About Net-Zero Geosystems

Net-Zero Geosystems is a pioneering start-up dedicated to the development of cutting-edge geoscientific simulation tools and services for CO2 storage, geothermal energy, radioactive waste disposal, hydrogen storage, and the permanent abandonment of oil & gas wells.

Our mission is to provide robust, evidence-based solutions to lower the operational risks of subsurface projects, ensuring a sustained long-term containment of greenhouse gases and harmful fluids.

Job Description

We are seeking a highly skilled Lead Computational Geoscientist to drive the delivery and technical strategy of our R&D and applied projects, aligning them with our business goals.

The successful candidate will lead a team of engineers, deliver innovative software, undertake scientific research, and apply our technology for our clients' operations.

The key responsibilities of this role include:

  • Providing technical strategy for our R&D and applied projects in line with business objectives.
  • Leading the delivery of work packages (for R&D and applied projects), writing deliverable descriptions, monitoring progress, and ensuring deadlines are met.
  • Communicating with other team members involved and ensuring necessary resources are available.
  • Leading the development of new software, physics models, theory documents, experimental, and applied studies.
  • Regularly presenting research outcomes, project milestones, and development progress to the team, external stakeholders, and to the industrial and scientific community.

This position demands a balance of technical expertise, project management skills, and leadership abilities to drive cutting-edge R&D and client-oriented delivery.

Requirements

The ideal candidate is an excellent team player with extensive experience in developing numerical methods and physics solvers (FEM, FDM, FVM...), advanced Python/C++ skills, strong mathematics skills, knowledge of solid & fluid mechanics theory, and a background in Geosciences.

The successful candidate will also possess:

  • Scientific rigour and attention to detail.
  • Creative thinking.
  • Proficiency in Python/C++, Paraview, Linux, LaTeX, and Git.
  • Experience in deriving partial differential equations and developing implicit solvers (for thermo-hydro-mechanical and chemical coupled physics).
  • A background in geoscience, particularly petroleum engineering.
What We Offer

We offer a competitive package, including:

  • Options shares in Net-Zero Geosystems.
  • Flexible working hours.
  • Remote working.
  • 25 days holiday (excluding bank holidays).

This is a remote position for an individual based in the UK at a commutable distance from London to facilitate in-person interactions.

We strongly encourage women and individuals from minority backgrounds and underrepresented communities to apply for this job opportunity.
