Data Scientist — inventory optimisation and agentic AI

Caterpillar Morton, IllinoisSupply Chain Data Science
Salary: unknown
Caterpillar is hiring a Data Scientist to develop inventory-optimisation and simulation capabilities for parts operations while also building AI-driven solutions using LLM and agentic frameworks.
The Dataleo angle
This role reveals a convergence of classical inventory science and generative-agent tooling. The optimisation model should remain the source of constraint-aware recommendations while the agent orchestrates analysis and interaction. The failure mode is allowing an LLM workflow to substitute for tested inventory logic.
