Ryz Labs; Argentina; A distancia; ARS 900.000 - 1.300.000; Jornada completa

Descripción de la vacante

RYZ Labs is seeking a Senior Engineer in Argentina to own critical parts of the platform—from system design to production code, with emphasis on geospatial data handling. The role focuses on geometry extraction from documents, mapping to real-world coordinates, and exporting results for field use.

You will work on geospatial distance, routing, and related features while maintaining high data quality and reliable failure-safe behavior, within a remote, LatAm/US distributed team.

Formación

• 5+ years of experience building production software with increasing ownership of architecture and technical decisions.
• Strong production experience with TypeScript and Node.js.
• Hands-on experience with maps, coordinates, geometry, or geospatial data in real-world apps.
• Experience with GIS, GeoJSON, KML, routing, asset mapping, fleet tracking, logistics, or related geospatial domains.
• Experience working with messy real-world data.
• Ability to ensure data quality and when outputs cannot be determined.
• Strong written and verbal English communication.

Responsabilidades

• Own parts of the platform architecture with growing responsibility as the team expands.
• Lead the map and geometry layer: extract geometry, place at real latitude/longitude, measure, and export for field use.
• Develop geospatial distance, routing, and hauling-related functionality.
• Write production code and make significant architectural decisions.
• Maintain code quality through reviews, standards, and CI processes.
• Ensure monitoring, observability, and failure-safe designs for uncertain outputs.

Descripción del empleo

Ryz Labs is looking for a Senior Engineer to take ownership of key parts of the platform, from system design and architecture to production code and long-term reliability.

This role has one specific requirement: hands-on experience working with maps, coordinates, and geospatial data. A major part of the platform involves extracting geometry from documents, placing it at real-world coordinates, measuring it, and exporting it for use in the field.

Requirements

• 5+ years of experience building production software, with increasing ownership of architecture and technical decisions.
• Strong production experience with TypeScript and Node.js.
• Hands-on experience working with maps, coordinates, geometry, or geospatial data in a real-world application.
• Experience with one or more of the following: GIS, GeoJSON, KML, routing, asset mapping, fleet tracking, logistics, agriculture, drones, or similar geospatial applications.
• Experience working with messy real-world data, including inconsistent formats, missing fields, and unreliable or incomplete sources.
• Experience building systems where incorrect outputs can have meaningful business consequences.
• Strong judgment around data quality, correctness, and when a system should explicitly indicate that an answer cannot be determined.
• Strong written and verbal English communication skills.

Nice to Have

• Background in civil engineering, surveying, asphalt, construction estimating, or related fields.
• Familiarity with construction plans, stationing, alignments, and pay items.
• Experience with hauling, logistics, routing, or haul-distance calculations.
• Experience with DOT bid documents.
• Familiarity with tools such as Bluebeam, B2W, HeavyBid, or HardDollar.
• Experience with 3D geospatial data, including terrain and surface models, point clouds, cut/fill volumes, or similar applications.
• Experience with tools or libraries such as Turf.js, proj4js, PostGIS, or comparable geospatial technologies.

What You'll Own

• Parts of the platform architecture, with increasing ownership as the team grows.
• The map and geometry layer: extracting geometry from documents, placing it at real latitude and longitude, measuring it, and exporting it for field use.
• Geospatial distance, routing, and hauling-related functionality.
• Production code and significant architectural decisions.
• Code quality through reviews, engineering standards, and CI.
• Monitoring, observability, and systems designed to fail safely when an output cannot be determined reliably.
