In this role, you will partner with our operations teams to develop and implement forecasting solutions that optimize logistics planning across Google Cloud's supply chain. You will build and enhance models that improve our ability to predict key operational needs, from warehouse capacity to transportation and labor. Your focus will be on driving forecast accuracy, improving the transparency of our forecasting methods, and integrating operational constraints into our planning processes, while also contributing to the longer terms strategy of our logsitics network. You'll ensure our warehouse network scales effectively, adapts to the evolving needs of the business, and delivers speed, efficiency, and predictability across our global operations.
