At Kpler, we simplify global trade information and provide valuable insights. Founded in 2014, our goal is to help over 10,000 organisations by offering the best intelligence on commodities, energy, and maritime through a single platform. Working at Kpler means you'll be a key player in turning complex data into strategic resources for our clients. Your role involves creating data-driven stories that empower clients in their industries. Your expertise helps Kpler navigate markets successfully. Your journey starts here, where innovation meets impact. Join our team of 500+ talented people from 35+ countries worldwide. Purpose of the rol Maritime domain awareness and commodity tracking involve the effective fusion of fragmented information that compose the complex commodity flows landscape. When combined efficiently, vessel tracking data and trading history, commodity supply and demand, proprietary trading data, and machine learning algorithms provide an understanding of events at ports and on open seas at different levels of granularity. Rapidly evolving global geopolitical developments and tensions significantly affect trading, disturbing the supply chain and altering commodity flow patterns which brings more uncertainty about the modelling of these phenomena. As a senior data scientist with Kpler's Flows team, you will develop algorithms that extend our comprehension of commodities flows in space and time by devising forecasting models, predicting future trades, detect anomalies in data and anomalous behaviour of various players.
