60 Dice Data Scientist Jobs Hiring Near You

Job Summary:
Kaiser Aluminum is known around the world for its superior quality, and they are seeking a Manufacturing Data Visualization Engineer to join their Advanced Engineering team. The role focuses on improving operational performance by creating clear visualizations of manufacturing data for various stakeholders, enabling data-driven decision-making and enhancing overall efficiency.
Responsibilities:
• Design, develop, and maintain standard dashboards that clearly communicate equipment status, process conditions, production progress, quality indicators, and constraints in a near real-time format
• Translate plant operating needs into intuitive visual elements (e.g., status states, trends, thresholds, alerts, control limits, and "at-a-glance" health indicators)
• Partners with operations leaders and subject matter experts to define standard visualization patterns (e.g., common layouts, naming, color conventions, alarm prioritization, and KPI definitions) to drive consistent interpretation across manufacturing lines and shifts
• Implement visual management tools for daily management routines (shift handoff, tier meetings, performance boards, escalation cues, action tracking)
• Build and support standardized reporting and visualization for KPIs such as OEE components, throughput, downtime categorization, yield/scrap, rework, cycle time, schedule attainment, and other plant-defined metrics
• Collaborate on visualization design such that existing best practices are reused
• Develop reusable visualization components and templates so new areas/lines can be enabled quickly with minimal custom development
• Develop and maintain data access utilities and curated interfaces (e.g., standardized queries, semantic layers, pre-defined extracts, governed KPI definitions) that allow users to retrieve the right information without needing deep technical skills
• Collaborate with data engineering / OT / IT resources to ensure visualization tools are built on trusted, governed data sources while minimizing duplication or manual workarounds
• Provide documentation, training, and user guidance to support adoption and sustained use of visualization tools
• Ensure dashboards and visualization tools are reliable, performant, and maintainable (version control, change management, release notes)
• Maintain alignment with cybersecurity, access control, and data governance requirements
• Strong working knowledge of data structures and querying (e.g., SQL, time-series concepts), with the ability to work effectively with historians and operational datasets
• Ability to translate ambiguous user needs into clear visualization requirements, then deliver usable tools in iterative releases
Qualifications:
Required:
• Bachelor's degree in Software Engineering, Computer Science, Industrial Engineering, or related discipline; or equivalent experience
• Five years' visualization development experience, preferably in manufacturing or industrial settings
• Minimum three to five (3-5) years of experience working with process engineers/business analysts to translate functional requirements into technical requirements and making architectural decisions
• Competent with T-SQL and database theory and structures
• Basic knowledge in networking and client-server transactions
• Broad contemporary understanding of information technologies and trends
• Demonstrated experience with MBSE and documentation, sysML or like
• Strong communications skills with ability to clearly articulate, collaborate and substantiate recommendations with team and illustrate and propose design concepts prior to software construction
• Ability to produce high quality, well documented, thoroughly tested, and efficient applications and reports
• Ability to work incrementally and comfortable with collaboration and peer review
• Use Software Development Lifecycle (SDLC) to incrementally evolve a system in phases
• Proven ability to manage concurrent development tasks
• Excellent problem solving, investigative, experimental, and statistical analysis skills
• Strong working knowledge of data structures and querying (e.g., SQL, time-series concepts), with the ability to work effectively with historians and operational datasets
• Ability to translate ambiguous user needs into clear visualization requirements, then deliver usable tools in iterative releases
Preferred:
• Manufacturing experience is a plus.
• Exposure to Digital Twins a plus.
