Job Summary
The team - who are we:
We are an ambitious team with the shared passion to use data data science (DS) machine learning (ML)advanced simulation optimization and engineering excellence to make a difference for our customers.
We are a team not a collection of individuals. We value our diverse backgrounds our different personalities andstrengths & weaknesses. We value trust and passionate debates. We challenge each other and hold each otheraccountable. We uphold a caring feedback culture to help each other grow professionally and personally.
We are now seeking a new team member who is excited about developing advanced simulation modelsoptimization algorithms and AI/ML solutions that create operational insights for container shipping terminalsworldwide helping them optimize container handling yard operations vessel operations and drive efficiencyand business value.
We Offer - This Is What You Get
You will be part of the APM Terminals team within Global data and analytics (GDA) responsible fordeveloping and delivering advanced simulation models optimizations and AI/ML models for container shippingterminals. As an AI/ML Scientist you will have a leading role in designing building maintaining anditerating on products that directly impact terminal operations.
This position offers a unique opportunity to develop and apply your deep knowledge of simulationoptimization data science methods software engineering and modern AI development tools to createoperational and strategic insights that are transforming container terminal operations globally.
This is an exciting time to join a growing and dynamic team that solves some of the toughest problems interminal operations and builds the future of container shipping. We offer a unique opportunity to impact globaltrade via world-leading container terminals. We focus on our people and the right candidate will have broadpossibilities to further develop competencies in an environment characterized by change and continuousprogress.
Key Responsibilities
Design implement and deliver advanced simulation models and optimization solutions for terminal operations including container handling equipment efficiency yard positioning strategies vessel loading/unloading sequencing and truck routing.
Develop and maintain efficient applied engineering solutions that solve real-world operational challenges at container terminals globally.
Build both operational tools for day-to-day terminal operations and strategic models for long-term planning and decision-making.
Work with relevant stakeholders to understand terminal operational dynamics and business processes incorporating their needs into products to enhance value delivery.
Collaborate and communicate model rationale results and insights with product teams leadership and business stakeholders to roll out solutions to production environments.
Analyse data measure delivered value and continuously evaluate and improve models to increase effectiveness and operational impact.
To do this job we imagine you have:
