Role purpose
This role focuses on complex business processes and operations within Seed Research & Development. This role will identify inefficiencies and harmonize workflows across global sites in Trialing and nursery. This role will define and implement global KPI s for cost cycle time throughput and quality enabling benchmarking across geographies. This role supports short-term efficiency gains and long-term innovation scalability. The role drives operational efficiency and effectiveness by developing implementing and maintaining algorithmic solutions based on Operations Research / Mathematical Optimization techniques.
Accountabilities
- Build and implement optimization models multi-objective and robust optimization techniques.
- Design and create user-friendly GUIs (Graphical user interface) reports and data visualizations to facilitate the execution of data-driven optimization models and scenario comparisons by the end-user.
- Identify relevant business KPIs and metrics that drive optimization objectives.
- Run simulations to validate optimization models.
- Manage projects focused on the development and implementation of optimization solutions to support strategic decisions and day-to-day operations.
- Collaborate with various departments and communicate effectively with line-of-business end-users to review current operational systems and business procedures within seeds development discover pain points and identify mathematical optimization use-cases.
- Prepare management reports that clearly define and analyze issues and recommend solutions to help management make informed decisions.
