Who we are:

At Pratt & Whitney, we believe that powered flight has transformed – and will continue to transform – the world. That’s why we work with an explorer’s heart and a perfectionist’s grit to design, build, and service the world’s most advanced aircraft engines. We do this across a diverse portfolio – including Commercial Engines, Military Engines, Business Aviation, General Aviation, Regional Aviation, and Helicopter Aviation – and as a way of turning possibilities into realities for our customers. This is how we at Pratt & Whitney approach our work, and therefore we are inspired to go beyond. 

What are our expectations:

P&WC engines are equipped with on-board data recorder solutions (FAST™/DCTU) that transmit wirelessly engine full flight data to P&WC Ground station File Processing Center for data processing and reporting for diagnostic and health management analysis to determine applicable engine maintenance tasks.  The DPHM Ground team is developing applications to process engine full flight data and generate multiple reports and dataset distributed to various consumers.

The DPHM Ground team is seeking a talented and system-aware Data Engineer to join our expanding data platform team. The ideal candidate will be responsible for supporting, developing, and optimizing our modern, event-driven data pipeline using Kafka streams, stateful processing with RocksDB, Microsoft SQL, and Power BI integrated dashboards. This role involves transforming legacy database components into a scalable data warehouse, enhancing observability, reliability, and performance, and converting raw data into actionable insights for clients and stakeholders.

Join our team and be a part of evolving our real-time data pipeline hybrid infrastructure, ensuring high performance, resilience, and a scalable cloud-compatible environment for P&WC Ground Station.

Enhance and maintain database APIs for both batch and real-time data consumers throughout the Ground and Analytics pipeline.
• Database Optimization & Complex Query Engineering: Optimize SQL queries and stored procedures for high-volume transactional loads. Collaborate with data analysts and business units to model data tables and relations that support Power BI needs. Fine-tune indexing strategies, partitioning, and caching logic.
• System Monitoring, Observability & Quality: Instrument data pipeline components and APIs with structured logs for ingestion into OpenSearch and visualization in Kibana. Conduct continuous quality checks during data transformation and ingestion phases to ensure data traceability and capture anomalies.
• Cross-Functional Collaboration: Work closely with the team to test and validate data pipeline artifacts. Support internal and external developers in producing and consuming data pipelines and APIs through documentation and well-defined contracts/schemas.
