About The Job

This role is a core contributor within the Commercial Analytics organization, supporting enterprise-level decision making across pricing, equipment lifecycle performance, customer behavior, and commercial strategy.

• Develop, deploy, and maintain statistical, machine learning, and AI-enabled models to solve business problems across pricing, lifecycle performance, customer behavior, operations, and commercial strategy.
• Leverage generative AI and agent-based approaches to accelerate insight generation, pattern detection, and analytical workflows.
• Communicate complex analytical findings clearly through dashboards, visualizations, and executive level presentations using tools such as Power Bi or similar platforms.
• Collaborate with analytics, data engineering, and business teams to continuously improve analytical systems, models, and processes.
