Key Responsibilities

  • Research, design, and develop optimization models for contact center workforce planning, scheduling and resourceallocation.

  • Design and implementtheschedule optimization engine using OR-Tools/CP-SAT

  • Own the constraint model end to end: formalize business rule into a solvable, maintainable model.

  • Build the production-grade solveras a service within the WFM platform that meets latency targets forrealforecast group volumes

  • Define and validate schedule quality metrics (coverage attainment, constraint violations, solve time, solution stability across re-solves) and instrument the service so quality can be monitored in production

  • Build and execute testsand validation of optimization algorithms to deliver performance, scalability, and accuracy

  • Collaborate with architects and engineering teams to integrate optimization models into an enterprise-grade optimization engine of the workforce management platform.
