Staff Data Scientist – Supply Chain Operations Research

We are seeking a Staff Data Scientist : Supply Chain Operations Research to join our Supply Chain Planning Science team in Bangalore. In this role, you will lead the development and productionization of advanced Operations Research solutions that power critical supply chain decisions across warehouse routing, transportation, network planning, inventory, and purchase order allocation.

As a founding science leader for the India-based Operations Research team, you will own OR workstreams end-to-end — from problem formulation and methodology selection to production deployment, experimentation, and measurable business impact. You will partner closely with Supply Chain Planning, Engineering, Logistics, Warehouse Operations, and Science teams across Bangalore and Palo Alto to translate complex operational problems into scalable optimization solutions.

Success in this role means building production-grade optimization systems that materially improve supply chain efficiency,



establishing robust scientific standards for the OR organization, and raising the technical bar through mentorship, collaboration, and AI-native approaches to Operations Research.

Responsibilities:

Operations Research & Workstream Ownership
- Own Operations Research workstreams end-to-end across areas such as dynamic warehouse routing, shipping cost optimization, multi-modal transportation, network flow, inventory planning, and PO allocation
- Translate complex supply chain and operational challenges into well-defined optimization problems and measurable objectives
- Select and apply appropriate optimization methodologies including Linear Programming (LP), Mixed-Integer Programming (MIP), Constraint Programming (CP), vehicle routing, network flow, metaheuristics, and stochastic optimization
- Develop, productionize, and continuously improve optimization models based on real-world operational feedback and measurable business outcomes
