C++ Software Developer II - Raster Analysis

Overview

The ArcGIS Spatial Analyst team creates raster analysis tools for the worldwide GIS community. These tools help solve spatial analytical problems, address real-world issues, and enable our users to make better decisions.

We are a team of passionate engineers who can break down complex problems into manageable solutions. As a C++ Software Developer, you will help us design and build cutting-edge raster analysis tools for Esri's desktop, ArcGIS Online, and ArcGIS Enterprise products.

Come join our team to help advance these powerful ArcGIS capabilities through leveraging cloud computing.

Responsibilities

• Write, build, test, and debug code


• Design and implement software components that follow industry-standard design patterns


• Find, analyze, and fix software bugs and performance problems using automated test frameworks


• Develop and maintain tools in GIS application areas such as:




• Statistical analysis


• Surface analysis (terrain intervisibility, surface properties)


• Suitability analysis


• Hydrology


• Multidimensional scientific data support and analysis


• Collaborate with your team to envision and define new GIS tools based on user requirements, such as:




• Statistical analysis tools for local, focal, and zonal operations


• Climate risk analysis (fire/flood modelling, coastal erosion, and more)


• Other kinds of geographic-related risk analysis (pipeline burst, large event evacuation planning, and more)


• Spatial analysis on networks


• Multidimensional analysis


• Visualization experiences for multi-dimensional data

Requirements

• 2+ years of C++ experience


• Knowledge of distributed, parallel, GPU accelerated computation


• Familiarity with SaaS architecture


• Understanding of interaction between desktop and server/online (cloud based) analysis (For example: What’s REST? What’s a web service? What’s Kubernetes?)


• Understanding of machine learning as a tool for prediction and classification as required by various application areas


• Bachelor's degree in applied mathematics/statistics, physics, engineering, computer science, or geography

Recommended Qualifications

• C#/WPF experience


• Familiarity with agile software development process


• Experience with GIS, raster analysis, and spatial analyst concepts (For example: What’s a raster or an image? What’s weighted distance analysis?)


• Formal training or on-the-job exposure to applied GIS (For example: environmental science, civil engineering, or local government)


• Master’s degree or Ph.D. in applied mathematics/statistics, physics, engineering, computer science, or geography
