GHGSat is mapping and tracking the world's greenhouse gas (GHG) emitters. To accomplish this goal, GHGSat operates its own satellite and aircraft sensors to collect emissions data and uses these with third-party data to inform an analytics pipeline that:

1. Detects and quantifies GHG emissions
2. Identifies and classifies potential GHG emitters
3. Generates valuable insights for our customers

The successful candidate will extract, analyse, and interpret large amounts of structured and unstructured data from a range of proprietary and public sources, using modern data science techniques to develop emissions intelligence for GHGSat's analytics products. Opportunities to contribute to the publication of scientific papers are possible.
