You will be based in our Houston or Denver office as part of McKinsey’s manufacturing AI solution (OptimusAI), which sits at the intersection of three practices.
Global Energy and Materials: advises production and investor companies across chemicals & agriculture, paper & packaging, metals & mining, oil & gas, and power generation on strategic, operational, and growth issues.
QuantumBlack, AI by McKinsey: the AI arm of our firm which helps clients transform faster, innovate smart, and anticipate the future.
Operations: assists our clients in solving complex operational challenges by developing and implementing operational strategies, initiatives and solutions for their most critical problems; connecting boardroom strategies to the shopfloor operators.
At the intersection of these groups, OptimusAI is a team of ~10 expert consultants, data scientists and engineers, focused on improving processing plant productivity through data analytics.
We develop real-time AI advisory systems to support decision making in the plant control room, we assess and optimize process control systems, and we unlock plant bottlenecks through data-driven process changes.
OptimusAI supports a global community of consultants by developing an innovative machine learning toolkit and codifying the approach to deliver significant and lasting client impact.
