As we steer our ambitious roadmap for ShipIntel feature development and analytics forward, we're looking to expand our data science team.
Maritime Optima AS was established in 2018 and came into operation in May 2019. We aim to modernize the “office” part of the commercial shipping since most of the companies are using legacy software tools while technological developments in satellite surveillance and real-time data analysis opened the door to new levels of automation and decision support. It has become possible to create software to answer questions such as “what are my competitors doing” and “what are the most profitable contracts I can find for my vessels”.
The company is financed by the founders and shipping investors. We are developing two products: ShipIntel for professional teams and ShipAtlas for individuals. ShipAtlas has more than 450 000 registered users and the growth is strong. ShipIntel was launched in august 2024 and will be our main commercial focus in 2025.
We are 18 employees in Oslo, Athens and Singapore, most of us are working in our Oslo office in Vika Atrium. We work mostly on-site because we value the physical community and culture, and we find it to be more productive when working on complex exploratory challenges. Even though we are in our 5th year of operation, it is still very much a startup vibe here, the whole crew being extremely enthusiastic about what we do.
The tech team is currently 10 people, a mix of backend, frontend and data science. We organize ourselves according to the scrum framework, to handle multiple complex areas: global vessel tracking and real-time analysis, vessel routing and prediction, live position list, voyage calculations etc.
We are seeking a Junior Data Engineer to join our tech team. In this role, you will apply your data wrangling, data engineering, machine learning, and software development skills to build and maintain our core data pipelines and modeling efforts. You will contribute to projects ranging from vessel parameter prediction to cargo flow analysis, and from generating specialized spatial datasets to improving models that predict vessel destinations.
