Vaisalais a global leader in measurement instruments and intelligence helping
industries, nations, people, and the planet to thrive. From predicting
hurricanes to optimizing renewable energy production, our technology is used
where it matters the most - from data centers, windfarms and laboratories to
airports, the Arctic and even the surface of Mars. Our team of over 2,300
experts and 59 nationalities around the world is committed to taking every
measure for the planet. Driven by our shared purpose, curiosity, and
pioneering spirit, we stay ahead and make a difference. At Vaisala, you
don't have to fit in to belong.
As a leading provider of weather and environmental measurement sensing
solutions Vaisala plays a critical role in providing accurate and reliable
atmospheric and environmental data to meteorological services, the wind
energy business, and city, road and airport authorities, worldwide.
Xweather is all about taking this data and putting it to work by adding
intelligence and developing cloud-based applications to help our customers
operate more safely, efficiently, and sustainably.
Position Description:
You will work with a tight-knit, talented and committed team of
individuals, from diverse backgrounds and cultures, based in Vaisala's
US HQ Boulder, Colorado, and our colleagues in Europe. You will be
involved with working on cutting-edge projects, and deliver industry leading
solutions to weather sensitive customers, in a time when climate change and
its impacts are more severe than ever before. The team works on a hybrid work

the teams in Helsinki.
What we do:
Vaisala is the world leader in lightning detection and its global data is used
by organizations across the world. Real-time awareness of lightning, severe
weather and a detailed understanding of its characteristics are critical for
the successful operation of services that many of us take for granted in
everyday life: the delivery of electricity to keep our lights on, and the
operation of aircraft to get us safely from A to B, are two great examples.
The solutions we develop include applications to protect outdoor workers,
protect critical infrastructure, help wildfire management, and support
weather forecasting.
We are constantly learning, and welcome curious people to join us on that
journey. We share our knowledge and work together to make a difference in a
world that is experiencing increasingly extreme weather events.
