It is used by people with highly specialised knowledge in the infrastructure industry such as Civil/Design/GIS Engineers, Environmental Consultants and Project Managers to significantly reduce the time in which linear infrastructure is planned and developed.
We’re looking to increase the number of users, amount of data and reliability by 10x this year and make Optioneer all round bigger, stronger and faster. You’ll work with our team to help create a system that is going to enable us to scale seamlessly into the future as we become the project development platform of choice for the infrastructure industry.
