We deal with large amounts of diverse data within FrieslandCampina R&D. We believe that we can utilize this data to improve our innovation robustness, speed and impact. Developing new recipes is a big part of our work in R&D. Recipe development can be quite complex due to the numerous ingredients that are available, and the numerous constraints on the products that we have from a customer, consumer or a regulatory perspective. In this internship project, we would like to explore the use of algorithmic optimization techniques for recipe development. The intern will work with our internal (data) scientists to test one or multiple approaches (linear programming) for optimization, and help us in selecting the most suitable approach.
