  • Develop and maintain front-end components using Angular or React, collaborating closely with design/product to deliver accessible, responsive, and maintainable UI.
  • Design systems that transform large volumes of field-captured data into structured outputs (tables, summaries, and map visualizations) that are clear, consistent, and client-ready.
  • Implement report rendering pipelines that generate fixed-layout PDFs, including embedded maps and geospatial context, with a focus on quality and readability.
  • Solve complex visualization challenges such as label density, overlapping map annotations, and maintaining clarity and scale in constrained PDF layouts.

  • Proficiency with Git and modern version control workflows., * Experience with PDF generation tools or document rendering frameworks (e.g., JSReport or similar), including layout and typography considerations.
  • Familiarity with geospatial technologies and mapping concepts (e.g., Esri platforms, spatial data, map tiles, or custom mapping solutions).
  • Experience with containerization and orchestration (Docker, Kubernetes) in production environments.
  • Experience with cloud platforms such as AWS (EC2, S3, ECS) and cloud-native design patterns.
  • Experience building and maintaining CI/CD pipelines, automated testing frameworks, and observability tooling (logging/metrics/tracing).
  • Exposure to performance tuning for large datasets and complex rendering workflows, with a track record of innovative problem solving.

Requirements

  • B.S. in Computer Science or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
  • 7+ years of professional software development experience, including ownership of production systems and end-to-end delivery.
