About the Role
Join a mission-driven, AI-powered climate tech company using advanced satellite imagery to help utilities prevent wildfires and power outages by identifying vegetation risks before they become critical. As a Senior Geospatial Machine Learning Engineer on the Vegetation Modeling team, you'll develop and improve ML solutions that analyze geospatial data and satellite imagery at scale — making a direct impact on grid resilience and climate action. The team spans the Americas and Europe, and this role is fully remote.
What You'll Do
-
Develop new vegetation intelligence products using geospatial Python libraries, machine learning, and deep learning techniques.
-
Maintain and improve existing products through data exploration, model optimization, and debugging using tools such as QGIS, Dagster, Sentry, and Grafana.
-
Lead projects end-to-end — from planning and execution through delivery — and communicate the value of your work to cross-functional stakeholders across the organization.
-
Build measurement frameworks and tooling to evaluate model performance and guide data-driven decisions about where to focus impact.
-
Collaborate with upstream data ingestion teams and downstream product delivery teams to shape platform architecture and pipelines.
What We're Looking For
Required (Dealbreakers):
-
5+ years of experience as a Machine Learning Engineer or Data Scientist building and deploying production ML/deep learning models.
-
Demonstrated experience building computer vision or deep learning models on satellite or aerial imagery.
-
Proficiency with geospatial Python libraries (e.g.,
rasterio,geopandas,shapely,GDAL) and geospatial data formats.
Required Skills:
-
Experience with Python-based ML/deep learning frameworks (e.g., TensorFlow, PyTorch, scikit-learn).
-
Experience with data pipeline orchestration tools (e.g., Dagster, Airflow, dbt) or equivalent workflow management systems.
-
Experience with QGIS or equivalent geospatial visualization and analysis software.
-
Experience with model monitoring, evaluation metrics, and performance measurement in production environments.
Nice to Have:
-
Experience working with multi-spectral or hyperspectral satellite imagery data.
-
Background in vegetation analysis, forestry, agriculture, or environmental monitoring applications.
-
Familiarity with monitoring and observability tools (e.g., Grafana, Sentry, Prometheus).
-
Experience leading cross-functional projects or initiatives from planning through delivery.
-
Passion for climate action and applying technology to complex, real-world environmental problems.
Compensation & Benefits
Compensation details were not provided for this role. A competitive package commensurate with experience is expected for a senior-level position at a well-funded climate tech company.
