About the role
Whiteshield combines AI with economic expertise to solve real policy challenges. In the AI Economics unit, you’ll turn data into decisions that shape how governments and businesses set policy, manage resources, and plan for growth. You’ll combine AI, machine learning, geospatial analysis, and economic modelling to extract actionable intelligence from sources like satellite imagery, trade data, and macroeconomic indicators. You’ll design and automate data pipelines, power interactive dashboards and rankings, and build strategy tools that deliver measurable impact. Benefits - Real influence and access – Shape national policy, competitiveness strategies, and sustainable growth plans while working directly with senior government officials, global institutions, and major corporations. - Room to innovate – If you see a better way, try it. We encourage new methods and actively pilot new technologies. - Cutting-edge tools – Work with AI, LLMs, predictive modelling, geospatial analytics, and simulation platforms. - Structured growth – Learn from senior experts through hands-on mentoring and project-based skill transfer.
Requirements
- We are looking for strong data scientists and technically literate consultants. We ask people to understand a problem, ideate a solution that addresses the core need, build it technically, then communicate it with clarity and confidence. If you are capable of some of that and eager to develop the rest, we encourage you to apply.
- Intellectual curiosity, problem-solving drive, and a focus on real-world impact are the priorities
