Build Systems That Matter

The novel challenges we think about at Geopera demand diverse expertise and perspectives. Our interview process is designed to identify thoughtful candidates who bring unique strengths to our multidisciplinary team. If you think this may describe you, we'd love to hear from you regardless of your background or experience. One of the most common questions we get is about whether it is worth applying to work at Geopera if you have not worked on modern GIS or Machine Learning systems in the past. Yes! For some roles, GIS experience is expected, but many technical staff have arrived at Geopera with no GIS experience. If you aren't sure about the GIS experience needed for your role, just ask us. We use shared environments like Colab and Replit for our programming-focused interviews. We'll be very interested in how you think through each problem and analyze the tradeoffs between possible approaches, and we'll also expect you to write, run, and debug your solutions. You'll be allowed to look things up in documentation or on the web, just like you usually can (which is why we'll ask you to share your screen throughout each interview); but it's still important to be familiar with basic syntax, standard libraries, and common idioms in the language you're interviewing in, so that looking things up doesn't consume too much time. Your interview process will also include non-technical questions about your experience and what motivates you, and, of course, you'll have time to ask us about Geopera! We can't wait to meet you.
