Position Summary

The Artificial Intelligence Revenue Analyst will lead the design, development, and deployment of an AI-powered revenue opportunity detection system for Avis Budget Group. This role sits at the intersection of revenue management, data science, and product development — translating pricing and availability logic into automated, rules-based alerting that identifies lost revenue opportunities across markets, vehicle classes, and booking channels. The analyst will own the end-to-end lifecycle of the tool: from defining business rules, to building and testing the interface, to driving adoption with the broader revenue management team. This position is based at our New Jersey office and follows a [hybrid/on-site] work model. The interview process will include an in-person interview at our New Jersey office.

REVENUE STRATEGY & AI ENABLEMENT

- Translate revenue management expertise into structured rules and logic that identify pricing, availability, demand, and supply opportunities.
- Partner with Data Science and Technology teams to develop AI-enabled alerting, anomaly detection, and prioritization capabilities.

PRODUCT & DATA INTEGRATION

- Lead the design, testing, and enhancement of revenue management tools and workflows that enable teams to identify and act on opportunities.
- Partner with IT, Data Engineering, and cross-functional teams to ensure data quality, integration, and reliable insights across pricing, availability, reservations, competitive intelligence, and financial performance.

REVENUE OPTIMIZATION & PERFORMANCE

- Identify and prioritize revenue opportunities based on business and financial impact.
- Measure results and continuously refine detection logic, rules, and workflows based on performance, user feedback, and evolving business needs.

STAKEHOLDER LEADERSHIP & ADOPTION

- Serve as the bridge between Revenue Management and technical teams, ensuring business needs are translated into effective technology solutions.
- Drive adoption through training, documentation, change management, and ongoing user engagement.
- Partner with leadership to shape the product roadmap and advance a more proactive, data-driven approach to revenue management.

QUALIFICATIONS

Experience

- Minimum 3 years of experience in revenue management, pricing, finance, or financial/process engineering (travel, transportation, hospitality, or similar dynamic-pricing industry preferred)
- Demonstrated experience optimizing for measurable, incremental revenue outcomes across cross-functional teams or data sets
- Experience working with or supporting the build of analytical tools, dashboards, or business rule engines (formal software development experience not required, but comfort partnering closely with technical teams is essential)
- Experience successfully driving adoption of analytical solutions (ideally AI-driven) in a complex matrix organization

Skills & Competencies

- Strong understanding of revenue management fundamentals: pricing strategy, availability/inventory management, demand forecasting, and yield optimization
- Analytical mindset with the ability to translate business logic into structured rules and testable requirements
- Proficiency with data analysis tools (SQL, Excel, and/or BI platforms such as Tableau or Power BI); exposure to Python or similar scripting languages a plus
- Familiarity with AI/ML concepts (anomaly detection, alerting logic, rules-based automation) — prior hands-on ML experience not required, but curiosity and fluency in the space is important
- Excellent communication skills, with the ability to bridge technical and business audiences
- Strong project management instincts: comfortable owning a roadmap, coordinating stakeholders, and driving a product from concept to adoption
- User-centered mindset — genuinely curious about how end users work and motivated to build tools people actually want to use
- Customer-centric orientation – build solutions that deliver rate products our customers want to purchase using processes that our people will embrace and adapt easily

What Success Looks Like in This Role

- A functioning, adopted exception-alerting system that revenue managers rely on daily
- A documented, evolving revenue rules library that reflects current business priorities
- Measurable incremental revenue captured through resolved pricing/availability exceptions
- High user satisfaction and adoption rates across the revenue management team
- A tight feedback loop between the tool's outputs and continuous rule refinement
