We're looking for a top-notch Android developer to help us bring our open
source geospatial platform to mobile users.

The world is seeing an explosion in the amount and variety of
location-based information. At the same time, open source software is
making better analytical tools more widely available.

OpenGeo is at the intersection: we develop open source platforms that make
it easier to manage and share geospatial data.

This is a great opportunity to join a growing business, solve interesting
technical problems, and wear the mantle of Android ambassador in our
fantastic team.

*Responsibilities*

   - Develop mobile components and applications that leverage the OpenGeo
   Suite
   - Work with customers to gather requirements and propose solutions
   - Participate in robust open source communities that reward great
   engineering
   - Create documentation and provide technical support, helping users get
   more out of OpenGeo software

*You Offer*

   - Outstanding engineering talent proven by great results and significant
   open source contributions
   - 3+ years of Android development experience, and in-depth understanding
   of the Android SDK and its apps development ecosystem, including subtle
   differences between OS versions and manufacturer implementations.
   - Hands-on experience developing and supporting reusable Android
   components. You write well-abstracted, reusable and efficient code.
   - Knowledge of GIS/geospatial software, particularly PostGIS, GeoServer,
   and/or OpenLayers
   - Interest in teaching and training others on technical topics

*We Offer*

Competitive salaries, top-notch benefits (stock options, 5 weeks of
vacation, medical/dental/vision, 401k with match, snacks!), and fantastic
colleagues. Our casual-yet-focused environment is a uniquely satisfying
place for high performers. Most importantly, we offer the opportunity to
help us build an innovative company that spreads and supports open source
software and principles.

*About OpenGeo*

OpenGeo is a small but growing organization focused on bringing the best
enterprise open source geospatial software to organizations and governments
around the world. Our team is distributed from Austria to Argentina, with
offices in New York, NY, Washington DC, and Victoria, BC. For this
position, we are looking for candidates who can work from one of our
offices.
