Job Descripion :

We are looking for an
Operations Research Analyst (1–3 years experience)
to join our product and engineering team. This role is designed for candidates from premier institutes (IITs or equivalent) who have studied
Operations Research
and have hands-on exposure to working in or with software companies. You will help us
translate complex business processes into intelligent ERP workflows
, ensuring that optimization, forecasting, and efficiency are baked into our product architecture.

  1. Why Operations Research Matters in ERP

ERP software is more than record-keeping — it is the
decision backbone of enterprises
. Operations Research (OR) methods bring mathematical rigor and optimization to this backbone.

  • Optimization models
    power decisions in inventory, workforce planning, routing, and scheduling.
  • Stochastic models
    help ERP systems manage uncertainty in demand, lead times, and costs.
  • Simulation and "what-if" analysis
    enable clients to evaluate scenarios before taking action.
  • Forecasting & analytics
    ensure ERP systems predict, not just record.

By embedding OR principles into ERP systems, we don't just digitize processes — we
deliver smarter, faster, and more resilient enterprises
.

  1. Key Responsibilities

  2. Analyze client business processes (Payroll, Aviation, HRP, Supply Chain) and translate them into
    software actions and algorithms
    .

  3. Design and apply OR techniques (linear/integer programming, simulation, forecasting, decision models) within ERP modules.
  4. Apply OR techniques (linear/integer programming, stochastic modelling, forecasting, simulation) to enhance ERP capabilities.
  5. Code optimization logic directly into Ramco's in-memory platform (Minnal) to deliver real-time decision support.
  6. Build and test scalable code for scheduling, planning, forecasting, and anomaly detection.
  7. Partner with product managers and engineers to
    build optimization engines
    that improve efficiency and reduce costs for clients.
  8. Develop
    what-if scenarios, predictive dashboards, and simulation-based insights
    to embed intelligence into ERP workflows.
  9. Act as a bridge between
    business logic and technical implementation
    , ensuring solutions are both mathematically robust and business relevant.
  10. Support ongoing research into
    next-gen ERP capabilities
    (AI/ML-enabled optimization, in-memory computing, anomaly detection).

  11. Ideal Profile

  12. Education:
    B.Tech / M.Tech from IITs (or equivalent premier institutes). Coursework in
    Operations Research / Industrial Engineering / Quantitative Techniques
    is a must.

  13. Experience:
    1–3 years in a
    software product company, IT consulting, or analytics environment
    .
  14. Strong foundation in
    optimization, simulation, forecasting, and data-driven decision-making
    .
  15. Familiarity with
    SQL, Python, R, or optimization tools
    (CPLEX, Gurobi, LINGO, or open-source solvers) is an advantage.
  16. Ability to connect
    business processes with software workflows
    , simplifying complex problems for real-world impact.
  17. Strong communication skills — able to explain technical models to non-technical stakeholders.

  18. What We Offer

  19. A platform to
    apply OR in live ERP environments
    — where your models move from classroom to boardroom.

  20. Exposure to
    global enterprise clients
    across multiple industries (aviation, payroll, HR, supply chain).
  21. Collaborative work with cross-functional teams — product, engineering, delivery.
  22. Growth opportunities in a company where
    research meets execution
    .
