Software Development Engineer
Are you interesting in doing image processing, using photogrammetry
and new research techniques to help build high-quality models of the world?
In the Virtual Earth team you can do exactly that we are currently
working on creating detailed street-level photo-textures for the building
models in Virtual Earth (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_Earth) and
are building more realistic and detailed 3D building models based on this
imagery. The larger team is also responsible for aerial mapping, automating
building creation from aerial imagery and managing the global DEM. Our
site owns the algorithms and data used to build the 3D Virtual Earth models.
We are located in the Boulder, CO office which has about 120 people right
under the flatirons of the Rocky Mountains. We are only a mile from the
University of Colorado (http://www.colorado.edu/) and their home page
will give you an idea of the phenomenal environment around the office.

The VirtualEarth 3Di team, located in beautiful Boulder, CO, is a recent
acquisition and brings with it a vast array of imaging and graphics technologies.
The 3Di team will play a key part in the next several Virtual Earth releases
by building software that will produce all of the imagery and 3D data
consumed by the VirtualEarth products - on both the 2D web site and the
upcoming 3D products. See out product at < http://local.live.com/>
dont miss the 3D features!
We are looking for a developer to help build the imagery processing infrastructure
- from inception to production. You must have solid design and coding
skills, and desire to build high-end scalable, performant and extensible
systems. We are building a very large repository of raw aerial and satellite

The Microsoft Virtual Earth application has become exceedingly popular
for exploring massive 2D and 3D areas around the world. The explosive
growth in photorealistic 3D modeling has created a whole new generation
of users that continues to grow exponentially. In the past, photogrammetry
tended to be a very labor-intensive operation, but as we research and
implement new breakthroughs, we are on track to making our imagery pipeline
the most scalable and robust imagery production facility in the world.
So, if you are interested in pursuing a career that includes the testing
of automatic feature extraction, multiview geometry, and dynamic texture
mapping to produce lightweight photorealistic 3D models of buildings,
come join us.
Working here in beautiful Boulder, Colorado, at the foothills of the
Rocky Mountains, adds yet another fantastic relocation benefit when you
join the Virtual Earth 3Di team. Virtual Earth is constantly researching
new ways to use satellite, aerial, and 3-D imagery for improving internet
user's search experience. The VE3Di Test Team is looking for several talented
SDETs to take on the challenges of testing our Virtual Earth platform
and imagery pipeline as well as contributing new ideas that will improve
the way we use maps online today. It's more than just a role as a tester.
You will be involved in every phase - from researching new HW, assisting
in designing new features, to writing C# automation.
Your role on our test team would, at a minimum, consist of the following:
· Define the correct test automation architecture to use in different
test environments.
· Provide valuable input in the design phase as a customer of the
imagery framework.
· Diagnose, debug, and troubleshoot issues at the system level
and at the coding level.

the ability to see the big picture as well as understand the fine details
of C#. You must be a top performing test engineer who enjoys driving for
quality. If you want to own large pieces of the puzzle, are self-directed
and results-driven, we'd love to have you on our team. You will drive
and own feature testing from spec to release and beyond. Test experience
in Image Processing and Photogrammetry is a strong plus.
Qualifications include a minimum of 4 years experience in test development.
