Tomorrow.io Space division is responsible for the development of unique spaceborne sensing systems and for the overall space mission, from architecture through implementation. The data being collected will be integrated seamlessly into Tomorrow.io existing forecasting and modelling systems and will revolutionize global weather forecasting and insights.
As an Atmospheric Scientist focused on Data Assimilation, you will work across the Numerical Weather Prediction (NWP) team and Tomorrow.io space division to evaluate various satellite products as candidates for assimilation into Tomorrow.io NWP system. In this role, you will perform research and development involving the evaluation and eventual operational assimilation of remotely sensed data into global NWP models. Research will include performing thorough literature reviews, evaluating potential assimilation methodologies, helping to define observation system requirements, performing Observing System Simulation Experiment (OSSE) and/or Forecast Sensitivity Observation Impact (FSOI) studies to help inform Tomorrow.io strategy of assimilation of novel data sources.
If you want to become part of a team that leverages a wealth of cutting edge cloud computing technologies that remains state-of-the-art to support the scientific goals, and to work with experts in geophysical fluid dynamics, operational NWP, atmospheric data assimilation, atmospheric data science, ensemble forecast, global modeling, applied mathematics, etc, - This is your opportunity to become part of a winning team that enables Tomorrow.io to build modeling systems that are based on rigorous scientific studies and practices while leveraging the growing fields of data analysis and analytics.
