Forward-Deployed Engineer, Earth Observation
The Compression Company
USD 180k-240k / year + Equity

You will lead deployments of our compression system into real EO workflows. This role spans both sides of the product: making encoding work reliably on constrained hardware (including onboard satellite-class systems), and validating that compressed data remains useful for downstream processing and ML pipelines. You'll work directly with customers and partners, translate operational realities into platform requirements, and help turn early deployments into a repeatable motion. We intend to hire two people into this role profile, with complementary strengths across edge deployment and EO analytics.
