We put powerful aerial imagery, AI-driven analytics, and geospatial tools into the hands of the people who plan, build, insure, and govern the places we all live and work.

We move fast, we care about craft, and we're proud of what we're building. If you're energized by turning hard problems into real-world impact, we'd love to meet you. About the Role Engagement Type - Full time, fully remote consultant; ~6 - 24 month engagement Nearmap's Roof & Exterior Measurements (REM) program delivers aerial property measurement outputs - roof geometry, wall dimensions, window/door counts and measurement, and material classification - to insurance carriers, restoration contractors, and estimating platforms. As we scale toward broader carrier and commercial deployment, we are seeking a seasoned industry practitioner to serve as a full-time Subject Matter Expert (SME) Consultant embedded within the REM product team. This role is a critical bridge between deep industry knowledge and product execution. The SME Consultant will inform us how we define measurement standards, evaluate output quality, shape process flows, and position our capabilities relative to the market. You will work directly with the VP of Product and product team as well as cross-functional leads spanning Engineering, Operations, and Go-to-Market. The REM program is in active commercial scale-up, with a rapidly growing pipeline of major carrier and platform partnerships. This role will be embedded within a dedicated REM pod structure alongside Product Managers, Engineering, QA, and an Operations Lead — focused on delivering high-quality, carrier-grade measurement outputs at scale.

The SME Consultant will have direct and ongoing access to the VP of Product, program leadership, and carrier stakeholders. This is a high-impact role with significant influence over product direction, quality standards, and market positioning at a critical stage of program growth. What You'll Do Product & Measurement Standards: - Serve as the internal authority on industry-standard roof and exterior measurement definitions and best practices, including pitch, facet area, ridge/hip/valley/eave lengths, wall heights, window/door placement and counts. - Define and document measurement acceptance criteria aligned to carrier and contractor use cases for Verisk and Cotality estimating solutions - what constitutes a "good" REM output vs. a defect. - Partner with Engineering and QA to translate measurement standards into test cases, QC/QA practices that can inform operations standards and training materials. - Provide expert review of photogrammetric and AI model outputs for accuracy, edge-case handling (complex rooflines, dormers, mansards, low-slope, multi-story), and completeness. - Advise on aerial, oblique, and supplemental imagery use in measurement workflows - including source imagery strengths/limitations relative to field verification standards. Insurance & Estimating Platform Expertise - Guide REM output design and formatting for seamless delivery into Verisk Xactimate (ESX) and Cotality/Symbility workflows – roof block usage and conversion, field mapping, unit conventions, and estimating line-item alignment. - Advise on carrier intake processes, adjuster workflows, claim file structures, and the downstream impact of measurement data on estimate accuracy and settlement speed. - Identify gaps between current REM outputs and what carriers/adjusters need in practice; translate those gaps into prioritized product requirements in partnership with functionality and operational product manager.
