THE ROLE
Trase is looking for a data scientist to help develop and maintain up-to-date data on supply chains and environmental impacts across Trase’s priority commodities (with a focus on soy, beef, palm oil, cocoa and wood pulp). You will play a key role in updating supply chain and impact data on these commodities, developing and maintaining reproducible workflows and quality assurance protocols, and innovating methods and data products to link impacts to production and trade. In addition, you will contribute to actionable insights from our data to drive impact with target audiences.
This role requires a strong data scientist with experience working with both spatial and non-spatial data, and an eagerness to learn about sustainability issues and methods. The ability to collaborate with colleagues across the team is key to success in this role.
The position is part of Trase’s product team, working alongside data engineers, back- and front-end web developers, a UX designer and other data scientists. You will be an active part of a global team of multinational, multidisciplinary and multilingual experts.
KEY RESPONSIBILITIES:
- applying existing methods to update commodity supply chains and spatial metrics on the environmental impacts of commodity production and supporting the preparation of documentation (approx. 50%)
- developing new methods, reproducible workflows, and quality assurance protocols to improve the efficiency of Trase workflows in collaboration with colleagues (approx. 20%)
- supporting the development of open-access data products, analysing Trase and third-party data to deliver key insights and summary statistics on the sustainability of commodity trade (approx. 20%)
- thinking creatively about bringing new data, technical solutions and procedures to enhance Trase’s core data offering, facilitating access and analysis of this data (approx. 10%)
