Researcher - Data Scientist

Our team of engineers, scientists, and software developers explores the potential of Artificial Intelligence to solve some of the world's most challenging problems. We integrate machine learning, systems modeling, advanced control, and mathematical optimization to tackle complex engineering challenges. Our ultimate mission is to develop sustainable technologies that drive progress and contribute to the advancement of human development.

About the position

At IDENER.AI, we are looking for a Data Scientist to join our team in Seville. You will work across a growing portfolio of R&D and private-sector projects — including but not limited to the ones listed above — applying machine learning, data analysis, and AI-driven decision-support solutions in domains such as maritime security and surveillance, multimodal XR training, and intelligent sensor systems.

Key Responsibilities

• Design, develop, and apply machine learning and data science solutions for international R&D projects, contributing to predictive models, intelligent analytics, decision-support tools, and data-driven digital platforms.
• Build end-to-end workflows covering data acquisition, preprocessing, feature engineering, model training, and evaluation.
• Work with heterogeneous data sources depending on project needs, including tabular data, time series, text, sensor data, and, where relevant, image or video data.
• Contribute to the development of robust and explainable AI/ML models to support scientific, technical, and operational decision-making.
• Perform exploratory data analysis, data visualization, and interpretation of results to support project activities and technical conclusions.
• Collaborate with multidisciplinary teams including data scientists, AI engineers, software developers, and domain experts to translate research into practical solutions.
• Contribute to reproducible experimentation practices, scalable data pipelines, and production-oriented integration of AI components.
• Prepare technical reports, scientific publications, and deliverables for international R&D projects (e.g., Horizon Europe).
• Stay up to date with the latest advancements in Data Science, Machine Learning, and Applied AI, contributing proactively with new ideas and proposals.
• Participate in the preparation and writing of EU-funded research proposals (e.g., Horizon Europe), including the definition of technical work packages, pilot use cases, and consortium contributions.
