through AI-native climate control powered by sensors, digital twins, and autonomous control systems.
The KTP Associate will lead the development and deployment of advanced thermal comfort and grid demand response physics models into Cosysense’s AI control system. You will act as the bridge between academic research and real-world application, translating cutting-edge building physics and human comfort modelling into production-ready algorithms controlling HVAC systems in live buildings. In line with the KTP model, the Associate is embedded at Cosysense day to day, engaging regularly with the University of Edinburgh for knowledge transfer and academic supervision.
This role will be primarily based at Cosysense.
The role combines:
- Research (building physics and energy systems)
- Applied AI/modelling
- Real-world deployment and validation in commercial buildings
