Beta Technologies is pioneering a sustainable electric transport ecosystem with advanced vertical aircraft and extensive charging infrastructure. Working here means contributing to cutting-edge aviation technology that reduces carbon emissions while solving complex data challenges in a rapidly evolving industry.
About This Role
This Data Scientist role focuses on building and maintaining production-grade machine learning models and data pipelines specifically for digital products in electric aviation. You'll directly impact flight operations, charging infrastructure optimization, and aircraft performance analytics through data-driven solutions.
💡 A Day in the Life
A typical day might involve refining data pipelines that process aircraft sensor data, collaborating with engineering teams to improve model performance for flight predictions, and building dashboards that help stakeholders monitor charging station utilization. You'll balance hands-on coding with cross-functional meetings to align data solutions with product goals.
🚀 Application Tools
🎯 Who Beta Technologies Is Looking For
- Has 5+ years experience deploying ML models in production environments, not just prototyping
- Demonstrates proficiency in Python with clean, maintainable code for data pipelines and model deployment
- Has experience with data lakes and building dashboards/tools for technical stakeholders
- Can effectively communicate complex data concepts to both engineering teams and business stakeholders
📝 Tips for Applying to Beta Technologies
Highlight specific experience with production ML model deployment and monitoring, not just model development
Showcase projects involving data pipelines from data lakes, especially with time-series or sensor data relevant to aviation
Demonstrate how you've built data exploration tools or dashboards for technical users
Mention any experience with electric vehicles, aviation, or sustainability-focused data projects
Quantify impact of your data quality checks or monitoring systems in previous roles
