Skills
Data Science, optimization modeling and operations research
We at Coforge are looking for Data Scientist in London, UK.
We are looking for a true Data Scientist with strong optimization expertise to lead advanced analytical and optimization initiatives. The role will focus heavily on building, deploying, and scaling optimization models, which is a hard requirement from the Business Analytics (BA) team, given the nature of work planned for London.
Key Responsibilities
- Lead the design and development of optimization models (linear, non-linear, mixed-integer, stochastic, heuristic-based).
- Translate complex business problems into mathematical and optimization frameworks.
- Work closely with Business Analytics, Product, and Engineering teams to drive decision-making.
- Develop end-to-end data science solutions: data exploration, feature engineering, modeling, validation, and deployment.
- Guide and review work of junior data scientists and analysts.
- Communicate model outcomes and trade-offs clearly to senior stakeholders.
- Ensure scalability, performance, and robustness of models in production.
Mandatory Skills (Hard Requirements)
- Strong hands‑on experience in Optimization models (must-have):
- Constraint Optimization
- Network / Scheduling / Resource Optimization
- Proven experience applying optimization in real business scenarios, not just academic projects.
- Advanced proficiency in Python (Pyomo, PuLP, OR-Tools, Gurobi, CPLEX, or similar).
- Strong foundations in statistics, mathematics, and algorithms.
- Experience working with large datasets and complex problem constraints.
Good-to-Have Skills
- Exposure to simulation techniques and scenario modeling.
- Experience in industries like aviation, logistics, supply chain, pricing, operations research, or large‑scale planning.
- Cloud experience (AWS / Azure / GCP) for model deployment.
- Experience leading teams or acting as a technical mentor.
Education Qualification
Mandatory
- Master’s degree or PhD in Data Science, Operations Research, Mathematics, Statistics, Computer Science, Engineering, or related field.
- Strong academic grounding in optimization / operations research preferred.
Experience Expectations
- 10–12+ years in advanced analytics / data science roles.
- At least 4–6 years of hands‑on optimization modeling experience.
- Demonstrated ability to lead solution design, not just execute tasks.
