Job Description

About Us

Senior

Key Responsibilities

  • Design and implement

    advanced forecasting models

    (statistical, ML, DL) for

    large-scale datasets

    , including multi-SKU, multi-location, and multi-horizon forecasting.
  • Work on

    complex supply chain datasets

    , including demand planning, inventory movement, lead times, seasonality, promotions, and external drivers.
  • Build and maintain

    feedback-loop mechanisms

    with planners (model overrides, adjustments, bias monitoring) to ensure adaptive, continuously learning forecasting systems.
  • Develop scalable

    data processing pipelines

    using Python and Spark/distributed frameworks to manage millions of records efficiently.
  • Build NLP components (classification, extraction, embeddings) for analytics use cases where required.
  • Contribute to building and integrating LLM-powered tools (prompting, retrieval, light agent workflows) for automation.
  • Deploy and monitor solutions on Azure or AWS, ensuring reproducibility, version control, and observability of model performance.
  • Collaborate with Power BI experts to integrate model outputs into reports and dashboards for planners and business stakeholders.
  • Contribute to internal accelerators and reusable frameworks for forecasting, MLOps, and cloud-based analytics.
  • Communicate analytical findings clearly with cross-functional teams — including operations, consulting, and leadership.

Required Skills

  • Forecasting:

    ARIMA, ETS, Prophet, ML-based forecasting, hierarchical forecasting, causal models
  • Proven experience handling

    large-scale time series datasets

    (multi-SKU, multi-region, millions of rows).
  • Experience building

    adaptive/continuous learning forecasting systems

    , including planner overrides, backtesting, auto-retraining, and KPIs (MAE/MAPE/Bias).
  • Distributed Computing:

    Spark (PySpark preferred) or equivalent frameworks for scaling pipelines.
  • Programming:

    Python (pandas, numpy, scikit-learn, PyTorch/TensorFlow), SQL
  • NLP (Foundational):

    embeddings, transformers, basic extraction/classification (deep expertise not required)
  • LLM Tools:

    Basic prompt engineering and retrieval-based systems (nice-to-have)
  • Deployment:

    Docker, FastAPI/Streamlit, MLflow (preferred)
  • Cloud:

    Azure or AWS experience (model deployment, storage, CI/CD)
  • Strong analytical mindset with the ability to translate real supply chain/business problems into ML solutions
  • Comfort working in a lean, fast-paced, high-ownership consulting environment

Good to Have

  • Experience with Power BI or other visualization tools
  • Exposure to Ops Research / Optimization problems
  • MLOps experience: monitoring, model drift detection, automated retraining
  • Prior consulting experience or strong client-facing communication skills

Why Join Us

  • Opportunity to work on diverse forecasting, analytics, and GenAI automation projects
  • Small, high-talent team where your work directly impacts client outcomes
  • Hands-on exposure to enterprise-grade forecasting systems and LLM-powered tools
  • Ownership, learning, and accelerated career growth in a collaborative, non-hierarchical setup
