Information Technology – Senior Data Scientist (Optimization Track)

Roles & Responsibilities

Job Description

This is a senior data scientist position for our mathematical optimization / operations research area, expanding on his / her prior repertoire of skills in data science and machine learning to include exact / approximate methods for linear and nonlinear optimization problems.

Responsibilities :

• Collaborate with cross-functional teams (business stakeholders, domain experts, engineers) to identify and frame challenging problems in mathematical optimization and operations research.
• Design, develop, and deploy optimization solutions that have direct impact on aircraft assignment, crew scheduling and other related operational areas, including predictive models to required forecast demand, disruptions, or operational KPIs. Validate models and solutions through rigorous testing, scenario analysis, and sensitivity studies; communicate results and trade-offs clearly to technical and non-technical audiences.
• Work closely with application development teams to help them operationalize and integrate optimization capabilities on their software systems, advise on data requirements, API design, performance considerations, and monitoring.
• Monitor and maintain production optimization services, troubleshoot issues, and iterate on models and algorithms as business needs evolve.
• Stay current on advances in operations research, optimization solvers (e.g., Gurobi), algorithmic improvements, and relevant data science techniques; evaluate new tools or libraries and recommend adoption where beneficial.
