Role Description
JETNET is seeking an Aviation Intelligence Data Scientist to help shape the future of aviation data intelligence. This is not a traditional analytics role. It is a strategic, hands-on opportunity for a data scientist who can architect intelligence frameworks, build AI-enabled workflows, and transform vast historical and live aviation data into scalable, production-ready capabilities.
In this role, you will sit at the center of JETNET’s evolution into a modern Data Operations & Aviation Intelligence function. You will partner closely with leadership, engineering, and frontline research teams to develop intelligence models and systems that improve data quality, accelerate researcher workflows, strengthen product innovation, and expand JETNET’s competitive advantage in the aviation intelligence space.
Key Responsibilities
- Lead the design of JETNET’s post-ingestion intelligence layer, converting raw aviation data into structured, workflow-ready insights.
- Build and refine intelligence frameworks such as confidence scoring, inference models, entity resolution, ownership continuity, and relationship strength modeling.
- Develop AI-assisted workflows and LLM-enabled tools that surface ranked suggestions, next-best actions, and confidence-weighted recommendations for researchers.
- Identify and prioritize high-value data gaps and enrichment opportunities across aircraft, companies, contacts, and related aviation entities.
- Design graph-based models and linking strategies to strengthen relationship discovery and reduce duplication across datasets.
- Apply process mining and operational analytics to improve the ingest, verification, and publishing lifecycle, reducing bottlenecks and cycle time.
- Partner with aviation researchers to build practical, scalable solutions that improve consistency, speed, and data confidence in daily workflows.
- Lead end-to-end data science initiatives from problem framing through experimentation, validation, deployment, and performance monitoring.
- Collaborate closely with the CTO and Engineering Team to productionize models and intelligence capabilities within modern data environments.
- Translate complex findings into clear, executive-ready reporting, dashboards, and recommendations that support strategic decision-making.
Qualifications
- Proven success independently leading end-to-end data science initiatives from concept to production deployment.
- Strong expertise in AI/ML, including building, evaluating, and optimizing production-grade models and LLM-assisted systems.
- Experience designing intelligent workflows that blend automation, analyst judgment, and measurable performance improvement.
- Hands-on experience with graph-based linking, probabilistic modeling, entity resolution, and relationship discovery techniques.
- Strong operational mindset, with experience using analytics to identify process optimization opportunities and improve workflow outcomes.
- Experience working with both structured and unstructured data, including OCR and extraction workflows.
- Advanced proficiency in Python and SQL, with experience in modern cloud data environments and model deployment practices.
- Strong business judgment and the ability to prioritize work that delivers meaningful product, operational, and customer impact.
- Excellent communication skills, including the ability to explain complex technical concepts to non-technical audiences and executives.
- Curiosity, ownership, and a builder mentality, with enthusiasm for solving difficult data problems in a specialized industry.
