Envitia

What is Envitia?

Envitia is a UK data and geospatial software-and-services company focused on the defence, government, and national-security sectors. Its work is about helping organizations get value out of difficult, complex, and often geospatial data: discovering and accessing data across systems, modeling and improving its quality, and applying AI/ML, analytics, and visualization so decision-makers can actually use it. Alongside consulting and delivery (digital and data strategy, cloud architecture, data engineering, and geospatial services), Envitia has long-standing software, most notably MapLink Pro, a geospatial mapping and visualization SDK used to build mapping into other applications. Envitia was founded in 1989 and is headquartered in Horsham, West Sussex, in the UK, and is a privately held company of roughly 106 people led by CEO Dominic Eade. Because so much of its work is for UK defence, government, and national-security customers, it sits in the same world as other cleared UK government suppliers: the customers, data, and much of the delivery are UK-based, and many roles carry security requirements.

Mission & values

Help defence, government, and national-security organizations make better decisions by turning complex and geospatial data into something they can discover, trust, and act on.

Qualifications

Envitia hires across software engineering (full-stack, backend, geospatial and mapping, cloud, data engineering), data science and AI/ML, data architecture and data-quality specialists, geospatial analysts and consultants, plus delivery and project management, digital/data strategy consulting, and corporate functions. Application flow lives at envitia.com (careers). Two things shape hiring heavily because of its defence and government focus. First, security: many roles require UK nationality and an existing or obtainable UK security clearance (for example SC or DV), and holding clearance materially widens your options. Second, location and work authorization: roles are UK-based and require UK work authorization; some are remote or hybrid within the UK, but cleared work is often tied to specific sites or secure environments and cannot be fully remote. Relevant experience with geospatial data (GIS, mapping, defence data standards), data engineering, or AI/ML on messy real-world data is valued. Check each posting for its clearance and location requirements.
