ML Hydrologist, Flood Forecasting

About the Role Global ML flood models now outperform traditional approaches on large rivers, but they still break down in the small, fast catchments where flash floods happen. Riverkin, a VC-backed ETH Zürich Spin-off, is closing that gap. We start from hydrological models trained across thousands of catchments worldwide and make them accurate locally, using a sensor network we deploy ourselves in exactly the places public datasets don't reach. We are looking for an ML hydrologist to own that wo
