This role is ideal for a developer who enjoys tackling complex technical challenges and wants to build software that strengthens community resilience and advances environmental stewardship. This position is based out of our Raleigh, NC office, with the option to be remote.

  • Build production‑ready cloud and desktop applications that deliver advanced geospatial, analytical, and modeling capabilities
  • Translate business and system requirements into scalable, maintainable software designs.
  • Learn and apply concepts in water-resources engineering, including flood modeling and mapping workflows
  • Develop automated unit, integration, and functional tests to ensure long‑term code quality and maintainability
  • Collaborate with cross‑functional teams - including civil engineers, GIS specialists, and project managers - to define technical approaches and deliver high‑value solutions
  • Participate in design reviews, code reviews, and continuous improvement of software development practices
