Research Scientist, Demand Forecasting

Meta runs one of the largest server fleets on earth, and every product bet (AI training, ranking, inference, storage) turns into a demand for compute that we must forecast, shape, and match to a physical supply of servers, racks, power, and data center space. As a technical owner within Server Demand Planning, you drive server demand forecasting and demand-supply matching for your area and close on feasible supply

requirements:

you forecast near- and long-term server capacity demand by rack/hardware type and region, and you build the operations research models that match that demand to supply so we land the right long-term DC & hardware infra requirements, in the right place, at the right time. You choose the right modeling approach for the problems you own, deciding when to ship a production-grade optimization system versus a fast lightweight model to unblock a decision, and you partner closely across product/service capacity owners, capacity engineering, supply chain, data center planning, and finance.
