About Us

Climate change is creating unprecedented challenges worldwide. At Mitiga Solutions, we help organizations understand, anticipate, and manage climate-related risks with science and technology.

Born from the Barcelona Supercomputing Center, we combine climate science, advanced modelling, and AI to turn complex data into actionable insights—from real-time forecasting to long-term projections.

Our mission is to build resilience and help organizations adapt. We’re looking for a Risk Modeller to join our Science team and shape the next generation of climate risk solutions for the energy sector.

In this role, you’ll develop quantitative methods that convert climate hazards into business and financial impacts. You’ll collaborate with scientists, engineers, product teams, and clients to build robust risk models for decision-making under uncertainty.

This is ideal if you enjoy tackling complex problems, working with uncertainty, and applying scientific insights in real-world solutions.

What You’ll Do

  • Develop and enhance risk modelling methodologies for our energy climate risk products.
  • Translate climate data into actionable business and financial risk metrics.
  • Design and validate probabilistic and statistical models.
  • Collaborate with product, data, and engineering teams to operationalize methodologies into scalable solutions.
  • Contribute to research and innovation initiatives related to climate and energy risk.
  • Engage with clients and partners to understand industry challenges and support product adoption.
  • Help evolve our energy risk offering and contribute to broader climate risk projects across the company.

What We're Looking For

  • Master's degree or PhD in Mathematics, Statistics, Economics, Engineering, Physics, or a related quantitative field.
  • 3+ years of experience in risk modelling, quantitative analysis, or related disciplines.
  • Strong knowledge of statistical modelling, uncertainty analysis, and probabilistic methods.
  • Experience working with Python, R, or similar analytical tools.
  • Understanding of the energy sector, particularly renewable energy, asset risk, portfolio management, or financial impacts.
  • Excellent communication skills and the ability to explain complex concepts to both technical and non-technical audiences.
  • Comfortable working in a fast-paced, collaborative environment with a high degree of autonomy.

We are open to a range of backgrounds. What matters most is drive, intellectual curiosity, and a genuine interest in climate or infrastructure.

Why work at Mitiga Solutions?

  • Purpose-driven impact. Your work will help shape resilience strategies for communities and critical infrastructure. From wildfires to windstorms, our models support decisions that matter.
  • Collaborative & inclusive culture. Work in multidisciplinary teams where transparency, rigour, and shared ownership are valued. Diverse perspectives are not only welcome, they are necessary.
  • Flexible working. Our hybrid model supports deep focus and balance. Enjoy compressed Fridays, 4-day summer weeks, your birthday off, and more!
  • State-of-the-art technology. We combine high-performance computing, proprietary modelling platforms, and machine learning to deliver accurate, high-resolution climate risk forecasts.
  • Flexible remuneration via Cobee. Get a monthly allowance for meals and maximize your salary with significant tax savings on transportation, learning, and more.
