## About the Role

non-technical stakeholders, including customers. Collaborate closely with the wider Theia data science and engineering teams on shared infrastructure, data pipelines, and tooling. What We're Looking For What We're Looking For Strong geospatial data science background, with demonstrated experience working with spatial data, coordinate systems, and geospatial analysis techniques. Experience working with earth observation data, e.g. electro-optical or synthetic aperture radar (SAR). Some computer vision experience (e.g., object detection/classification applied to imagery). Strong Python skills and practical experience with the machine learning lifecycle: predictive modeling, classification, evaluation, and iteration. Comfortable working independently, thinking through ambiguous problems, and explaining your reasoning and approach to others. Nice to Have Experience working with AIS (vessel-tracking) data - desirable, but not a deal-breaker if the rest of your background is strong. Familiarity
with GCP (BigQuery, Vertex AI) or equivalent cloud data platforms. Experience with geospatial tooling and libraries (e.g., QGIS, GDAL, GeoPandas). Experience with PyTorch, scikit-learn, or similar ML frameworks. Background in maritime, defense, intelligence, or energy domains. #J-18808-Ljbffr
