3+ years of hands-on experience in implementing interactive visualizations with a focus on performance optimization, including precomputation strategies and server-side processing.
Experience with software development methodologies like Agile or Scrum.

What we would like you to have:

Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with the ability to translate research findings into tech solutions.
Familiarity with accessibility standards (e.g., WCAG 2.2, ARIA labels).
Experience with testing frameworks (e.g., Cypress, Jest) for visualization UIs.
Experience visualizing multiple types of large amounts of geospatial data in a performant web environment.
Ability to work and communicate effectively with internal and external clients to determine project needs.
Ability to manage multiple competing priorities.
