Responsibilities:

• Develop subsurface imaging algorithms based on data acquired from multiple sensors.
• Define and implement Signal Processing methods.
• Validate performance of developed solutions based on empirical studies, and clearly communicate and document conclusions.
• Collaborate with team members and provide necessary support for technology transfer.
• Support existing technology in production environment.
• Stay up to date with industry technology and software trends to bring ideas to geophysical solutions.

Requirements

• B.Sc. in Geophysics or Physics.
• Two years of experience in a relevant industry, working with real data.
• Results-oriented, high levels of curiosity, independence, and creativity.
• Outstanding teamwork capabilities.
• Proficiency in geophysical signal processing (seismic, ground penetrating radar, ERT, FDEM).
• Knowledge of Geotech data acquisition processes (e.g., SPT, CPT).
• Experience with Linux-based systems and Python programming language.
• Demonstrated ability to conceive of and develop creative/innovative technology.
• Demonstrated teamwork, strong communication skills, and collaboration in complex projects.
• Proficiency in deep learning algorithms and frameworks.
• Working with modern source control.
• Proficiency in numerical modeling of elastic and EM wave propagation.
• Proficiency in optimization methods to solve inverse problems.
