Our client is an innovative technology company developing advanced AI‑powered solutions for enterprise and industrial environments. The organization focuses on leveraging artificial intelligence to optimize complex engineering, manufacturing, and supply chain processes through intelligent software platforms and data‑driven decision‑making.

The role supports two strategic AI initiatives aimed at transforming engineering and supply chain operations. The first program focuses on accelerating systems engineering life cycles through NLP, Large Language Models, and automated compliance checking of complex technical and regulatory documentation. The second program is dedicated to predictive supply chain intelligence, including demand forecasting, spend analytics, supplier risk assessment, and anomaly detection. The technical environment includes enterprise ERP systems, engineering data models, Data Lakehouse infrastructure, and large‑scale AI platforms integrated through RESTful services.
