Develop and analyze business, manufacturing, and logistics data and scenarios to solve complex problems in manufacturing operations and hardware logistics and delivery
Develop and apply stochastic models to simulate complex manufacturing systems, including production capacity, throughput, and material flow
Analyze simulation results to identify bottlenecks, optimize production, and improve overall system performance
Contribute to end to end supply chain processes (as part of Meta’s overall capacity delivery plan), methodologies, and data to deliver an executable and optimized supply plan
Manage and resolve critical escalations and exceptions in all areas of the supply chain
Build mathematical models to perform simulation and optimization studies of manufacturing flow & capacity considering material inputs, supply partners, and logistics
Work cross-functionally to define problem statements, collect data, build analytical models and make recommendations to drive change and optimization at the most strategic levels
