Lead Optimization AI Scientist

Pigment; France; Sur place; EUR 90 000 - 130 000; Plein temps

Résumé du poste

Pigment is hiring an Optimisation AI Scientist to own the technical delivery of our solver pilot programme and build a production-grade optimisation capability. You will move clients from descriptive planning to prescriptive, solver-driven decisions, with a mix of customer-facing work.

You will formulate robust mathematical models for supply chains, configure and run models for pilots, and collaborate with engineers to scale to production.

Qualifications

• Demonstrable experience formulating and solving optimisation problems for real-world operational use cases.
• Proficiency in Python with hands-on experience in a major solver library (Gurobi, OR-Tools, CPLEX, HiGHS, or equivalent).
• Experience with supply chain/operations data — SKUs, BOMs, capacity constraints, service levels, lead times, inventory targets etc.
• Understanding of core OR techniques: branch-and-bound, LP relaxation, constraint programming, sensitivity analysis.
• Degree in Operations Research, Applied Mathematics, Industrial Engineering, CS, or related field (MS/PhD advantageous).

Responsabilités

• Formulate supply chain optimisation problems as rigorous mathematical models - objective functions, costs, penalties, and constraints.
• Configure and run optimisation models for customer pilots and implementation, and support Solutions Architects in delivering results and debriefs.
• Build and run Python models against third-party solvers across multiple dataset scales, and benchmark results across use cases.
• Work with Engineering and Data Science leads to define the path to production-grade solver integration and customer specific implementations within Pigment's architecture.
• Engage technically with solver vendor teams during partnership evaluation.
