Partial Discharge Data Scientist

About the role

We are looking for an experienced Data Scientist to develop advanced analytics for our partial discharge monitoring and predictive maintenance platform.

Optics11 is a deep-tech company developing advanced fiber-optic sensing technologies for challenging environments and applications in energy and underwater security. Our systems enable high-performance sensing and monitoring through advanced photonics, signal processing, and data-driven intelligence.

We are expanding our partial discharge R&D team with a Data Scientist who is motivated to translate complex business and engineering challenges into scalable, data-driven solutions that enabling next-generation acoustic emission monitoring solutions by processing sensor signals to early detect, localize and quantify partial discharge in energy infrastructure.

You will work closely with cross-functional teams (embedded, software, and hardware) to design, develop, and deploy advanced algorithms that predict energy infrastructure failures.

Previous experience in partial discharge, acoustic emission or electrical signal processing is an advantage, but not a dealbreaker. We value strong analytical thinking, curiosity, and the willingness to learn new domains.

Key Responsibilities:
Design, develop, validate, and maintain algorithms for sensor data analysis, partial-discharge monitoring, and predictive analytics.

Translate complex business and engineering requirements into robust, production-ready algorithms.

Analyse large-scale sensor, time-series, and operational datasets to identify meaningful patterns and improve monitoring platform performance

Develop signal-processing, feature-engineering, statistical-modelling, and machine-learning pipelines.

Collaborate with software and platform engineers to integrate algorithms into the cloud monitoring platform and edge environments.

Monitor deployed algorithm performance and contribute to model maintenance, retraining, and continuous improvement.

Why Join Us?
Join one of Europe’s most promising deep-tech scale-ups.

Shape the future of a rapidly growing multidisciplinary R&D organization.

Competitive salary and benefits package.

Enjoy regular team activities and company events.

Fresh team lunches provided 3 times/week.
