Company Overview
BigGeo is the Spatial Cloud.

We help companies manage and access the world’s spatial data.

Any size, any slice, any insight.

Delivered in seconds.

BigGeo is defining a new category of infrastructure that makes real-world data usable at scale. Spatial data powers decisions across logistics, climate, infrastructure, energy, cities, and AI systems, yet it remains fragmented and difficult to operate in real time.

The Spatial Cloud provides a unified architecture that allows spatial data to be managed, accessed, computed, and delivered instantly across organizations and systems. By turning spatial data into a high-performance operational layer, BigGeo enables people, systems, and AI to act on real-world intelligence together.

Our platform exists to remove the complexity that historically made spatial data slow, difficult, and expert-dependent.

Why BigGeo Exists and Why People Build Here
Joining BigGeo means contributing to technology that is shaping a new category as it takes form. The team BigGeo team is AI-enabled, cross-functional, and highly collaborative. We value ownership, clarity, and leveraging AI tools to build incredible momentum. The work moves quickly, expectations are high, and impact is visible because what we build is used in real-world environments.

At BigGeo, you will:

Contribute to systems that influence how spatial data is managed and applied

Leverage cutting edge AI tools so that your work shows up in real, high-impact use cases

Collaborate with a multidisciplinary team solving complex, meaningful problems

Work in an environment where autonomy is trusted, results matter, and AI tools are harnessed to boost creativity, output, and results

If you want to do work with real-world impact and help build foundational technology that changes how organizations understand and use spatial intelligence, BigGeo is the place to build that future.

Role Overview
BigGeo is looking for a Platform Engineer to build and operate the core infrastructure that powers the Spatial Cloud.
