TL;DRWorld-changing climate tech startup with an important mission is seeking an
Atmospheric Data Scientist
to work on air quality application efforts. In this role, you will join our Data Science team, working to develop innovative data abstractions for our hyperlocal urban air pollution models. The role will work on the creation of scalable environmental data products that serve a diverse set of stakeholders, from regulatory bodies and city governments to frontline EJ communities. This is a unique opportunity to impact public health and climate change mitigation through advanced data science.About AclimaAclima is pioneering an entirely new way to monitor and respond to air pollution in communities, and track the effectiveness of focused mitigation efforts. We leverage cutting-edge sensor technology mounted on fleets of mapping vehicles to measure air pollution, greenhouse gases, methane, and air toxics across entire cities, states, and regions at block-level resolution. Our professional analytics software, Aclima Pro, translates billions of scientific measurements into insights at the source level, providing
environmental intelligence
for governments, industry, and communities. Our free app delivers address-level air pollution insights for the communities we serve. Aclima is a purpose-driven technology company helping to catalyze bold climate action that protects community health, reduces emissions, and supports smart government.Aclima is one of Fast Company’s 50 Most Innovative Companies in the World and #1 in Data Science, Inc Magazine’s Best in Business, a Fast Company 2022 World Changing Idea, a WEF Technology Pioneer, and one of the top 100 companies in GovTech for 2023.
