Job Description

Your mission

  • To Proof our Concept, you calculate potential and possible cost savings, based on supplied datasets from the client.
  • Regardless of the complexity of the business case, you manage to summarize it into a clear approach and concrete actions.
  • Through functional analysis of the customer's planning process and associated data, you get a clear picture of the situation As-Is.
  • You analyze and transform the data set into compatible data input for OptiFlow after which you apply specific algorithms to it to create the best possible To-Be situation.
  • To measure is to know. Therefore, frequently going into dialogue with the customer about your findings and advice is crucial. This step-by-step approach is the only way to achieve a supported planning solution that is able to realize the customer’s true potential.
  • With your insights into the business and in-depth knowledge of our software features, you guide your customer flawlessly through the implementation process.
  • You accurately detect anomalies so that they can be resolved in no time.
  • Through workshops and training you enthusiastically share your knowledge with end users so that they too embrace and fully utilize the new planning tool.

Your profile

  • You have a strong analytical mind, which is confirmed by your trajectory of education(s) and/or previous experience.
  • You think creatively in solutions tailored to the customer, without losing sight of the technical capabilities of the software.
  • You are communicative, but above all a good listener, which allows you to perfectly define the customer's needs.
  • You have basic knowledge of any programming language.
  • Bringing order to large and complex data sets? No biggie, Python and Excel are your best
  • friends. If Pandas doesn't sound strange to you either, that's extra useful (but not necessary
  • though).
  • As for language skills, you can both speak and write fluently in Dutch and English.
  • PTV Logistics - Conundra's ambitions: continuous growth, questioning yourself & never settling for less, are right up your alley.
Who are you not?
  • You prefer to hit the road as a salesperson.
  • You prefer not to take on too much responsibility and prefer to work in the comfort of a
  • team.
  • You are not at all comfortable talking to customers and end users.
  • General project follow-up suits you better than analysis of data sets.

Why us?

Are you eager to have a positive real world impact? Do you love tackling complex problems and
modeling datasets to feed state of the art algorithms? Moreover, do you enjoy interacting with
