Job Responsibilities Build and maintain mathematical optimization models — objective functions, constraints, and penalty calibration

Encode and validate business rules, contract parameters, and operational constraints into model inputs

Execute regression testing and model health checks before and after every production run

Conduct scenario and sensitivity analysis with documented trade-offs and business recommendations

Validate all input files pre-run — NULL checks, format errors, anomalies, and data readiness sign-off

Monitor data pipeline health, audit logs, and ingestion failures across recurring run cycles

Perform data quality assessments — missingness, outliers, duplicate records, and consistency checks

Validate model outputs and savings calculations — ensuring mathematical accuracy and business defensibility

Review compliance and performance tracking — compare actuals vs recommendations and document deviations

Review output files for anomalies and formatting issues before stakeholder delivery

Support recurring run preparation — scenario setup, input file review, and run orchestration

Triage platform issues — classify severity, gather diagnostics, and escalate with clear context





Monitor cloud pipeline health — ingestion, compute, and delivery layer checks
