Job Description
The role involves designing and deploying advanced machine learning models to optimize and transform Samsara's global supply chain, including demand forecasting, inventory management, and supply risk modeling, working collaboratively across teams to drive data-driven operational improvements.
Key Responsibilities
- Design, develop, and deploy machine learning and statistical models for supply chain optimization
- Build predictive models for demand forecasting, inventory management, and supply risk assessment
- Create data pipelines and ETL processes using large-scale ERP, IoT, and third-party datasets
- Implement production-grade ML systems supporting batch and real-time inference with MLOps best practices
- Collaborate with cross-functional teams to align data requirements, integration, and deployment strategies
- Enhance data infrastructure and analytics platforms for real-time model training, monitoring, and inference
- Mentor junior data scientists and contribute to scientific strategy, experimentation frameworks, and modeling standards
- Identify data, tools, and process gaps and lead initiatives to address them
- Establish governance, documentation, and quality controls for model lifecycle management
- Partner with operations teams to promote AI adoption, define workflows, and train staff on insights-driven decision-making
Requirements
- 8 years of experience in applied data science or machine learning, ideally in supply chain, operations research, logistics, or manufacturing.
- Master's or PhD in Computer Science, Statistics, Data Science, Electrical Engineering, Operations Research, or a related technical field.
- Expertise in statistical modeling or machine learning, including time series forecasting, optimization, and anomaly detection.
- Strong coding skills in Python and fluency in SQL, with experience developing and deploying production machine learning systems.
- Familiarity with MLOps practices, including automated testing, CI/CD, model versioning, and monitoring.
- Demonstrated track record building real-time inference pipelines and managing GPU/TPU resources.
- Familiarity with data visualization tools such as Tableau or Power BI and cloud platforms such as AWS, GCP, or Azure.
- Deep statistical expertise, including designing and validating experiments such as A/B tests, multi-armed bandits, and applying Bayesian methods for uncertainty quantification.
- Proven experience in building advanced forecasting models (e.g., Prophet, LSTMs, Transformer-based models) for intermittent demand and seasonal patterns.
- Skilled in profiling machine learning workloads and reducing cloud GPU spend through model compression, quantization, pruning, and serverless architectures.
- Ability to deploy low-latency inference across multiple geographic regions with fail-over and disaster-recovery strategies.
- Experience evaluating and integrating third-party ML platforms and contributing to or leveraging open-source projects.
