Builds internal ML tools and surrogate models that speed up engineering simulations for The ePlane Company's electric flying-taxi program. Day to day: auditing simulation data, running training/validation pipelines, chaining multi-domain surrogate models, and deploying PyTorch/TensorFlow-based ML tools to engineering teams.
The ePlane Company is at the forefront of India's urban air mobility revolution. Incubated at IIT Madras, we are a deep-tech startup dedicated to designing and building the world's most compact electric flying taxi. Our mission is to make door-to-door flying a reality, drastically reducing commute times and decongesting our cities for a cleaner, greener future. We're a passionate team of engineers, designers, and visionaries working on cutting-edge technology, and we're looking for brilliant minds to help us take flight.
This role builds Machine Learning tools to enable reduction of the engineering workforce’s burden by developing internal ML-based tools across the organisation. This person will develop, research, and deploy ML algorithms across different engineering disciplines with focus towards engineering simulation related tools and building surrogate model libraries.
Conduct systematic data audits of existing simulation data including schema assessment, volume, cleanliness, and gaps; define supplementary data generation requirements
Build and maintain data pipelines for model training, validation, and continuous retraining
Build multi-domain model pipelines that chain individual surrogate models without manual handoff
Develop training pipelines, architecture, and prototyping for ML algorithms
Work on productising research prototypes
Conduct experiments to benchmark new techniques and evaluate model behavior
Develop systematic evaluation methodology: test sets, accuracy metrics, citation quality scoring, false positive/negative analysis
Deploy AI tools to engineering teams with structured pilots, baseline measurement, and documented adoption outcomes
3+ years ML engineering with a focus on deep learning for scientific or engineering applications
Experience training regression/emulation models on physics or simulation data (surrogate modelling or reduced order modelling)
Strong ML stack: PyTorch or TensorFlow, Pandas, NumPy, SciPy
Surrogate modeling via Neural Networks or Gaussian Processes for use as fast-running model proxies.
Proven understanding of fundamental data structures and the ability to apply them to solve complex problems.
Development experience with retrieval pipeline skills and relational databases
Understanding and deployment of Reinforcement Learning based tools
Understanding of mathematics, particularly linear algebra and probability theory
