Interactive Event Map Developer

We are hiring a developer to build a web-based interactive map for the Highlands Horse Show, a two-week equestrian event held at Keane Stud in Amenia, NY (Sept 30 – Oct 4 and Oct 7 – Oct 11, 2026). The map will help guests, exhibitors, sponsors, and vendors navigate the venue on mobile and desktop. The deliverable is one master interactive map plus five focused sub-maps that share the same base layer, styling, and codebase. The project involves creating a responsive, mobile-first interactive map with various views, including an overall site map, stables map, vendor area map, legacy club map, traffic map, and parking map.
