Joseph Beaver is a Senior Data Scientist at Rolls‑Royce with nine years of experience applying physics-led analytics across reactor and marine engineering. Trained in nuclear reactor physics (MSc, University of Birmingham) and physics with philosophy (MPhys, University of York), he blends rigorous scientific modelling with pragmatic engineering methods to drive design and operational decisions. A long-standing member of the Reactor Physics Design Team, he serves as a business-wide Python consultant and Plant Familiarisation Physics coordinator, translating domain expertise into reusable tools and workflows. His background as a physicist and methods engineer gives him rare depth in both first‑principles simulation and data-driven optimisation. Colleagues rely on him to bridge research, manufacturing and operations while keeping a hands-on focus on reproducible code and practical impact.
