ClimateTech Senior Fullstack Engineer – Earth Observation
Salary: €65,000 – €85,000 + equity
Location: Fully remote – Europe or UK based.

Forest management can be challenging. Cut too much and you’re causing unnecessary damage, too little and the risk of wildfire or damage to infrastructure can be devastating.

Vegetation monitoring may not sound very exciting but building earth observation software, utilising satellite imagery and Machine Learning with remote sensing and geospatial presents interesting challenges.

These systems are used to efficiently manage resources and team activities, saving time and money.

Most importantly though, this saves homes, businesses and services from blackouts caused by seasonal and extreme weather events. It’s a game changer in energy and climate resilience.

The company has grown rapidly since the end of 2021. There are 70 people now, with around 45 of those in development and data science across 5 teams with one core product, each team being quite specialised.

The company is hoping to find people with experience in earth observation or some familiarity with image processing and GIS/Geospatial technologies.

You’ll focus on building dashboards and web apps connecting various aerial imagery and satellite data to customers, enabling decision-making. You’ll work closely with product managers in an Agile environment. The company’s tech teams have grown heavily in the last 12 months and will continue to do so through the next 12+ months following the close of their Series A fundraiser.

They use Google Cloud Platform and Python alongside modern Typescript, ES6, ES7 and frameworks like React and NodeJS. Their products are very geospatial and remote sensing focused so experience with Python and GIS tools or geospatial data will be prioritised.

As with most dev roles these days you’ll do quite a lot of work with APIs, FASTAPI specifically, so browser API and backend API building is a must.

They’re keen to find someone with experience working in startups, ideally in the space sector, with imagery in some capacity, or with data pipelines and machine learning products.

Following that, a real passion for climate solutions is something they’ll need to see.

They care about their staff. They have a 13% vacation stipend to send you on some epic holidays contribute to your training and development and operate truly flexibly – so long as you’re available and overlap with the team (+/- 3-hour CET is best) you can work when you choose.

If this sounds like a bit of you, please reach out. They’re remote first and will consider people anywhere in Europe.
