Responsibilities

• Create, clean, and quality check spatial data from grower submissions, partner files, and public sources, documenting what changed and why
• Assemble map packages, tabular summaries, and visualizations for internal teams, growers, and verifiers
• Support partner and field teams using AgriCapture data collection applications, diagnosing submission errors and documenting how each was resolved
• Track recurring data quality patterns across submissions and turn them into specific enhancement requests for field applications and forms
• Adapt collection templates and quality control checks to local cropping systems and project requirements across South and Southeast Asia
• Collaborate cross-functionally with program, product, and science teams to turn spatial questions into repeatable workflows
• Provide support with technical writing, documentation, and editing as required
