We are seeking an AI & Machine Learning expert to develop a predictive analytics solution aimed at reducing food waste in our production and supply chain processes. Leveraging cutting-edge technologies like TensorFlow and OpenAI's API, the project will focus on forecasting demand accurately and optimizing inventory management to minimize waste and improve operational efficiency.

📋Project Details

Food waste is a significant issue in the food & beverage industry, often caused by inaccurate demand forecasting and suboptimal inventory management. Our scale-up company is committed to sustainability and operational excellence, and we aim to tackle this challenge with an AI-powered predictive analytics solution. The project will involve developing a machine learning model capable of analyzing historical sales data, seasonal trends, and external factors such as weather patterns to predict future demand more accurately. By integrating Computer Vision and NLP technologies, we will also automate the monitoring of stock levels and quality assessment to ensure timely inventory turnover. The solution will be built using cutting-edge technologies such as TensorFlow for model development, YOLO for computer vision tasks, and the OpenAI API for natural language processing. This initiative will not only help us reduce food waste and environmental impact but also enhance our bottom line by optimizing supply chain efficiency.
