• Development experience within Cloud technologies like Microsoft Azure or Google Cloud platform
• Familiarity with analyzing large-scale structured and unstructured data using Scala and Python and experience with Big Data technologies like Spark and Kafka
• Ability to context-switch to provide support to dispersed teams to unblock especially challenging technical obstacles, and to work through problems as they are still being defined

Minimum Qualifications:

• Bachelor's Degree in Information Systems, Computer Science, or a quantitative discipline such as Mathematics or Engineering and/or equivalent formal training or work experience.
• Seven (7) years equivalent work experience in measurement and analysis, quantitative business problem solving, simulation development and/or predictive analytics.
• Extensive knowledge in data engineering and machine learning frameworks including design, development and implementation of highly complex systems and data pipelines. Extensive knowledge in Information Systems including design, development and implementation of large batch or online transaction-based systems.
• Strong understanding of the transportation industry, competitors, and evolving technologies. Experience providing leadership in a general planning or consulting setting.
