What We're Looking For
Michael Baker International is seeking a Staff Software Engineer Geospatial & AI to join the DATAMARK Technologies team in a fully remote capacity, supporting clients and operations across the United States. In this senior individual contributor role, you will lead the design and development of cloud-native geospatial applications with deeply integrated AI capabilities, drive autonomous workflow engineering, and shape the AI-assisted development practices that define how the team builds and ships software. You will bring technical depth across full-stack development, geospatial platforms, and enterprise AI tooling — and you will apply that expertise to build systems that perform inside mission-critical public safety and enterprise environments.
This is a remote work schedule with no assigned office location. No sponsorship is provided for this role; all candidates must be eligible to work for any employer in the United States without restrictions indefinitely.
What You'll Do
- Deliver scalable, AI-native microservices and full-stack geospatial applications that meet performance, reliability, and security standards for mission-critical deployment environments.
- Lead the integration of AI and machine learning capabilities into geospatial applications using enterprise AI platforms, ensuring production-grade quality and measurable operational impact.
- Develop autonomous AI systems for spatial data quality validation, geospatial analysis, and automated workflows that reduce manual intervention and increase data fidelity.
- Drive the AI-assisted developer operations practice forward by owning agent frameworks, intelligent DevOps tooling, and automated code review pipelines that accelerate team velocity.
- Architect serverless solutions and RESTful APIs for geospatial data services, ensuring scalability, maintainability, and alignment with modern API design standards.
- Implement and optimize CI/CD pipelines using infrastructure-as-code principles, achieving consistent, repeatable, and auditable delivery across environments.
- Execute integrations with enterprise GIS platforms and spatial data processing systems, ensuring data flows are accurate, performant, and interoperable across the technology stack.
- Strengthen the team's engineering capability through active mentorship, rigorous code reviews, and the establishment of best practices that raise collective technical standards.
- Ensure security guardrails, multi-tenant isolation, and compliance controls are embedded into AI-powered features from design through deployment.
- Maintain accountability for the overall health, quality, and evolution of geospatial and AI engineering deliverables across the products you own.
