Senior Value Engineer -Consumer Goods

Role Description

• As an Senior Value Engineer specializing in CPG and Fleet Logistics you are pushing the envelope in solving business-critical problems for some of the world's most recognized consumer brands and global mobility networks. You will be working intimately with our most strategic enterprise clients understanding their uniquely complex objectives—spanning from high-velocity beverage manufacturing and Direct Store Delivery (DSD) optimization to massive-scale fleet lifecycle management and dynamic asset routing. You will build Celonis solutions using the world’s leading Process Intelligence (PI) platform in combination with top AI and ML technology partners (e.g. Microsoft OpenAI Databricks).

  With Celonis’ Process Intelligence (PI) platform we feed operational context to AI so it understands the intricate realities of our customers' massive supply chains vehicle fleets and distribution networks. This enables them to industrialize AI unlocking real ROI on deployments at scale—ensuring products are always on the shelf and vehicles are always ready for the customer. There is no AI without PI. You will prototype these solutions demonstrate their value to global Chief Supply Chain Officers (CSCOs) and Fleet Operations Executives and ensure successful implementation adoption and value realization to solidify and expand the footprint of Celonis across these premier global networks.

Key Responsibilities:

• AI Discovery & Solutioning: Understand the clients' overarching AI strategies and the distinct supply chain challenges inherent to high-volume CPG and fleet mobility (e.g. predictive demand forecasting route optimization fleet predictive maintenance dynamic asset allocation and mitigating raw material volatility). As a Celonis product and logistics domain expert translate these complex physical-world challenges into innovative AI solutions that drive measurable impact.

• Pre- and Post-Sales Execution: Actively drive the full customer lifecycle. Lead technical discovery and capability demonstrations during the expansion/pre-sales cycle within various manufacturing distribution and fleet management business units. Remain deeply involved post-sale to guide implementation ensuring agreed value efficiency and adoption thresholds are successfully reached.

• Hackathons & Prototyping: Think out of the box with a "can-do" attitude tackling heavily siloed legacy logistics and telematics networks. Leverage cutting-edge AI technologies to rapidly build creative prototypes in client hackathons solving critical pain points across inventory allocation fleet routing and DSD execution.

• Agentic Process Transformation: Support these enterprise clients in achieving tangible ROI from AI at scale. Enable a fundamental shift from traditional rule-based automation to autonomous AI agents empowered by the Celonis Process Intelligence Platform (e.g. autonomous fleet rebalancing intelligent shipment exception handling or automated trade promotion deductions).

• Proof Projects: End-to-end execution of business-critical Proof-of-Value projects. Architect and deliver secure scalable LLM/agent systems with RAG tools and guardrails ensuring seamless integration with complex enterprise ERPs (e.g. SAP) Transportation Management Systems (TMS) Warehouse Management Systems (WMS) and massive IoT/telematics data streams.

• Domain & Industry Leadership: Serve as the internal and external technical subject matter expert for CPG and Mobility Supply Chains scaling knowledge across the organization regarding the nuances of fast-moving consumer goods and asset-heavy fleet operations.

Requirements:

• 5+ years of experience leading technical pre-sales and post-sales engagements specifically within highly complex Supply Chain CPG/Beverage or Fleet Logistics environments. This includes defining AI roadmaps building compelling ROI/TCO business cases for large-scale distribution networks and guiding technical implementations through to value realization.

• Deep understanding of supply chain business processes native to high-volume manufacturing and mobility (such as Direct Store Delivery (DSD) Order-to-Cash Procure-to-Pay Fleet Lifecycle Management or Sales & Operations Planning) with the ability to translate high-level operational needs into specific AI use cases.

• Expertise in generative AI techniques like RAG few-shot learning prompt engineering multi-agent orchestration multimodal understanding or fine-tuning used to build high-impact use cases (e.g. intelligent dispatch assistants or automated extraction of data from complex vendor contracts and logistics documentation).

• Solid knowledge of Python and common ML libraries (such as LangChain pandas pydantic sklearn PyTorch) as well as data engineering tools and technologies for handling massive high-velocity transactional and IoT datasets.

• Strong presentation skills to both internal and external stakeholders (including supply chain executives logistics directors and enterprise IT leaders) whether leading technical whiteboarding sessions or formal readouts and demos.

• Bachelor’s Degree required; Master's Degree in computer science supply chain management logistics engineering mathematics or related fields or equivalent work experience preferred.

Nice to have (big plus):

• Hands-on experience building agentic systems using LLM orchestration RAG function calling and prompt engineering while ensuring safety through rigorous evaluations suited for enterprise-grade supply chain environments.

• Familiarity with CPG and fleet-specific systems (e.g. SAP APO/IBP Blue Yonder Manhattan or major telematics/fleet tracking platforms).

• Working knowledge of tools in the LLM ecosystem such as LangChain LlamaIndex or other OSS packages.

• Experience in deploying and monitoring models at scale across major cloud platforms (AWS Bedrock Azure AI GCP Vertex).
