Description

Build the data backbone for AI-powered optimization.

This is a hands-on builder-lead role. You will shape the architecture, write code, make important technical decisions, and help grow the engineering capability around you. Approximately 70% of your time will be hands-on engineering and architecture , with the remaining time focused on technical leadership and mentoring.

AIMMS is building the next generation of data and AI capabilities for enterprise decision-making in areas such as supply chain and energy. We are looking for a Lead Data & Analytics Engineer to help turn this vision into production software.

Your first mission: SENSAI Data Ready

You will begin with product ownership for SENSAI Data Ready , an AI-native product that addresses one of the biggest bottlenecks in supply-chain analytics.

Preparing large, imperfect customer datasets for optimization models can take weeks of manual work. SENSAI enables supply-chain analysts to use conversational, agentic AI to inspect, join, validate, and transform multi-million-row datasets into reusable execution recipes—in minutes.

From there, your scope will grow to defining and building the shared, persistent data backbone that enables future AIMMS applications.
