Parcel sortation and delivery strategies have objectives that can often compete with one another. Most notably, ideal on-road and in-station processes may be incompatible; moreover, optimizing for the “happy path” leads to operational realities that are not resilient to failure (which are common during peak delivery times). In this role, you will build software to create globally optimal plans amidst these opposing forces. Last Mile Planning touches sortation, containerization, and dispatch. You will work at the intersection of these to build a plan that is efficient, fair, and executable. You will learn about large scale complex planning workflows, performance optimization, multi and competing objective algorithms, and building tools for operators to be successful each and every day around the globe. You will work with research scientists, senior engineers and product managers in a fast paced and growing environment, where ideas are prototyped, tested, and implementedKey job responsibilities
