Blackshark AI - Software Engineers & Platform Engineer
Requirements
• Build and optimize preprocessing pipelines that ingest, tile, and transform geospatial imagery (GeoTIFF, multispectral, SAR, COG) for downstream ML inference • Develop postprocessing services that convert model outputs into production-ready deliverables: segmentation masks, probability maps, and vector detections in GeoPackage format • Design resilient, memory-efficient services for processing large-scale imagery through distributed worker pools • Work on our unified Huntr-to-Replika pipeline, automating the flow from detection outputs to 3D-ready terrain tiles with auto-generated configuration • Tackle challenges around coordinate reference systems, spatial indexing, and data format interoperability • Optimize for the unique characteristics of geospatial workloads: memory-bound processing, batch-heavy operations, and streaming large raster datasets • Strong practical knowledge of Python with experience building data-intensive applications • Experience with geospatial data formats, GDAL, or raster/vector processing • Understanding of coordinate reference systems and spatial data transformations • Experience with data pipelines, ETL processes, or batch processing systems • Familiarity with async processing patterns, task queues (Redis), and worker architectures • Solid understanding of PostgreSQL and working with large datasets • Strong software engineering fundamentals: testing, CI/CD, observability, reliability • You're outcome-oriented and enjoy optimizing systems for performance and scale • Hands-on experience with Kubernetes in production environments • Familiarity with imagery processing or computer vision pipelines • Experience with memory optimization for large file processing • Background deploying systems in regulated or air-gapped environments • Python, FastAPI • PostgreSQL, Redis • GDAL, rasterio, GeoPandas • Docker, Kubernetes (EKS, K3S) • AWS (with on-prem and edge deployment targets) • Own the data backbone: Your services are the foundation that every detection and 3D reconstruction flows through • Geospatial at scale: Process imagery spanning continents, handling formats from commercial satellites to tactical drones • Diverse deployment challenges: Build systems that run in AWS, on customer infrastructure, or on a laptop in the field • Growth trajectory: Join ahead of our Series B as we expand into new markets and scale the platform • Strong technical culture: Work alongside ML Engineers, GIS specialists, and 3D graphics engineers solving novel problems • Healthy work-life balance with flexible working arrangements • Competitive compensation with personalized benefits including learning opportunities, mental wellbeing programs, and healthcare
