About the role

  • Deep Learning Specialist developing AI-driven solutions for nature-based assets at climate-tech startup. Collaborating across teams to design and implement ML/DL models for risk and trading signals.

Responsibilities

  • Design, implement, and evaluate ML/DL models for processing alternative data sources (satellites and weather data) for risk and trading signals.
  • Forecasting environmental or risk-related signals (e.g. increasing weather and climate volatility, agricultural stress indicators).
  • Use remote sensing datasets (e.g. Sentinel-1, Sentinel-2, GEDI, other optical and radar missions) and climate data to build vegetation stress signals, landcover classifications and land-surface conditions.
  • Develop time-series and forecasting models to detect and anticipate environmental changes and their impacts on global markets.
  • Collaborate closely with the wider AI, Science, Product, and Engineering teams to translate business questions into robust modelling problems.
  • Turn research prototypes into scalable, reliable AI pipelines that deliver actionable information.
  • Help shape modelling standards, documentation, and reproducibility within the AI team (e.g. experiment design, evaluation protocols, uncertainty treatment).
  • Communicate methods, assumptions, and results clearly to technical and non-technical stakeholders, including limitations and uncertainty.

Requirements

  • Strong background in Machine Learning, Deep Learning, and Applied Statistics.
  • Experience with time-series modelling. Familiarity with building and backtesting.
  • Proficiency with the Python scientific stack: scikit-learn, PyTorch, scipy etc.
  • Familiarity with version-controlled, reproducible workflows (AWS/cloud infrastructure, Git, Weights&Biases/experiment tracking).
  • Experience with risk modelling, financial time series and portfolio optimisation techniques.
  • Experience working with weather and climate data, particularly CMIP archives and weather forecast data.
  • Experience with geospatial techniques (rasterio, xarray, geopandas, GDAL) and remote sensing data (optical, radar, LiDAR) is beneficial.
  • Familiarity with MLOps practices (containerisation, CI/CD, model monitoring) is a plus.
  • Prior experience in a startup or fast-moving product team.

Benefits

  • Access competitive pay, equity and meaningful benefits
