Boundless, a growing software firm with 100 employees in five offices, is shifting its headquarters to downtown St. Louis from its base in New York City.

Boundless currently has 25 employees in 5,000 square feet of office space at the T-Rex co-working and tech incubator building on Washington Avenue in St. Louis.

The company is hiring and could grow to 40 local employees within the next year, said CEO Andy Dearing, who has lived in St. Louis since beginning his undergraduate studies at St. Louis University in 1999. Dearing, who received his MBA from Maryville University, was named CEO of Boundless in late 2015.

In addition to New York, Boundless’ other offices are in Washington, D.C.; New Orleans; and Victoria, British Columbia. Companywide, Dearing projects Boundless’ workforce will grow to 150 within two years.

Boundless is a provider of commercially supported open geographic information systems (GIS), and the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency, which is building its new western headquarters campus in north St. Louis, is a client.
