Product Owner & Python Developer- Geology specialist

Who we are Imaged Reality is a UK technology company with a team of passionate geologists and tech innovators. Our mission is to help teams make better decisions. We help reduce geological uncertainty in investment decisions by bringing together teams and data in an immersive environment. We are the creators of Stratbox, a platform for collaborative data integration in the 3D space, serving various industries such as Energy, Engineering, Mining, and Academia. The Stratbox Suite comprises:Stratbox Core Explorer the digital twin for well core stores, breaks data silos integrating multi-well core images with underlying data, powered with Stratbox Python API for machine learning. Stratbox Analytics, for quantitative outcrop interpretation, also enabled with Stratbox Python API for advanced analytics.Stratbox Connect the digital twin for outcrop Geology, brings the field to the office, using 3D models derived from drone data. It facilitates collaboration, learning and knowledge capture, through on-demand access to sharable 3D outcrop analogue databases. Stratbox Connect VR, the metaverse for Geoscience, helps communicate complex environments and improve decision making between multidisciplinary teams. The role We are seeking a talented geologist with experience in Python programming, 3D modelling, 3D geospatial analysis, ArcGIS, geostatistics, and machine learning to join our team as a Product Owner & Python Developer.
