Physical AI for industrial operations. One knowledge graph of your assets, processes, people, and locations, with agents that return the plan rather than the alert.

About the role

We’re looking for an experienced Data Scientist to join our Supply Chain AI team in India. In this role, you’ll design, fine-tune, and deploy optimized Small Language Models (SLMs) that power production-grade AI features across logistics, planning, inventory, and demand forecasting.

What they're looking for

  • Strong understanding of supply chain data and workflows (logistics, inventory, procurement, ERP systems)
  • Familiarity with Knowledge Graphs and graph-based data modeling, including designing and querying Neo4j graphs for relationship-driven insights
  • Solid hands-on skills in Python , PyTorch/TensorFlow , GraphQL, and vector databases
  • 8+ years of experience in forecasting, optimization, supply chain analytics, or AI-driven products
  • Experience designing Retrieval-Augmented Generation pipelines using document chunking, metadata filtering, hybrid (dense + sparse) retrieval, and SLM/LLM grounding for enterprise knowledge search
  • Hands-on experience building and tuning FAISS-based vector indexes (IVF, HNSW, PQ) for large-scale semantic similarity search with low-latency production deployment
