Job Description:

Job description: Data Science Intern for Airframe Structures

Team: Structures – Aerostructures Data Management

Background :

Enable advanced digital capabilities in the perimeter of Airframe related Design, Modeling, Simulation, Testing and Inspection along the lifecycle of Aircraft development using Data Analytics / Artificial Intelligence / Machine Learning.

Role :

The Intern will act as a Data Scientist focusing on Airframe related applications with the task to provide safe and balanced data driven design solutions. They will play a key role in developing machine learning and deep learning (classification, regression, time-series and natural language processing including Generative AI) models and/or analytics dashboards & stand-alone web applications to analyze aircraft structure’s operational reliability and build predictive and prescriptive models that assist in modeling, simulation and automation. They need to engage in tasks related to data engineering, knowledge graph creation, chatbot building, tuning and monitoring.

Technical Skills

Key Skills

• Programming Proficiency: Foundational knowledge and hands-on experience in Python. Familiarity with basic data manipulation libraries like Pandas and statistical packages.

• Machine Learning (ML) Basics : Basic understanding of supervised learning concepts (Classification, Regression), and exposure to Deep Learning (DL) or Neural Networks is a plus.

• NLP & Generative AI Curiosity : Strong interest in Natural Language Processing (NLP) and Large Language Models (LLMs). Project experience involving text analysis or LLMs is highly desirable.
