About this role

Maintainx is hiring for a Senior Applied Scientist, Parts Intelligence & Inventory Optimization role (full-time). See the official posting for full details.

Requirements

  • 5+ years of professional software engineering or data science experience, with significant time spent on optimization, forecasting, or ML systems shipped to real users.
  • Strong fluency with at least one optimization paradigm (LP/MILP, stochastic programming, simulation) and practical experience with demand forecasting or inventory management models.
  • Solid Python service engineering: APIs, async, testing, profiling, observability. You can own a production service end-to-end.
  • Academic grounding in Operations Research, Industrial Engineering, Supply Chain, Statistics, or a related quantitative field; strong undergraduate foundation at minimum.
  • Track record of iterating data-driven systems with real users — you've felt what happens when a model recommendation gets rejected and you've redesigned the approach in response.
  • Product mindset and delivery orientation: you ship, you measure, you iterate. You care about the operator outcome, not just the metric.
  • Comfort with ambiguity. You can co-design the data model and feature schema with the team rather than waiting for a clean spec.
  • Familiarity with GenAI tooling (LLM tool calling, structured output, prompt design for constrained generation) is expected.
