At Planetai Space, our mission is to offer each person evidence-based technological tools to help them make strategic decisions associated with sustainability and the health of the planet. We believe in our talent to be part of the change that transforms the well-being of the planet and contributes to building a better world, especially for the next generations, who are the fundamental pillars of our future.

Our vision is to become the technology of reference for quantifying the past, present, and future of the planet's natural resources by using the most modern advances available in fields such as Earth Observation, Astrophysics, Theoretical and Computational Chemistry, Fluid Dynamics, and new models in health. 

Our purpose is to raise awareness worldwide about the serious damage pollution is causing to our planet and to contribute our knowledge to finding solutions. 

The primary focus of this role is to develop algorithms based on artificial intelligence to monitor the planet. This entails working with commercial and open-source numerical software The numerical findings will be cross-validated with experimental data sourced from literature and internally generated results.

Key Responsibilities:

• Engage in and oversee the research project alongside the Principal Investigator (PI), and other team members to ensure the timely achievement of project goals.
• Meet project deliverables within specified timeframes, including:
  • Exploring diverse numerical models capable of capturing droplet behavior across steady and transient states, spanning nanometer to millimeter scales.
  • Developing numerical methodologies to monitor the planet accurately
  • Comparing and validating numerical outcomes with experimental data from literature and internal experiments.
  • Utilizing cutting-edge machine learning techniques to craft multi-scale models.
• Assist the PI in drafting reports, conference proceedings, and journal articles based on project outcomes.
• Provide fortnightly progress reports to the PI.
• Support and manage procurement and upkeep of software/hardware under the PI's jurisdiction.
• Conduct risk assessments and ensure compliance with relevant safety regulations.
• Work autonomously and collaboratively within a team to ensure proper equipment operation and maintenance.

Job Requirements:
