- Translate operational data (ERP outputs, WMS logs, spreadsheet chaos) into clean inputs for AI models
- Present solution architectures and implementation plans to client stakeholders at all levels, from floor supervisors to C-suite

- Strong communicator who can explain a neural network to a warehouse manager and a ROI model to a CFO — in the same day
