According to the company, the influx of tech talent will support the development of its high-tech solutions using AI, automation, and machine learning to help speed the energy transition and keep offshore wind competitive. 

The new roles are in areas such as machine learning, computer vision autonomy, data, AI, and robotics software engineering. The majority will be mid to senior-level positions.

The recruitment drives are said to be part of the companies’ broader plans for global expansion. Several new offices will also be opening across European and Asian markets.

Brian Allen, CEO of Rovco and Vaarst, said: “Technology will be vital in improving the economics of offshore wind and accelerating the energy transition. Regions like Aberdeen that have a rich heritage in offshore oil and gas are well placed to benefit from this transition. We’re looking for people who are passionate about technology for good and can help us on our mission to change the economics of offshore wind.”
