• Process and integrate diverse datasets from eDNA, passive acoustic monitoring, and environmental sensors, ensuring data quality, consistency, and compatibility.
• Develop and implement data analysis pipelines using statistical methods, including machine learning techniques, to identify patterns, trends, and relationships in the monitoring data.
• Interpret analysis results in the context of marine ecology, offshore wind impacts, and relevant environmental regulations and policies.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams, including ecologists, marine biologists, and survey specialists, to refine monitoring strategies and address stakeholder needs.
• Prepare technical reports, data visualisations, and presentations to communicate findings and recommendations to diverse audiences.
• Maintain and update data management systems, ensuring data security, access control, and version control.
• Stay up-to-date with advancements in marine environmental data science, statistical methods, and relevant technologies, and propose innovative solutions to enhance the monitoring system.
Requirements:
• Master's degree or PhD in Environmental Science, Marine Biology, Oceanography, Ecology, Data Science, or a related field.
• Strong background in statistical analysis, data visualisation, and programming (e.g., R, Python, SQL).
• Experience working with large, complex datasets, preferably in the context of ecology, marine environments or renewable energy.
• Knowledge of marine ecology, biodiversity assessment methods, and environmental impact assessment processes.
• Familiarity with either eDNA, passive acoustic monitoring, or another emerging marine monitoring technology.
• Excellent problem-solving, critical thinking, and communication skills.
• Ability to work independently and collaboratively in a fast-paced, multidisciplinary team environment.
• Proficiency in data management, quality assurance, and documentation practices.
• Passion for applying data science to support sustainable marine resource management and conservation.
Preferred Qualifications:
• Experience in applying machine learning and artificial intelligence techniques to ecological data analysis, such as species distribution modelling, biodiversity assessment, and ecosystem health indicators.
• Experience with spatial analysis, GIS, and remote sensing techniques.
• Familiarity with offshore wind energy development and associated environmental regulations.
• Track record of publishing scientific papers or presenting at conferences in relevant fields.
• Experience working with stakeholders from industry, government, and academia.
We offer a competitive salary combined with an attractive equity package, giving you the opportunity to grow with the company and share in its success. As an early-stage startup, we provide a dynamic and collaborative work environment. You'll have the chance to work on cutting-edge projects at the intersection of marine conservation, renewable energy, and artificial intelligence, while developing your skills and expertise in a supportive and innovative team.
We value work-life balance and offer flexible working arrangements to support your well-being.
