Who we are and what we do

Mappedin powers search and discovery indoors. Our software platform provides industry leading tools for property owners and operators to manage their dynamic indoor information and build digital wayfinding experiences into their customer-facing applications.

Founded in 2011, Mappedin is headquartered in Waterloo, Canada. We work with clients in all industries around the world to help manage over 600M square feet of indoor space. In the last year, the Mappedin platform served over 140 million directions to people navigating the indoors.

Our Mapping team is embedded within our Customer Success team and we work closely together to deliver the best wayfinding experience.

Who you are and what you’ll do

You are passionate about indoor navigation, design, and best-in-class maps used by millions of people. You enjoy exciting work and have great design sense. You are meticulous in your work with high attention to detail.

As part of the Mapping Team and reporting to the Map Design Lead, you will provide support to the Project Management and Customer Support teams to deliver maps pre- and post-implementation work:

Work with blueprints and architectural plans to understand and digitize various types of indoor venues

Use your exceptional design skills to create a good-looking map that is easy to understand and to navigate

Input the client’s location data when required

Assist with ongoing map updates

QA your work and your peer’s work

Create IMDF export files (Apple format)

You are highly interested in learning about or already have experience in:

CAD-editing software (AutoCAD)

Adobe Illustrator

Architecture or Urban Planning

What are some challenges?

We have tight deadlines. You’ll need to be a sponge when it comes to absorbing information. Since this is what we deliver to customers, we cannot afford to be late or make errors.

Behind the scenes

We use our own Mappedin CMS to keep maps updated and will use AutoCAD and Illustrator during implementation stages.

There’s a lot of trust here at Mappedin. We are a REMOTE company. If you’re local, there will probably be a few days a week when you can expect other people to be in the office, but this role could also be fully remote. We work flexible hours, and work to provide the hardware or office equipment you require to unleash your potential. We will do what it takes to get things done if we said we would do it. We stay curious, challenge opinions, take risks, and learn from mistakes. We’re competitive and we like to win together. We want you to join us.
