AI/ML Scientist

In this role as an AI/ML Scientist on the Global Data and Analytics (GDA) team, you will support the development of strategic, visibility-driven recommendation systems that serve both internal stakeholders and external customers. This initiative aims to deliver actionable insights that enhance supply chain execution, support strategic decision-making, and enable innovative service offerings.
You should be able to design, develop, and implement machine learning models, conduct deep data analysis, and support decision-making with data-driven insights. Responsibilities include building and validating predictive models, supporting experiment design, and integrating advanced techniques like transformers, GANs, and reinforcement learning into scalable production systems. The role requires solving complex problems using NLP, deep learning, optimization, and computer vision. You should be comfortable working independently, writing reliable code with automated tests, and contributing to debugging and refinement. You ll also document your methods and results clearly and collaborate with cross-functional teams to deliver high-impact AI/ML solutions that align with business objectives and user needs.
