• Train & Tune AI Models: Collaborate on AI/ML model configuration and support performance tuning using Python or other tools.
• Collaborate with Sales: Support Account Managers and Client Partners in the sales cycle, from early discovery to proposal.
• Guide Innovation: Share customer feedback and insights with Product and R&D to inform ongoing development.
• Enable Success: Work closely with Services teams to ensure smooth handover from sales to delivery.
• Drive Visibility: Support marketing campaigns, events, and webinars to build Blue Yonder’s presence in the market.

What You Bring

• 3+ years in a Solution Advisory, PreSales, or Consulting role (ideally in manufacturing, supply chain tech, or planning software).
• Strong understanding of Manufacturing Planning processes and industry dynamics.
• Experience configuring enterprise solutions and building demos or prototypes.
• Basic to intermediate Python skills to support AI/ML configuration and workflow automation.
• Excellent communication and presentation skills—able to connect with technical and business stakeholders.
• Ability to thrive in a fast-paced, cross-functional, and customer-facing environment.
• A collaborative, proactive mindset with strong problem-solving instincts.
• Willingness to travel across EMEA when required.
• Fluency in English (other European languages are a plus).

Why You’ll Love Working Here

• Shape the future of AI and automation in supply chain planning.
• Work with top-tier global clients across manufacturing industries.
• Be part of a diverse, collaborative team that values growth, ownership, and innovation.
• Make an environmental and business impact—help reduce waste and drive smarter decisions.
