- At least 5 years of relevant professional experience in the field of mathematical optimization, ideally in a consulting environment or data-driven industry projects.
- Proven experience in the development and application of complex optimization models – linear, integer, nonlinear, or heuristic.
- Strong analytical thinking and the ability to quickly structure complex problems, abstract them purposefully, and transform them into robust, calculable models.
- Experience in working with interdisciplinary teams and direct customer contact – ideally with your own result accountability.
- Initial team lead experience.
- Excellent communication skills in German and English.
We Offer
- Opportunity to work in a dynamic and innovative environment.
