Data Scientist

Senior Data Scientist – Optimization

We’re hiring a Senior Data Scientist with strong Optimization / Operations Research expertise to join a high-impact team working on complex aviation problems.

This is not a typical ML-focused Data Scientist role — the focus is on building and deploying advanced optimization models to drive real-world decision-making at scale.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Design and develop optimization models (Linear, Non-linear, Mixed Integer Programming, Constraint-based)
• Translate complex business problems into mathematical frameworks
• Work closely with Analytics, Product, and Engineering teams to deliver data-driven solutions
• Build end-to-end solutions: data exploration → modeling → validation → deployment
• Apply optimization techniques to scheduling, resource allocation, and planning problems
• Ensure models are scalable, robust, and production-ready
• Communicate insights and trade-offs clearly to senior stakeholders
• Mentor junior data scientists and review technical work

Must-have Experience

• Strong hands-on experience with optimization modelling (non-negotiable)
• Expertise in:
  • Linear Programming (LP)
  • Mixed Integer Programming (MIP)
  • Constraint Optimization
• Experience in areas such as:
  • Crew scheduling / pairing
  • Aircraft / flight scheduling
  • Network or fleet planning
  • Resource allocation / operations planning
• Proficiency in Python with tools like:
  • Pyomo / PuLP
  • OR-Tools
  • Gurobi / CPLEX
• Strong foundations in mathematics, statistics, and algorithms
• Experience solving real-world optimization problems (not just academic)
