About the role
The Opportunity
As an Operations Research Analyst, you will use advanced optimization modeling techniques to build and deploy prescriptive tools to help drive critical business decisions. You will:
- Model and document operations processes to better understand how to approach improving them
- Work alongside Engineering and Operations teams to better understand issues and communicate plans and solutions
- Develop custom optimization algorithms to solve critical operations and logistics use cases
- Develop metrics to best measure effectiveness of a solution
- Perform data analysis to understand anomalies or aberrations
- Integrate and deploy solutions into existing operations systems
The Skillset
- BS/MS/PhD in Operations Research, Industrial Engineering, Data Science, Computer Science, Mathematics, Physics, or related field, or equivalent industry experience
- 3+ years proven experience as an operations researcher or equivalent role
- Experience developing and maintaining end-to-end operations research production processes, including data modeling, algorithm development, testing, and metric tracking
- Strong experience using optimization packages such as CPLEX, Gurobi and OR-Tools
- Strong experience using programming languages such as C++, Java, and Python to implement optimization models
- Proficiency in SQL and data processing skills, with exposure/experience with dbt a strong plus
- Experience in data visualization tools (ex. Sigma, Tableau)
- Exposure to cloud infrastructure platforms and deployment patterns
- Ability to communicate with business partners and drive for solutions to complex and abstract problems
- Effectively communicate, and seek to understand and be understood
