- Integrate Esri (ArcGIS Enterprise, ArcGIS Online, ArcGIS Pro) with proprietary mining software.
- Build pipelines that combine drone captured imagery with deep-ground geological and geophysical data (boreholes, seismic, drone, LiDAR).
- Design Azure cloud architecture for Esri workloads.
- Develop cost monitoring, forecasting, and optimization mechanisms for ArcGIS cloud usage (credits, compute, storage, tile / feature services).
- Collaborate with geologists, data engineers, and product teams to translate domain requirements into GIS solutions.
