GIS Python Developer - 12 Months - Outside IR35

GIS Python Developer required by a leading tech company for an initial 12‑month contract. It's fully remote, outside IR35, and will likely extend due to the amount of work they have in the pipeline.

The Role

You will be part of a rapidly growing software team helping to deliver their leading analytics application that is being used to help drive critical decision‑making from gathering large amounts of intelligence on the human population and its use around the world – tech for good, you could say!

As a GIS Python Developer, you will be responsible for various tasks, mainly focusing on Python development to combine geospatial datasets to automate the creation of sizeable subnational index data sets. The main tools you will be using day to day are:

• GIS – PostGIS or ESRI knowledge (Ideally Raster Data Sets)
• AWS

You

Our customer is looking for someone well versed with the above tools and technologies, and they need someone who has a strong understanding of Geospatial Data and is willing to roll their sleeves up as this project is critical for them.

As a Senior member of the team, they expect you to pick up their tooling pretty quickly, work closely with other people in the group and help build upon an already industry‑leading product.

Rate & Process

Depending on the candidate's preference, this urgent role based in Bath can offer a hybrid or fully remote working model.

It's a two‑stage interview process consisting of a call with the Head of Engineering and other team members.

We can organise interviews within a few days as this is an absolute priority across the business.
