, tile, and transform geospatial imagery (GeoTIFF, multispectral, SAR, COG) for downstream ML inference
• Develop postprocessing services that convert model outputs into production-ready deliverables: segmentation masks, probability maps, and vector detections in GeoPackage format
• Design resilient, memory-efficient services for processing large-scale imagery through distributed worker pools
• Work on our unified Huntr-to-Replika pipeline, automating the flow from detection outputs to 3D-ready terrain tiles with auto-generated configuration
• Tackle challenges around coordinate reference systems, spatial indexing, and data format interoperability
• Optimize for the unique characteristics of geospatial workloads: memory-bound processing, batch-heavy operations, and streaming large raster datasets

Requirements

• Strong practical knowledge of Python with experience building data-intensive applications
• Experience with geospatial data formats, GDAL, or raster/vector processing
• Understanding of coordinate reference systems and spatial data transformations
• Experience with data pipelines, ETL processes, or batch processing systems
• Familiarity with async processing patterns, task queues (Redis), and worker architectures
• Solid understanding of PostgreSQL and working with large datasets
• Strong software engineering fundamentals: testing, CI/CD, observability, reliability
• Outcome-oriented mindset and enjoyment in optimizing systems for performance and scale

Benefits

• Own the data backbone: Your services are the foundation that every detection and 3D reconstruction flows through
• Geospatial at scale: Process imagery spanning continents, handling formats from commercial satellites to tactical drones
• Diverse deployment challenges: Build systems that run in AWS, on customer infrastructure, or on a laptop in the field
• Growth trajectory: Join ahead of our Series B as we expand into new markets and scale the platform
• Strong technical culture: Work alongside ML Engineers, GIS specialists, and 3D graphics engineers solving novel problems
• Healthy work-life balance with flexible working arrangements
• Competitive compensation with personalized benefits including learning opportunities, mental wellbeing programs, and healthcare
