About the role
Are you ready to design intelligent solutions that transform Supply Chain decision-making? At Accenture, we are reinventing organizations through technology, data, and artificial intelligence-helping clients unlock new sources of value and measurable impact for their businesses and society.
We are looking for a Data Scientist to join our global team. This role focuses on developing advanced analytics and AI models that leverage curated Supply Chain data products (e.g., Active Inventory, Demand, Shipments, Purchase Orders) to generate predictive insights and optimization capabilities.
You will play a key role in translating complex business problems into data-driven solutions-designing models that improve forecasting accuracy, optimize inventory levels, enhance service performance, and drive operational efficiency.
From exploratory data analysis to model deployment and monitoring, you will contribute across the full AI lifecycle-problem framing, feature engineering, model development, validation, deployment, and performance tracking.
As part of our team, you will work on cutting-edge initiatives that integrate Machine Learning, optimization techniques, and AI-driven decision support systems-ensuring solutions are scalable, explainable, and aligned with enterprise data strategies.
While the role is deeply analytical and technical, you will also collaborate with data engineers, architects, and business stakeholders to ensure that analytical models translate into measurable business impact.
What you'll do
- Traducir los desafíos de negocio de la cadena de suministro en problemas de ciencia de datos y marcos analíticos.
- Desarrollar modelos predictivos y prescriptivos (por ejemplo, pronóstico de demanda, optimización de inventario, predicción de nivel de servicio, análisis de tiempo de entrega).
- Realizar análisis exploratorio de datos e ingeniería de características utilizando productos de datos seleccionados.
- Diseñar, entrenar, validar y optimizar modelos de aprendizaje automático.
- Aplicar técnicas estadísticas y metodologías de experimentación para validar el impacto.
- Colaborar con ingenieros de datos para garantizar la disponibilidad, calidad y preparación de los datos.
- Apoyar el despliegue y monitoreo de modelos en entornos de nube.
- Garantizar la explicabilidad, robustez y gobernanza de las soluciones de IA.
- Cuantificar el impacto en el negocio mediante la definición de KPIs y la medición del desempeño.
- Comunicar los hallazgos y resultados de los modelos a audiencias tanto técnicas como no técnicas.
How you'll work
The position is based in Barcelona or Madrid and follows a hybrid work model, with some days working from home and others in the office, where you can create interesting synergies with the rest of your team. It is essential to reside in Spain and have a work permit in Spain.
