About the role

Our control systems can only act on what the plant knows about itself, and this role is responsible for most of that knowledge. The work includes:

• Reinforcement learning agents that learn to control our processes in simulation

• Time-series models for forecasting and detection

• Vision systems that measure things no instrument can

• Soft sensors that estimate lab results we can't get back fast enough

• Classifiers that flag faults early

You'll set technical direction for applied ML across our sites and build much of it yourself, from data to deployment. The scope is wide on purpose. We care more about range and good judgment than deep expertis
