TerraSense Analytics

Description

TerraSense Analytics is looking to expand!

We’re a fully funded startup: enjoy the culture, environment and pace of a startup with the security and financial stability of an established company.

We truly believe that it’s our team that drives this company and its success so far. We are looking for talented new team members to join us. We want people who encompass our values of being self-driven, authentic, and interested in pushing the envelope of AI/deep learning. 

 

WHY WORK WITH US?

We believe in the change we can bring with our technology. Our technology is on the forefront of AI and deep learning with real world application. We work together with NVIDIA, UBC and Transport Canada to help modernize Canada. Our products work with two sectors: Aerospace and the Defense sector. 

Our diverse team consists of people from a variety of backgrounds who enjoy leading initiatives and are self motivated  (flexible office hours), hungry to learn more (training and professional development allowance), are team players (team activities), and are passionate in seeing how we can change the world together.

We’re located in the beautiful city of Kelowna, British Columbia. We’re convinced it’s the greatest place on earth and to prove it, we’re offering the right person the chance to experience it with us: we’ll pay for the relocation fees. The position could also be fully remote with working in BC or Alberta.
