Job description

The role

The Senior Research Scientist is an office-based position located in Calgary, reporting to the Team Lead, Research Engineer. This role focuses primarily on advancing Seequent Labs' research and prototyping in geological modelling and artificial intelligence through novel and efficient applications of algorithms, analytics, and computing. Working within a supportive and dynamic cross-functional team environment, the successful candidate will drive innovation across the full development lifecycle-from ideation and testing through to prototyping and customer validation-while always considering the potential fit to market. This role is instrumental in tackling complex geomodelling challenges with disruptive solutions that will have a lasting impact on Seequent and the broader industry. 

In this role, you will have the opportunity to:

  • Discover, research, prototype, and validate new geomodelling algorithms and workflows.
  • Drive organizational best practices and champion innovation across multiple projects or research areas.
  • Inform stakeholders of the latest advancements in geomodelling to integrate cutting-edge research into practical solutions.
  • Act as a technical advisor for other colleagues within the business.
  • Formulate and document benchmarks and case studies.
  • Contribute to internal and external activities for knowledge and expertise sharing.
  • Collaborate with universities and research programs when needed.
  • Present research to customers to gather feedback and identify opportunities for improvement.
  • Promote Seequent Labs' mandate and research both internally (within Seequent and Bentley) and externally through conferences and publications.
  • Contribute to building and maintaining relationships with both academic and industry partners.
  • Work with technical committees and working groups to influence industry standards and drive innovation within the field of geomodelling.
  • Collaborate closely with other colleagues within the Seequent business (the role has no direct reports).
  • Travel occasionally to attend conferences and meet with colleagues and clients.

Essential Knowledge, Skills, And Experience

  • Minimum of 7 years of experience in similar roles.
  • Professional experience in the industry outside of academia.
  • A Master's graduate (or equivalent) with extensive experience in the domain, or a PhD graduate with several years of relevant experience.
  • Demonstrable extensive experience in geosciences, such as geochemistry, structural geology, prospectivity, exploration geology, mining geology, or geological modelling.
  • Demonstrable extensive quantitative expertise gained in domains of expertise, such as numerical analysis, optimization, probabilistic methods, and AI & Machine Learning.
  • Strong planning skills and the ability to coordinate activities involving a team and multiple stakeholders.
  • Strong problem-solving mentality and a growth mindset.
  • Business-oriented mindset with the ability to influence and contribute to the product strategy.
