The ideal candidate is passionate and has a professional track record of combining artificial intelligence with physical data (vibration, temperature, sound, pressure, etc.), thrives in a fast-paced environment, and is eager to make an impact on the industrial world.

Qualifications:

- Proven experience and expertise in machine learning, time-series analysis, and anomaly/failure detection.

Technical Skills:

- Proficiency in programming languages such as Python, R, or Java.

- Experience with machine learning frameworks and libraries (TensorFlow, PyTorch, Scikit-learn).

- Familiarity with cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, Azure) for AI deployment.

- Strong understanding of signal processing concepts and hands-on experience with industrial sensor data (e.g., vibration, current, temperature, pressure).

- Ability to read, interpret, and apply insights from academic literature and state-of-the-art research in condition monitoring and fault diagnosis.

- Experience designing experiments to validate hypotheses and benchmark models.

Soft Skills:

- Strong analytical and problem-solving skills.

- Effective communication and collaboration abilities to work across teams.

- A curious mindset and a drive to innovate and experiment.

- Strong problem-solving skills and ability to handle noisy, high-dimensional data.

Preferred: - Prior experience working in industrial or manufacturing environments.

- Familiarity with both academic research and real-world applications in condition monitoring, fault diagnosis, and prognostics (e.g., vibration-based methods, model-based vs. data-driven approaches).

- Experience translating academic methods into robust, production-ready algorithms.
