Jarrett Keifer is a Senior Geospatial Software Engineer with 11 years of experience building production GIS and networked systems, currently driving development of Cirrus, an open-source STAC-based processing pipeline at Element 84. He blends spatial analysis, image processing, and network programming skills, routinely shipping solutions from data ingestion through UX using pragmatic tools like Python, Bash, GDAL, and PostGIS. His background includes architecting scalable SD-WAN systems and multi-gigabit network upgrades, giving him uncommon depth at the intersection of networking and geospatial platforms. A former adjunct instructor and lead developer for water-forecasting research, he pairs strong documentation and teaching instincts with hands-on engineering. Based in Oregon, he is a multidisciplinary maker—climber, musician, and builder—who brings a jack-of-all-trades curiosity to deep technical problems.
