UI/UX Designer (Remote)

At Blue Sky Analytics, we specialise in converting satellite data into actionable, high-frequency climate datasets for physical climate risks around the world. These data sets have multiple use cases in banking, asset management, insurance, natural capital asset markets, carbon credit markets, supply chain risk management, disaster management, and more.

We are also a founding member of TRACE, led by former US Vice President Al Gore, which aggregates and tracks global greenhouse gas emissions and provides input for climate change negotiations between nations and various policy decisions. We provide wildfire emission data to Climate TRACE.

We have been recognised and awarded in the categories of space-tech/climate-tech/AI & Data Innovation by Fast Company, MIT, The Times, The Tech for Global Good, Space Oscars, and AWS Space. You can also check out our products, SpaceTime™ & Climate Data Hub, which can be logged in with any Gmail account for the freemium version to see for yourself.

Recently, we mapped major water bodies worldwide; users can see how a water body has changed over the years and get estimates of surface area. This is a unique body of work with multiple use cases. Additionally, we are producing a 7-day forecast of wildfires worldwide and measuring emissions from wildfires. We are also building many more data sets, such as flood forecasting, inundations, measuring water quality, power plant emissions, landfill emissions, and more.

We are a team of 25 (data scientists, Engineers, Sales & Marketing) based in Gurugram, The Hague, and Mumbai.
