Requirements

• 5-8 years of hands-on experience in data science, with a strong track record of delivering production-grade solutions in business environments.
• Deep expertise in traditional machine learning techniques, including time series forecasting (e.g., ARIMA, SARIMA), regression models, and other statistical methods applied to real-world datasets.
• Proven experience designing and implementing optimization models (e.g., linear programming, mixed-integer programming, heuristics) to solve complex business problems such as demand planning, inventory optimization, or resource allocation.
• Recent, demonstrable experience working on Generative AI initiatives, including LLM-based solutions and agentic workflows (e.g., autonomous agents, multi-step reasoning pipelines, tool-augmented AI systems).
