Life with Us

Maxar Intelligence is a provider of secure, precise, geospatial intelligence. We deliver disruptive value to government and commercial customers to help them monitor, understand, and navigate our changing planet. Our unique approach combines decades of deep mission understanding and a proven commercial and defense foundation to deploy solutions and deliver insights with unrivaled speed, scale, and cost effectiveness.

You will be part of the Platform Ordering team responsible for developing, deploying, and maintaining APIs for the Maxar Geospatial Platform.

You will introduce automation and evangelize new tools and processes within a collaborative team environment.

Responsibilities
