Job Description

Are you ready to lead the future of data-driven mobility? We are looking for a visionary, hands-on Intelligence & Optimization Lead who turns our rich fleet data into AI-powered decisions and ensures that non-data-driven choices become a thing of the past.

Optimize Fleet Intelligence:

Lead the automated fleet optimization and intelligence stream, ensuring our global multi-hundred-thousand vehicle fleet is utilized optimally across demand and revenue forecasts, cost, contractual constraints, and operational limitations

Build Applied AI Solutions:

Design, validate, and iterate optimization models and AI-based decision systems

Ensure Statistical Rigor:

Act as a functional leader who challenges assumptions and secures statistical relevance in all data- and AI-driven approaches

Elevate Coding Excellence:

Support colleagues with your Python expertise when low-code or AI-assisted “vibe-coded” solutions (e.g. via tools like Cursor) run into technical limitations, and help harden prototypes into robust production-ready code
