Company mission
To create a world where commerce is no longer wasteful by connecting the world’s supply of inventory to its demand.
Role
Who you are
- Proven experience in a fast-paced startup environment, successfully building new systems from prototype to production
- Collaborative mindset, able to work with customers, partners, Customer Success, Product, Engineering, and Analytics teams
- Demonstrated pragmatic technical judgment in selecting machine learning algorithms and adapting them to solve real world problems. (Bonus: a focus on time series problems or demand forecasting)
- Ability to start small and incrementally extend the data science platform while improving scalability and performance
- Proven commitment to operational excellence, ensuring the smooth operation of an always-on, always-shipping SAAS product
- 4+ years of experience as a Data Scientist
- At least two mainstream machine learning libraries or frameworks like PyTorch, Tensorflow, scikit-learn, and XGBoost
- Handling data of all shapes and sizes. A dataset’s size or format doesn’t stop you from being able to build quick POC’s or robust pipelines
- Scaling and monitoring complex machine learning pipelines that involve dozens of models and millions of business-critical predictions each week
- Experience in optimizing data models and access patterns for modern warehouse and orchestration platforms such as Snowflake, Redshift, Databricks, Spark, DBT, Apache Airflow, and Prefect
- Proficiency in Python, Pandas, and working with columnar formats like parquet
- Significant mathematics background including statistics and probability
What the job involves
- Lead the development of forecasting algorithms that power decision-making systems moving millions of dollars of inventory around the world
- Collaborate on a predominantly greenfield project, leveraging your expertise to drive innovation and deliver value
- Partner with product managers, other data scientists, and engineers to identify new opportunities for incorporating 1st-party customer behavior signals and 2nd-party data to further enhance forecast accuracy
- Contribute to a fast-growing startup, where your ideas and contributions will have a direct and meaningful impact
- Be part of a dynamic and diverse team that values collaboration, creativity, and pushing the boundaries of what's possible
- Play a pivotal role in building intuitive and predictive software that will redefine decision-making processes in the industry
Our take
In a world with deep supply chain disruptions, true omni-channel networks, and sustainability-minded consumers, there is a real need for next-generation inventory systems. Yet, close to three-quarters of supply-chain functions rely on the simplest method (spreadsheets with human oversight).
This is what Syrup is setting out to change, and their product is potentially a massive improvement on current inventory management practices. The company's AI-powered predictive software provides inventory excellence at each step in the value chain, empowering merchandising and planning teams with allocation, ordering, and planning recommendations.
The early stage company has attracted impressive funding and this will be invested in expanding the product and growing its team.
