Join the Earthmover team as a Software Engineer and help us build the world’s best cloud platform for scientific data teams.
DESCRIPTION
Preamble
Earthmover is building a product that solves the biggest storage and compute challenges of our time for users in the deep sciences - think climate, earth observations, biotech, machine learning, and AI.
Our first product, Arraylake, is a data lake platform for multi-dimensional scientific array data. It enables users to manage and process array data in open standard cloud-native formats, with features like versioning, cataloging, collaboration and access control on top. We’re starting to build powerful products and experiences on top of this foundation to advance the field of scientific computing and accelerate progress in many domains. Some specific problems we’re thinking about:
- Collaboration between scientists, teams and organizations. Getting discoverability, sharing, and access controls right.
- Transparent, high performance array access, along any dimension.
- Groundbreaking open access public datasets to the entire scientific community.
- Generating insights for organizations about how they utilize datasets on our platform.
- Navigation, exploration, and visualization of nuanced hierarchical scientific data structures.
