Description:
- Interest and experience in Operations Research, and more specifically in discrete optimization, in fields such as Mixed-Integer Programming, Local Search and Constraint Programming.
- Experience with optimization solvers along with their implementation.
- Experience in Machine Learning and Deep Learning, not limited to the use of off-the-shelf solution, with the eagerness of developing your own models.
- Proven ability to code in a scripting language (Python/R…) for prototyping and a programming language (C/C++/Java…) for close to bare-metal performance.
- Interest in high coding standards: Git, CI/CD, unit testing, test-driven development
Have you ever wished to build high standard Operations Research and Machine Learning algorithms to optimize one of the most complex logistics network?
