In this role, you will work closely with Engineering, Operations, Quality, and software teams to solve real manufacturing problems using statistics, machine learning, and data-driven applications. Your work will have a direct connection to production, from identifying the causes of process variation to developing predictive models and tools that help engineers make faster, better decisions. You'll engage across the full data science lifecycle: exploring large, multifaceted datasets, developing and validating models alongside domain experts, and helping transition successful solutions into production environments. You will also play a key role in guiding how our organization applies modern analytics and AI techniques within manufacturing. This is a role for someone who enjoys both the technical work and the problem-solving that happens when data meets the real world. What You Will Do * Develop statistical and machine learning solutions that address manufacturing, test, quality, and production challenges * Explore large and complex datasets to identify patterns, process drivers, anomalies, and opportunities for improvement * Build and deploy Python-based analytical and machine learning applications that are used by engineers and factory teams * Partner directly with engineers, operators, and technical stakeholders to understand problems and translate them into practical data solutions * Develop visualizations and analytical tools that make complex data easier to understand and act on * Help establish sustainable approaches for deploying, monitoring, and maintaining machine learning solutions * Mentor other data scientists and engineers and contribute to the team's technical direction and best practices * Build deep expertise in factory and test data and use that knowledge to identify new opportunities for data science and automation
