Data Integration & Pipeline Development: Identify, aggregate, and ingest internal supply chain metrics (lead times, supplier performance, inventory levels) alongside external market data (geopolitical risks, weather events, commodity price trends, trade tariffs).

AI/ML Model Development: Design, train, and validate predictive algorithms (e.g., risk scoring, time-series forecasting, anomaly detection) to flag potential supply bottlenecks and vendor risks.

Tool & Interface Creation: Build a functional prototype/dashboard or integrate model outputs into an actionable tool for supply chain planners.

Market Research & Feature Engineering: Analyze macro-market trends to engineer features that improve model accuracy and early-warning alerts.

Documentation & Communication: Present model logic, accuracy benchmarks, and actionable insights to key stakeholders and operations teams.

Additional Qualified Skills:

• Power BI, or Tableau for user interface creation.
• Python or R, Scikit-learn, TensorFlow or PyTorch, Pandas, NumPy
