Overview

We are seeking a Sr. GIS Software Developer to join our team in Orlando, FL.

The GIS Developer will lead the development, enhancement, integration, and long-term technical evolution for the geospatial aspects of an enterprise asset management commercial software product. This role requires deep expertise in Esri software development technologies, modern software engineering practices, and spatial data management.

The successful candidate will serve as both a software developer and a geospatial technology subject matter expert, responsible for developing new features, maintaining existing functionality, evaluating emerging Esri technologies, and ensuring the product remains aligned with advancements across the Esri platform. This individual will actively monitor Esri product releases, software updates, and industry trends to assess the impact of new Esri capabilities or architecture changes on the software product and/or identify opportunities for innovation and continuous improvement.

Your role

As a Senior GIS Software Developer, you will:

  • Design, develop, test, and maintain geospatial software components for a commercial software platform.
  • Create and maintain integrations between Esri technologies and enterprise systems, databases, APIs, and third-party applications.
  • Collaborate with technical development, implementation and business stakeholders to translate requirements into technical solutions.
  • Contribute to solution architecture and technical design decisions.

  • Decision-making (Supervision received; independent judgment or initiative; consequence of error): Works under the guidance of solution architect and product manager with assignments provided in terms of broad objectives, product priorities, customer needs, and delivery expectations. Acts independently on technical matters pertaining to GIS development, implementation approaches, defect resolution, support escalation, and release readiness within areas of expertise. Errors in judgment may result in delayed releases, customer support impacts, implementation rework, product instability, or increased operational dependency on senior technical resources.
  • Work direction given to others (Titles and number of personnel; type of direction given): May coordinate work of other developers or support staff for GIS development assignments, releases, architecture initiatives, and customer escalations.
