About BigGeoBigGeo is the Spatial Cloud.We help companies manage and access the world's spatial data.Any size, any slice, any insight.Delivered in seconds. We're building something that hasn't existed before: a new layer of the internet where the "where" and "when" behind every decision is instantly clear, programmable, and actionable. Our platform removes the complexity that has kept spatial data locked in silos for decades and replaces it with speed, precision, and control.We're a Calgary-based company, early and moving fast, with real customers, real infrastructure, and a clear point of view on where the world is going.Why BigGeo Exists and Why People Build HereMost companies are spatially blind. They know what their data says, but not where or when things actually happen. That gap costs real money, creates real risk, and limits what AI can actually do in the physical world. BigGeo exists to close that gap. We're not building another tool. We're building the rails that connect the planet's moving data to the systems that run the world. That's a big problem, and it takes people who care about doing things right, not just fast.People build here because: The problem is real and the category is open. We're not competing for the middle of an existing market, we're defining a new one. Your work shapes what the category becomes. Your fingerprints are on the architecture. We're at the stage where the decisions you make today become the foundation tomorrow. What you ship matters. We run on clarity, not politics. We move with purpose. No bureaucratic drag, just a team that agrees on the mission and gets to work. You'll grow fast because the problems are hard. Spatial data at scale is a genuinely difficult domain. If you want to be stretched, you'll be stretched. We're building for longevity. We're not chasing hype cycles. We're building infrastructure, the kind that compounds in value over time and earns the trust of the companies that depend on it. The RoleBigGeo is hiring a Spatial Data Onboarding Specialist to bring new spatial datasets into the Spatial Cloud and make sure they are ready to power real-world intelligence applications. This role sits at the intersection of external data providers and internal engineering teams, and it has direct influence on the quality, reliability, and breadth of the data ecosystem that the platform runs on.You will own how spatial datasets are prepared, validated, and integrated into the platform. You will guide data partners through the onboarding process, clean and transform incoming data into Spatial Cloud-compatible structures, build and improve validation workflows, and work directly with data and platform engineers to make sure every dataset is indexed, documented, and accessible through BigGeo's APIs. This is a high-visibility role in a category-defining company. The datasets you onboard become part of the operational fabric that organizations, systems, and AI use to make real-world decisions. The work moves quickly, and the standard for data quality is high.Key ResponsibilitiesDataset Onboarding Partner with external data providers and internal teams to onboard new spatial datasets into the Spatial Cloud. Guide providers through the preparation steps required to meet platform standards, translating technical requirements into clear partner guidance. Confirm that every dataset is structured and formatted for Spatial Cloud compatibility before it enters the platform. Data Preparation and Transformation Clean, transform, and organize spatial datasets so they are ready for ingestion, indexing, and query. Standardize data structures across providers so the platform stays interoperable as the data ecosystem grows. Optimize source data so it can be processed efficiently at scale. Data Validation and Quality Verify the accuracy, completeness, and geographic integrity of every dataset before it is released into the Spatial Cloud.
