C++ Software Development Engineer II - Graph Algorithms

Overview

Do you ever want to navigate the best way to get to a taco stand; know how many taco stands are within 10 minutes of your current location; or wonder how you can optimize traveling to all of them to savor the ultimate taco? If you love tacos and love graph algorithms and optimization, we’ve got the ideal job for you!

Join the ArcGIS Network Analyst team and build state-of-the-art routing algorithms used by companies all over the world to optimize their delivery fleet, provide driving directions, identify locations to site stores based on travel patterns, and much more. Our work touches millions of users and has a far-reaching impact.

You will work on a team focused on designing and implementing high-performance graph algorithms exposed in mobile, desktop, server, and cloud-based APIs and solutions within ArcGIS. This is a challenging and gratifying opportunity to apply your coding skills and passion for excellence to craft solutions for real-world transportation problems.
