Forensic Meteorologists work within a team to ensure 24x7 operational support of our algorithms and both the data they use as inputs as well as the data that they produce.
A successful Forensic Meteorologist has a passion for monitoring severe weather and radar, is extremely detail-oriented, and exhibits extreme ownership of the data products that they are supporting. They should be comfortable working side by side with Scientists, Business Product Managers, User Experience, Development teams, and Clients to support both operational and experimental efforts within the organization. We look for people that are not afraid to identify what we are doing wrong so we can fix it, and what we are doing right so we can improve on it. Above all, we look for candidates that judge their success by the success of the team and the happiness of our customers.
