Urban Tree Scan Driver for North America region

We are looking for static and mobile laser scanning professionals (TLS, Terrestrial Laser Scanner and MLS, Mobile Laser Scanner Operators). Our new colleagues will oversee LiDAR scanning of urban trees in United States, completing pre- and post-processing, geodetic and GIS tasks.

Apply your skills and knowledge to feed the greehill SmartCity platform and support cities become more resilient to the adverse effects of climate change with the data you collect.

Who we are

As the global pioneer for digital twins of urban forests, we provide very detailed digital copies of each individual tree in a city. With our solution we support the digital transformation of smart cities world-wide. Combining the latest laser scanning technology with the most advanced AI & machine learning methods, greehill enables cities to be radically more productive in their daily operations and to improve the well-being of citizens through a greener, healthier, and more resilient urban environment. We currently operate offices in Budapest, Berlin, Singapore, San Francisco and Paris.

The challenge

In order to make the greehill platform work on an even larger scale, we need to scan trees in the parks and streets of cities. Your skills and knowledge will ensure the precise preparations, the planning of survey projects, and the provision of data acquisition and processing. At parks you will be assisted by special, electric powered scanning vehicles, built together with an RTK GNSS System and a Riegl scanner. On the road you will operate a mobile laser scanner with advanced panoramic camera, where GPS and IMU supports the accurate and fast data collection.

• Previous experience with Riegl mobile laser scanner

We offer

• Opportunity to develop a product with high impact on the digitization and management of urban forests and on climate change adaptation in cities
• Cutting-edge tools and technologies to work with, e.g., LiDAR remote sensing
• Possibility to work and learn in an international, open-minded team of passionate (green-)tech experts.

Please note when applying that we can only offer this position to US Citizens or Permanent Residents.
