About the role

Where you put a product in a warehouse determines how fast you can pick it. High-velocity items should be at eye level near the packing station. Heavy items should be on lower shelves. Products frequently ordered together should be in adjacent slots. Getting slotting right reduces pick times by 30% — which translates to millions in labor savings for warehouses processing 50,000 orders per day. Our slotting optimizer uses order history, product dimensions, pick frequency patterns, and seasonal demand forecasts to recommend optimal product placement. You'll build the analysis pipeline: computing pick frequency statistics, identifying co-pick patterns, modeling the impact of placement changes on pick path efficiency, and producing reslotting recommendations that warehouse managers can execute during low-traffic shifts. The warehouse intelligence team is five people. You'll work with an operations consultant who validates recommendations against real-world constraints that the data doesn't capture — like which aisles can handle forklift traffic and which shelves can support heavy items.

Fully remote.
