Geospatial Jobs #29: Dec 13, 2022
Welcome to the 29th issue of Geospatial Jobs, a career newsletter focusing on data science and geosciences (🌧climatetech, 🌽agtech, 🌊risk modeling, ⚡️energy, 🛰remote sensing, ♻️sustainability, and more). To check out previous issues, click here.
🙏 Shout out and special thanks to the two volunteers who helped with preparing this issue: Chloe Whicker and Hamed Sharif.
🎄 This is our last issue in 2022. The job market generally slows down in December, so my suggestions for end of year career growth is similar to what I shared last year in issue #19: practice, learn, and rest. I wish everyone a wonderful holiday and a great year ahead. While it’s holiday season in many places, Iranians are experiencing the third month of continuous protest against the Islamic regime, and the government’s response has been nothing but utmost cruelty. As much as I intend to stay focused on geospatial jobs here, I feel obligated to leverage this platform and raise awareness about the ongoing brutality of Iranian government. Wishing a better year in 2023 ✌️☮️

🕵️💵 Companies to Follow (recent fundings):
Unfortunately, not much to see here for now. The economy is not great (to say the least) and cash is king again. So, everyone seems to be tightening their belts. Hopefully more exciting fundraising news will come up in January.
