You will also build and test the threading, user interface, language control, software update, and logging functions relied upon by Esri's desktop GIS application development teams. On a typical day, you will work with developers and other product engineers to evaluate functionality and program automated test code. Your communication skills will be essential as you interface with other development teams.

  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills
  • Ability to organize your own work effectively, and contribute to the team’s work item prioritization
  • Bachelor’s in computer science, GIS, geography, engineering, mathematics, or related field

Recommended Qualifications

  • Master’s in computer science, GIS, geography, engineering, mathematics, or related field
  • Familiarity with the Esri ArcGIS platform or other GIS and mapping products

  • Working knowledge of desktop or web software development patterns and technologies, including .NET, Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) and the MVVM design pattern
  • Experience with software testing, test automation, and unit test authoring
