About the team
Demand Science Optimization (DSO) builds products that automate data-driven decision-making for demand planning across build, allocation, and consumer sales. This includes determining optimal pricing to maximize CP (or minimize promo spend), maximize in-stock rates while meeting consumer demand, as well as gauging consumer willingness to pay for subscription and physical products. We build cutting-edge machine learning, OR, and modeling systems to achieve these goals.
