Supply Chain & Planning Expert
What you’ll do
Mercor is partnering with leading AI labs to advance frontier agent evaluations in supply chain. As a Supply Chain & Planning Expert, you’ll build long-horizon supply chain tasks that mirror the work you already do, each paired with a deterministic rubric that grades agent performance against verifiable ground truth. Tasks need to have checkable answers; no open-ended essays, no subjective judgment calls.
Expect to build scenarios across:
- Planning: forecasts with a ground-truth MAPE against historicals, MRP runs with defined expected outputs, inventory analyses with target safety stock
- S&OP: capacity analyses with known feasibility outcomes, scenario plans with computable demand-supply reconciliation
- Execution: supplier scorecards with calculated totals, logistics exception handling against defined SLAs
These scenarios will be challenging and take long sessions of focus.
Who we’re looking for
- BS in Supply Chain, Industrial Engineering, Operations, or related; 3+ years in supply chain planning, S&OP, or logistics
- Expertise in one or more of the following: a planning system (SAP, Oracle, Kinaxis, Blue Yonder, o9), demand forecasting, inventory theory, S&OP operations
- Comfortable reading and producing supply chain artifacts: forecasts, S&OP decks, supplier scorecards, exception playbooks
- Clear written communication; can articulate reasoning step by step and encode it into deterministic rubrics
- APICS CPIM / CSCP a plus
