Senior Data Analyst, International Supply Chain Engineering (ISC Tech)

Location: Boston, MA or Austin, TX   Who We Are:   Wayfair believes everyone should live in a home they love. Through technology and innovation, we make it possible for shoppers to quickly and easily find exactly what they want from a selection of more than 14 million items across home furnishings, décor, home improvement, housewares and more. Partnering with Product, Experience Design, Analytics and business members across Wayfair, our Engineering teams ensure that we’re building technology that solves important customer problems in elegant, scalable, measurable ways.   
The International Supply Chain (ISC) team is responsible for the planning, movement, and tracking of goods from foreign factories to domestic warehouses. ISC’s job starts once a supplier is ready to place an order from one of their factories and it doesn’t end until those goods are delivered to a fulfillment center. Through deep integrations into the supply chain, automation, and exception handling we are able to provide world-class service and visibility to our suppliers. Our efforts allow them to focus on their core business while we worry about all the complexities involved in getting their goods imported. We aim to perfect and scale our offerings cost-effectively through technology. Are you interested in building technology for the real world where anything can happen (container shortages, record high ocean rates, 1800+ containers fall into the ocean in bad weather, etc.)? You never know what will happen next!
