Job Description
As a Senior Data Scientist you will be part of an expert team of scientists and engineers responsible for developing and operating algorithmic decision components that optimize order fulfillment in all of Zalandos warehouses. Your focus will be on understanding intra-logistic processes and predicting their duration and throughput to improve both warehouse operations planning and execution as well as delivery promise accuracy for customers.
In this role you will face two significant challenges:
Build productionize and maintain accurate prediction models. This requires a deep understanding of warehouse operations from picking and packing to sorting and dispatching. Youll need to gain this operational knowledge and translate it into accurate and reliable predictions.
Warehouses generate vast quantities of data. Your challenge will be to distill this data into actionable insights that allow data-driven / algorithmic decision-making.
If you are passionate about leveraging data science to solve real-world problems and enjoy deriving insights from complex datasets we want to hear from you. This position offers the opportunity to create innovative data-driven solutions and drive the success of our logistics operations.
