Computational Geophysicist

Develop bespoke geophysics solutions
- Be part of a Space and Mineral exploration company
- Join a diverse & collaborative team

**The Company**

Fleet Space Technologies is an innovative space technology company that builds solutions for companies that wish to monitor and manage assets in remote areas. Our satellite constellation in combination with state-of-the-art ground-based technologies allows customers to securely transfer data from anywhere in the world.

Our most recent technological development provides a ground-breaking solution to our customers in mining and exploration. The solution removes some of the negative impact on the environment that traditional drill hole methodology has by supplementing it with our sensor based ground solution backed up by our satellite network providing customers with near real-time data modelling of subsurface deposits.

As a business, we are ambitious, innovative, and collaborative and we put our customers first in everything that we do. We love celebrating our successes, and we have had a lot to celebrate to date. We are a diverse group of professionals who have come together for one purpose - to build spacecraft for explorers of new worlds.

**The Role**

As part of our company’s future expansion plans, we are seeking for a high performing and innovative Computational Geophysicist to design, develop, and enhance our geophysics algorithms into Fleet's bespoke solution.

You will create solutions that strive to empower and enable our customers to make decisions intuitively and easily, with as little intervention from the geophysics team as possible.

**Main Responsibilities**
- Design, develop and improve algorithms used to generate Ambient Noise Tomography models.
- Collaborate with the geophysics team to turn theoretical practices into production-ready codes.
- Write algorithms that interfaces well with other cloud-based systems.
- Work with software engineers to define and implement interfaces between cloud-based systems and data science code.
- Develop, automate and optimise science-based processes to the maximum extent possible.
- Elicit, analyse and define detailed business requirements.
- Perform and conduct unit testing.
- Create and maintain product documentation and procedures.

**Key Skills and Experience**
- At least 5 years of experience on seismological signal processing
- Solid experience in at least one of Python / C / C++ or Go
- Experience in writing unit tests is an advantage.
- Strong problem-solving skills, with the ability to identify and resolve technical issues.
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to communicate complex algorithms to those without data science backgrounds.
- Understanding of Ambient Noise Tomography modeling techniques would be an advantage.
- Ability to work in an agile and fast-paced environment.
