About The Position

We’re looking for a hands-on operator to run a daily workflow that turns state oil & gas well-permit data into actionable satellite-image insights for our customers. You’ll help manage processes that ingest state data, fetch imagery for those locations, perform QC to categorize pad activity, correct bounding-box issues, publish updates to customers, and troubleshoot any issues that may come up along the way.

Requirements

• 1–3 years in data operations or similar production workflows.
• Experience command-line interfaces (you'll run already created Python scripts, not do anything actually programming-related)
• Familiarity with satellite imagery concepts.
• Experience doing QC with careful attention to detail.
• Experience reading logs to diagnose and troubleshoot failures.
• Strong written communication and organized handoffs; reliable daily availability.
• Able to follow documentation; proactive about edge cases and ambiguity.

Responsibilities

• Run and monitor the daily pipeline that ingests state O&G well-permit data.
• Fetch satellite imagery for permitted locations.
• Perform visual QC and categorize activity on well pads (e.g., drilling, fracking, inactive).
• Fix/adjust bounding boxes that are misaligned or overlapping.
• Troubleshoot errors and escalate issues where necessary.
• Communicate status and blockers across teams; hand-off cleanly across days.
