Maxar is searching for a Software Engineer to join our Raster Product Innovation and Delivery (RaPID) team, based in Westminster, CO.

If you enjoy working collaboratively to encode complicated business workflows and deal with massive datasets to create beautiful mosaic imagery this would be an excellent opportunity for you to explore.
