- Build executive-ready materials (briefs, summaries, simple visuals/tables) that make complex information easy to act on.
- Maintain documentation of assumptions, methods, and decision rationale to support repeatability and transparency.
- 3 years of experience in analytics, finance, operations, supply chain, or strategy roles.

- Ability to structure ambiguous problems, define assumptions, and communicate findings clearly.
- Strong written communication skills with attention to clarity and audience.
- Bachelor’s degree in a quantitative field (e.g., business, economics, engineering, analytics, mathematics) or equivalent experience.
- 1 or more years of experience with supply chain network concepts (distribution, transportation, omnichannel fulfillment) and interpreting optimization/modeling outputs.
