Functional Description:

Across PepsiCo, we continue to build new capabilities that will be critical to achieving long-term, sustainable growth. The operating environment in which we do business is undergoing immense change, and it's imperative that we transform in ways that enable us to meet the future needs of our customers and consumers. Digital technology is one such force of change, and the way we interact with retailers, shoppers and consumers is evolving at a dramatic pace. The impact of Digital / eCommerce has fundamentally evolved and in some cases transformed almost every consumer segment with groceries / consumables being the next space that external experts and large players (e.g., Amazon, Walmart) are betting on. As a result, e-commerce is one of the fastest-growing areas within the consumer products industry and represents a significant opportunity to accelerate growth for PepsiCo going forward.

To ensure we win in this space we have established a dedicated eCommerce group, bringing together world class talent across F&B, digital, and key customers. While tied closely to broader PepsiCo, the eCommerce group has a unique start-up feel and defined values that embrace a more entrepreneurial mindset: bias for action; results oriented; community-focused; prioritization of people.

In order to maintain the necessary pace to meet the growth targets and compete effectively against start-ups or technology competitors requires a step-change in our thinking and traditional approaches to data science. Accordingly, this role will play a critical effort in shaping and executing the global eCommerce growth agenda through leveraging subject matter expertise in machine learning modeling and analysis.

* Opportunities to propose new/incremental tasks to suit business use cases

* Quick release cycle and managing the technical aspect of multiple projects simultaneously as they develop

* Meet with non-data science business stakeholders to set expectations and design products based on business needs

Minimum Qualifications:

* Master's degree completed no later than August 2019

* Minimum 1-3 years' experience/familiarity with SQL and Python (Tensorflow experience preferred)

* Experience developing deep learning systems (software release experience preferred)

* Understanding of deep reinforcement learning systems

* Experience in market data science modeling and analysis. eCommerce / Digital space experience preferred
