Lobelia Earth is a pioneering company in the use of Earth Observation satellites to address the climate emergency. We develop and operate services to study the state of the Earth’s resources, and provide key data for adaptation and mitigation measures in face of the climate crisis.
Lobelia’s team is composed of passionate experts in physics, earth sciences, graphic design, computer science, engineering and business. We apply this interdisciplinary knowledge to actual products people use and want to use. We work with trusted data providers and have a growing network of international collaborators that are as engaged as we are to drive for change.
Lobelia is looking for an Account Manager for City Projects to strengthen its core product team and participate, among others, in our long-term goal to promote healthier and more resilient cities in a decarbonized society.
Satellite and ground sensor data are becoming increasingly open access and free of charge, supporting the public and private sectors in integrating systemically the human activities footprints in the urban environments. However, in practical terms, handling these large and heterogeneous data sources, combining knowledge of the physical context, climate, air quality, traffic modeling data and other derived compound impacts, present technical and scientific limitations. At Lobelia, we build on the synergies of transversal fields/disciplines to tackle these inherent challenges. Reporting to the Commercial Director, you will work closely with our senior data scientists, in collaboration with our software product team, and will be advised by our atmospheric pollution and climate experts, to ensure the coordination and fitness of solutions for the engaged stakeholders.
