3d Mapping Engineer

Description:

Due to continued growth, we’re seeking a skilled 3D Mapping Engineer to join an established organisation delivering advanced spatial and mapping solutions. The team work across large-scale environments, using LiDAR and SLAM technologies to build accurate, real-world models for a range of applications.

THE BENEFITS

• Hybrid and flexible working
• Exposure to large-scale, real-world mapping projects
• Ongoing training and development
• Collaborative engineering environment
• Clear progression opportunities

THE 3D MAPPING ENGINEER ROLE:

You will play a key role in developing and deploying LiDAR-based mapping solutions across large and complex environments. This will involve working across the full pipeline, from data capture through to SLAM-based localisation and point cloud processing.

You’ll work with high-volume spatial datasets, helping to transform raw LiDAR data into accurate and usable 3D representations.

3D MAPPING ENGINEER ESSENTIAL SKILLS

• Strong experience with LiDAR and SLAM frameworks (e.g. LOAM, Cartographer, LIO-SAM)
• Experience working on large-scale mapping projects (outdoor, infrastructure, or industrial environments)
• Solid understanding of point cloud processing (PCL, Open3D, PDAL)
• Experience with sensor fusion (LiDAR + GPS/IMU)
• Proficiency in Python and/or C++
• Understanding of geospatial systems and coordinate frameworks

DESIRABLE SKILLS

• Experience with ROS2
• Experience working with mobile mapping systems or surveying workflows
