About the position

At VORTO, we are building software that enables businesses to be more economically and environmentally sustainable by digitally transforming the supply chain. As an AI Engineer at VORTO, you will define the frontier of logistics optimization, supply prediction, and demand prediction. This position is highly entrepreneurial in nature, requiring candidates who can develop a full picture of the business problem to ship end-to-end solutions. The role is roughly 80% software engineering and 20% data science, allowing you to work closely with a strong software engineering team dedicated to disrupting the status quo. In this role, you will be solving problems using mechanistic, bottom-up thinking and statistical, top-down approaches. You will develop novel mechanisms to optimize the supply chain and improve the intelligence behind our logistics simulations and market optimization algorithms. Additionally, you will implement and ship models to predict the demand for commodities at nodes in a logistics network, the availability of supply, estimated arrival times, delays, and more. Every member of the VORTO team is laser-focused on innovating on behalf of our customers, making this a fulfilling challenge for the right candidate.

Responsibilities

• Solve problems using mechanistic, bottom-up thinking and statistical, top-down approaches.
