Design, operate, and evolve Battle Road’s geospatial data pipelines, supporting the ingestion, processing, storage, and delivery of data sets used by the simulation. - Source, evaluate, and integrate new geospatial datasets and data products (e.g., terrain, land cover, infrastructure, boundaries, mobility-relevant layers) that unlock new simulation features and capabilities
Translate simulation and runtime requirements into geospatial data products, ensuring datasets are fit for purpose across scale, performance, and fidelity constraints
Administer and optimize geospatial services and infrastructure (including GeoServer and related tooling) to ensure reliability, performance, and secure access in both development and production environments
Implement and enforce geospatial data stewardship best practices, including metadata standards, versioning, provenance, governance, and quality assurance
Design and maintain PostgreSQL/PostGIS-backed data stores, optimizing schemas, queries, and access patterns for large-scale simulation and analytical workloads
Collaborate with engine, simulation, and AI teams to ensure geospatial data is aligned with runtime needs, performant at scale, and consumable by downstream systems
What We Look For
Geoserver Administration – 3 to 5 years experience installing, configuring, tuning, scaling, and securing Geoserver deployments (including cluster/HA setups, REST API usage, user/role configuration, SLD/stylesheet management, and WMS/WFS/WCS endpoint provision)
PostgreSQL/PostGIS Expertise - 3 to 5 years experience database administration for spatial workloads, including schema design for raster and vector data, spatial indexes, backup/recovery, query optimization, and JSON/array data handling
Data Cataloging & Metadata - Ability to implement, manage, and extend open-source geospatial metadata catalog/dictionary tools (GeoNode, CKAN, GeoNetwork), including FGDC/ISO metadata standards, schema extension, and discovery interface customization
Experience integrating, managing, and synchronizing global spatial datasets (e.g., OpenStreetMap, satellite/basemaps, government releases), working with multi-format, high-volume data assets
Experience with regular cross-functional coordination with GIS/data engineers, software developers, cloud infrastructure teams, and non-technical stakeholders to deliver outcomes as part of multidisciplinary teams
