We are looking for an enthusiastic Geospatial Data Scientist (d/f/m) who has borderless thinking and gets their thrills from creating scalable spatial workflows. Becoming part of our our Data Solutions team means joining on a journey of challenging work at the intersection of data and social impact. You'll thrive by finding innovative solutions, think and experiment in new ways to uncover fascinating insights within our development-centered projects - especially around energy - engaging directly with global customers, and making a meaningful real-life impact.

How your day-to-day will look like:

Technical & Geospatial

• You apply VIDA’s spatial analysis tools and prepare our software for real-life projects - these can range from energy access planning to agriculture or climate risk assessment.
• You improve, automate, and extend our workflows with Python and SQL scripting.
• You explore, pre-process and integrate new datasets and map layers into the VIDA software.
• You explore and implement new spatial data analysis methods, for example by using Machine Learning methods and sector-specific modelling frameworks.

Documentation, Reporting & Communication

• You ensure clear documentation, reporting, and communication across all project phases.
• You ensure project outputs (VIDA software products and reports) meet technical quality standards and are accessible to end-users.
• You interact with our international project partners and clients, and prepare/present your work in reports and presentations, both in English and French.
• You facilitate workshops, trainings, and meetings to ensure alignment and adoption of project outcomes, both in English and French.
