• Experience in Agile development environments.
• Exposure to Azure, including ADF, Storage or Azure DevOps.
• Familiarity with AI-assisted development tools such as GitHub Copilot or similar tools.

WHAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR

Someone who combines strong GIS knowledge with application-development capability and can comfortably work between business requirements and technical implementation.

Experience with Web GIS, enterprise GIS, network GIS, GeoServer/ArcGIS Server, spatial databases and backend development would be particularly relevant.
