Familiarity with geospatial standards and formats (GeoJSON, Shapefile, GeoTIFF, WMS/WFS, etc.)
 Experience with GIS tools such as QGIS, ArcGIS, or equivalent
Solid understanding of coordinate reference systems (CRS), projections, and spatial indexing
Experience applying machine learning techniques to spatial problems
 Ability to communicate findings clearly in a fully remote, async environment
 
 Nice to Have
 
Experience with remote sensing or satellite imagery analysis
Familiarity with cloud-native geospatial tools (PostGIS on AWS RDS, Google Earth Engine, etc.)
Exposure to spatial data infrastructure (GeoServer, MapServer, Mapbox, Deck.gl)
Experience with big geospatial data processing (Apache Sedona, H3, S2)
Knowledge of Docker and containerized data workflows
Familiarity with CI/CD and version control best practices
