Job Description

OUR VISION

In 2024, EarthDaily Analytics will launch The EarthDaily Constellation, the world\xe2\x80\x99s most powerful global change detection and analysis system. The EarthDaily Constellation consist of 9+1 Earth Observation satellites, imaging the entire land surface of the earth every day in multiple visible, SWIR and thermal bands. The satellite imagery will be processed by EarthDaily for delivery to customers.

OUR TEAM

We\xe2\x80\x99re growing a multidisciplinary team of engineers to build out our Mission Operations for the launch the EarthDaily Constellation. Our diversity is core to our success in building the most innovative technologies on (and off!) the planet. Our team of experts have developed the world\xe2\x80\x99s first colour HD video from space, developed the processing pipelines for some of the most well-known commercial satellites, and have built the world\xe2\x80\x99s first automated Satellite Processing service which is being applied by partner satellites and our upcoming constellation.

At EarthDaily Analytics we work as a highly collaborative team in an agile based iterative environment and are leading the next revolution in satellite-based Earth Observation remote sensing through problem solving, growth and ownership.
