Job Description

Position Overview

Shape the Future of Aviation! Concepts Beyond is seeking a Aviation Safety and Regulatory Analyst to bridge the gap between complex aviation data and actionable safety intelligence. This is a high-impact opportunity to apply Data Science, Machine Learning, and Natural Language Processing (NLP) to enterprise aviation safety data repositories, ensuring the continued safety and efficiency of global flight operations.

We are seeking an Aviation Analyst to serve as a primary facilitator between complex safety data and high-level policy decision-making. You will develop predictive models, identify emerging safety trends, and support the evolution of proactive safety management systems. This role focuses on the "human-in-the-loop" aspects of aviation safety: leading industry-wide working groups, interpreting regulatory standards, and transforming data-driven insights into national safety policy. At Concepts Beyond, we have a culture of going “beyond”—bringing innovative, practical solutions to complex aviation challenges and delivering measurable value to our customers.

Essential Functions

  • Predictive Safety Modeling: Develop and refine advanced analytic models, AI/Machine Learning (ML) algorithms, and Natural Language Processing (NLP) routines to detect causal factors and emerging risk patterns within the National Airspace System (NAS) before they result in accidents or conflicts.
  • NAS Performance Metrics: Establish methodologies to measure system-wide safety performance, evaluating risk exposure and calculating Safety Performance Indicators (SPIs) to drive data-informed decision-making for national system initiatives.
  • Data Integration & Fusion: Define data structures and management approaches to collect and integrate disparate sources, including ASIAS , FOQA , ASPM , weather, radar, voice, and voluntary safety narratives.
  • Safety Risk Governance: Lead and facilitate Commercial Aviation Safety Teams (CAST) and Safety Risk Management (SRM) panels to validate identified risks and architect effective mitigation strategies.
  • Regulatory Alignment: Ensure all analytical frameworks and data-sharing protocols strictly adhere to FAA Order 8000.369 (SMS) and maintain the legal protections required for voluntarily provided safety information.
  • Strategic Policy & Standards: Translate complex technical findings into policy recommendations and assist in the refinement of aviation safety standards, ensuring that data-driven mitigations remain feasible within regulatory frameworks.
  • Business Intelligence: Create and optimize data analysis routines, dashboards, and automated safety risk metrics to improve the extraction of intelligence from incident and accident reports.

Required Qualifications

  • Education: Bachelor’s degree in Aviation Management, Safety Science, Engineering, or a related technical field.
  • Professional Experience: 8–10 years of aviation industry experience, with a minimum of 7 years specifically dedicated to proactive safety programs and data analysis.
  • Aviation Certification: Must hold a valid FAA-recognized certification (e.g., Commercial Pilot, ATP, ATC, A&P, Aviation Safety ).
  • Regulatory & SMS Expertise: In-depth knowledge of 14 CFR (Parts 121, 135, etc.) and the "Four Pillars" of the FAA’s SMS framework.
  • Systems Proficiency: Demonstrated experience compiling and analyzing safety data from FAA systems such as ASIAS, ASQP, ATSAP, ASAP, FOQA, ASPM, and TFMS .
  • Leadership & Facilitation: Proven ability to lead multi-disciplinary workgroups, drive consensus among industry stakeholders, and navigate complex industry-government partnerships (e.g., USAST ).

Desired Skills

  • Taxonomy Standards: Direct experience applying CAST/ICAO Common Taxonomy Team (CICTT) and ICAO ADREP standards to standardize safety event reporting.
  • Safety Enhancements: Familiarity with the development lifecycle of Safety Enhancements (SE) and the governance of voluntary reporting programs.
  • Professional Certification: Possession of a formal SMS-specific credential (e.g., ACE-SMS , TSI Aviation Safety Professional , or equivalent).
  • Global Engagement: Experience contributing to international safety forums or working groups that influence global aviation safety standards.
  • Advanced Safety Principles: Deep theoretical and practical understanding of Safety Management Systems (SMS) and Safety Risk Management (SRM) beyond basic compliance.
