Description 

We are seeking a highly motivated Data Analyst II to join the Powertrain Data & Automation team. This role will focus on data analytics and predictive modeling for Powertrain components to ensure reliability, performance, and fleet readiness for commercial ride-hailing deployment. The ideal candidate has a strong analytical mindset, solid experience with time-series data, and the ability to translate complex telemetry signals into actionable insights that drive engineering and operational decisions.

 

Responsibilities

Powertrain Root Cause Analytics

  • Perform in-depth root cause analysis of Powertrain failures and performance deviations across Drive Unit, MPB, and Inverter systems.
  • Leverage high-frequency telemetry, diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs), and EOL test data to isolate component-level issues.
  • Build structured failure mode classification and statistical analysis frameworks to support engineering teams’ troubleshooting.

 

Fleet Health Monitoring Architecture

  • Contribute to the design and implementation of end-to-end fleet health monitoring pipelines for the Uber Gravity fleet.
  • Integrate real-time vehicle telemetry streams, signal processing, and anomaly detection models to enable proactive fault identification.
  • Develop alerting and visualization dashboards to provide engineering and operations teams with actionable fleet health insights.

 

Data Modeling and Predictive Analytics

  • Develop and deploy statistical and ML models (e.g., regression, time-series forecasting) to characterize Powertrain component degradation over time.
  • Quantify failure probabilities, forecast performance drift, and support reliability growth plans and operational readiness.

 

Requirements 

  • Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Data Science, Electrical/Mechanical Engineering, Computer Science, Applied Mathematics, or related field.
  • 3+ years of experience in data analytics, preferably in automotive, mobility, or related industries.
  • Strong proficiency in Python (pandas, NumPy, scikit-learn) and SQL for data analysis and modeling.
  • Experience working with large-scale time-series and telemetry datasets.
  • Familiarity with data visualization tools (e.g., Power BI, Tableau, Plotly, Dash, or similar).
  • Strong analytical skills and ability to translate complex data into clear insights and recommendations.

Preferred

  • Experience with vehicle Powertrain systems (e.g., Drive Unit, Inverter, Battery, MPB).
  • Knowledge of anomaly detection, signal processing, and predictive maintenance techniques.
  • Familiarity with cloud data platforms (e.g., AWS, Databricks, Dremio) and version control (e.g., Git).
  • Experience working in a cross-functional engineering environment.

 

Why Join Us?

  • Be part of a high-impact team enabling the future of autonomous ride-hailing.
  • Work with cutting-edge Powertrain technologies and real-world fleet data.
  • Collaborate closely with vehicle design, manufacturing, reliability, and operations teams.
  • Build scalable analytics pipelines and predictive models for a next-generation EV platform.
