They are seeking motivated graduate engineers to join their E-commerce Global Supply Chain and Logistics team to apply machine learning and data analysis to improve logistics operations and enhance the shopping experience.
Responsibilities:
• Responsible for the development of deep learning and operations research models and related intelligent systems for the supply chain and logistics of the global E-Commerce business.
• Utilize e-commerce big data and deep learning models to predict end-to-end estimated time of arrival (ETA), and some logistics events such as failed delivery, delivered but not received to enhance the user logistics experience. Build logistics network knowledge graphs and predict the spatio-temporal trajectory sequence of express packages through deep learning, statistical inference and other algorithmic methods. Use NLP and LLM algorithms to handle address problems such as address verification and address suggestion.
• Utilize time series forecasting techniques to predict sales at different granularities and horizons, such as warehouse-level manpower forecasting, inventory-level demand forecasting etc. We need strong machine learning and deep learning skills to detect important factors and model the relationship between the future and history.
• Participate in the growth of e-commerce merchants/creators, responsible for the growth algorithm of e-commerce merchants/creators, including potential merchants/creators mining algorithm, tiering algorithm, out-reach algorithm, growth algorithm, etc. Work closely with e-commerce merchants/creators related operations and product teams to achieve the high-quality growth goal of e-commerce merchants/creators.
• Combined with massive e-commerce information, through data mining and machine learning, predict the performance of products in traffic/conversion, improve the efficiency of product operation strategy and pricing/subsidy strategy, and assist in optimizing traffic distribution, to satisfy the requirements of product growth, cost optimization and some other scenarios.
Qualifications:
Required:
