The mission

Grow SkyWatch’s data products beyond 2D imagery, into 3D, elevation, vessel tracking and location-based vector data, and get them into the hands of the customers who need them.

These products will become a large portion of SkyWatch’s data sales, and this is our first dedicated hire for them. Your job is to make them products customers can easily find, buy and use, wherever they work.

The role

You take over our current 3D work and lead it and the 3D work that follows. You then extend the same approach to the data types after it. You work alongside our image processing team, and your products reach commercial GIS users, cities and defence customers. This is a broad role. When the business needs geospatial judgment beyond 3D, you are the person we turn to.

We are an integrator. Third-party capabilities are our first choice for producing data products, so most of this job is integration, upstream with providers and downstream into the places customers work. The geospatial depth we value most is knowing how these products serve our customers’ use cases.

Key responsibilities

- Take over and grow 3D. Pick up the 3D products we already produce,



run them reliably, and lead what comes next.

- Wire products into how customers buy. Connect our data products to discovery, purchasing and publishing, so a customer can find, order and receive them without help. Integrate third-party processing and data providers upstream, and GIS platforms and marketplaces downstream.

- Add the next data types. Bring elevation, vessel tracking (AIS), and location-based vector data into the product line, choosing partners and sources on fit, quality and cost.

- Build applications that show the value. Build geospatial applications that put these products to work, layering 3D with other data: AIS, road traffic, weather, GNSS radio occultation and more. Think of what a city would want over its 3D digital twin to manage and plan.

- Package terrain for platforms that can’t phone home. Deliver elevation products to defence and industry standards for drones, vessels and autonomous systems that operate without a network or satellite positioning.

- Own quality. Accuracy, datums and QC, checked automatically and documented against the specs our customers accept.

- Work across the team. Lend a hand on our in-house image processing for other imagery sources when that is where the work is.

- Build with AI. Use AI agents to write, test and run integration and pipeline code, and put automated checks on the output.

Who you are

- An integrator. You reach for the best existing capability before building your own, and you are positive at making other people’s systems work together.

- Use-case minded. You know how a city planner,
