About Terrastack

Terrastack is a high-tech geospatial startup incubated in SINE, founded by an IIT Bombay CS alumnus and professor. We are building the rural land stack for India, producing plot and village-level intelligence across vectors such as land record quality, agri productivity, climate risk, infra support, and land valuation. Our product's live at www.terrastack.ai. Our longstanding collaborations with Google Deepmind and the Government of Maharashtra are key to our success.

We're looking for back-end engineers familiar with database systems - since our stack is built on PostgreSQL-PostGIS - and fluent in Python. You'll be working on creating and optimizing data pipelines, refining geospatial models, and producing client case studies on topics such as branch strategy and underwriting analytics.

Looking for individuals with 0-3 YOE, with experience in the technologies mentioned. We're based out of IIT Bombay, Powai - in-office work is expected for 5 days a week. Pay ranges from 60k/month to 100k/month, based on qualifications.

Responsibilities

• Develop and maintain Python-ic pipelines to process satellite imagery, land records, weather streams and other datasets into usable geospatial formats.
• Implement and tune algorithms for ownership-possession alignment, climate risk analysis, valuation models, and other spatial analytics.
• Build modules to generate decision support insights - such as branch catchment analysis, land record fit heatmaps, or underwriting intelligence - for lending and governance.
• Work with PostgreSQL + PostGIS databases to efficiently store, query, and index large-scale geospatial datasets related to agro-economic features.

Qualifications

• 0-3 YOE in related technology stacks
• Fluency in Python
• Experience with database systems, preferably PostgreSQL
• Working knowledge of Git, Linux CLI tools, etc
• Ability to work full-time from our IIT Bombay, Powai office
