Mid-level or Senior Engineering Data Scientist

Boeing Boeing · Aerospace · Everett, WA +1

This role focuses on developing and deploying predictive models and data-driven tools to enhance aerospace safety by analyzing diverse aviation datasets. It involves model development, validation, ETL pipeline creation, and translating insights into actionable recommendations for stakeholders.

What you'd actually do

  1. Design, develop, validate, and maintain descriptive, diagnostic, predictive, and prescriptive models that quantify risk, identify anomalies, and support safety strategy.
  2. Perform exploratory, statistical, and time/trajectory-based analyses to surface safety trends, root causes, and risk drivers.
  3. Build reusable data products, APIs, dashboards, and monitoring systems that operationalize analytic insights for engineering, flight operations, and safety teams.
  4. Translate analytic results into clear findings, technical reports, and actionable recommendations for cross-functional stakeholders.
  5. Ingest, clean, fuse, and validate large and diverse aviation datasets (Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast [ADS-B], FDM [Flight Data Monitoring], flight alerts, text reports, etc.) and build robust ETL/ELT pipelines.
