  • Data Integration and Analysis: Integrate high-resolution satellite data, in situ measurements, and geospatial data layers from open-source repositories and other sources (including bathymetry, ocean circulation, rugosity, habitat maps, fishing pressure, sea surface temperature, and species occurrence data) to develop a comprehensive understanding of ecosystem impacts.
  • Development of Targeted Models: Where gaps exist, design and develop new predictive models that enhance our understanding of specific phenomena (e.g., species distribution under climate impacts, eDNA dispersal models).
  • Collaborate Across Disciplines: Work closely with our marine biologist and data scientist, and GIS experts to integrate ecological insights into broader environmental models, ensuring outcomes are relevant and actionable.
  • Project Leadership: Lead the technical aspects of collaborative projects with industry partners, ensuring alignment with Ocean OS’s objectives and delivering high-quality outputs for clients.

  • Proven experience in oceanographic modelling, ecological modelling, or marine data analytics, with a strong portfolio of relevant projects.
  • Proficiency in programming languages such as Python, R, or MATLAB, with a focus on data analysis and modelling.
  • Experience with machine learning techniques, particularly in predictive modelling, geospatial analysis, and time-series analysis.
  • Proficiency in working spatial data in PostgreSQL with PostGIS.
  • Understanding of marine ecosystems, including species distribution, ocean currents, and ecosystem resilience dynamics.
  • Experience working with cloud computing platforms (e.g., AWS, Google Earth Engine) for processing large geospatial datasets, unit testing, and version control (git, GitHub)
  • Familiarity with satellite data processing and integration of diverse data sources (e.g., environmental, ecological, and remote sensing data) is a plus
  • Experience with eDNA data integration is a plus.
  • Excellent communication skills with the ability to translate complex technical information into actionable insights.


What We Offer:


  • Impactful Work: Join a purpose-driven team dedicated to supporting sustainable marine practices and biodiversity protection.
  • Collaborative Environment: Work alongside a diverse team of experts in marine biology, data science, and environmental technology.
  • Career Growth: Opportunities to lead high-profile projects and make a tangible impact in the field of marine conservation and sustainability.
  • Flexible Work Options: Remote working flexibility, with occasional travel for project collaboration and site visits.
  • Competitive Compensation Package: Attractive salary and benefits tailored to experience and qualifications.
