About the role

• Data Scientist developing data-driven software solutions for AIXTRON's deposition systems. Analyzing complex data, implementing predictive models, and collaborating with data engineering teams.

Responsibilities

• Analyze and prepare complex data from various sources to derive actionable insights.
• Work closely with domain experts to understand requirements and develop data-driven solutions.
• Develop and implement models for predictive maintenance, time series analysis, and anomaly detection.
• Collaborate with the data engineering team to generate new insights from structured and unstructured data.
• Present and visualize results and models effectively, e.g., using Plotly Dash.
• Take responsibility for deploying your solutions to production environments.
• Ensure deployed models are monitored, maintained, and updated throughout their lifecycle.
• Actively contribute to continuously improving and keeping our ML solutions up to date.

Requirements

• Experience with CI/CD, containerization (Docker/Podman), and REST APIs or similar interfaces.
• Comfortable working in Windows and Linux environments.
• Knowledge of data visualization (e.g., Plotly Dash) and handling large datasets.
• Understanding of deployment, monitoring, and lifecycle management of ML solutions.
• Creativity, the ability to work independently, and strong problem-solving skills.
• No fear of large datasets — even though we do not operate a classical big-data setup.
• Knowledge of the semiconductor industry is a plus but not required.
