Data Scientist at Aera Technology focusing on optimization and operations research to enhance decision-making. Working with business data to formulate and solve complex optimization problems.
Responsibilities
Work with real-world business data to formulate optimization problems in areas such as supply chain, inventory, production planning, and pricing.
Design, implement, test, and refine linear, integer, and mixed-integer programming models, along with heuristic or meta-heuristic approaches where needed.
Prototype and compare alternative formulations and solution strategies, balancing optimality, robustness, and runtime performance.
Use commercial and open-source solvers (e.g., Gurobi, CPLEX, COIN-OR) effectively, including model diagnostics, tuning, and performance analysis.
Collaborate with solution delivery and data engineering teams to integrate optimization models into end‑to‑end decision workflows.
Engage with customers and internal stakeholders to understand requirements, explain model behavior and trade-offs, and iterate on designs.
Requirements
Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Operations Research, Applied Mathematics, Industrial Engineering, Computer Science, or a related quantitative field.
1-3 of experience in optimization / OR, including internships, academic projects, or industry experience; outstanding fresh graduates are encouraged to apply.
Strong foundations in linear algebra, probability, optimization theory, and algorithms, with clear intuition for LP/MIP modeling.
Hands-on experience formulating and solving optimization models using at least one solver (Gurobi, CPLEX, COIN-OR, etc.) and one programming language (preferably Python).
Demonstrated passion for OR: coursework, theses, competitions, or open-source contributions.
Ability to reason from first principles, question assumptions, and propose alternative formulations when the first approach does not work.
Comfortable working in a fast-paced environment, taking ownership, and learning new problem domains quickly.
