Job Description

DESCRIPTION


Are you interested in applying your strong quantitative analysis and data science skills to world-changing problems? Are you interested in driving the development of methods, models and systems for capacity planning, fraud detection, LLM capabilities to transportation and fulfillment network? If so, then this is the job for you.

Our team is responsible for creating core analytics, science capabilities, platforms development and data engineering. We develop scalable analytics applications and research modeling to optimize operation processes.. You will work with professional software development managers, data engineers, data scientists, applied scientists, business intelligence engineers and product managers using rigorous quantitative approaches to ensure high quality data tech products for our customers around the world, including India, Australia, Brazil, Mexico, Singapore and Middle East.

Amazon is growing rapidly and because we are driven by faster delivery to customers, a more efficient supply chain network, and lower cost of operations, our main focus is in the development of strategic models and automation tools fed by our massive amounts of available data. You will be responsible for building these models/tools that improve the economics of Amazon\'s worldwide fulfillment networks in emerging countries as Amazon increases the speed and decreases the cost to deliver products to customers. You will identify and evaluate opportunities to reduce variable costs by improving fulfillment center processes, transportation operations and scheduling, and the execution to operational plans. You will also improve the efficiency of capital investment by helping the fulfillment centers to improve storage utilization and the effective use of automation. Finally, you will help create the metrics to quantify improvements to the fulfillment costs (e.g., transportation and labor costs) resulting from the application of these optimization models and tools.

Major responsibilities include:

\xc2\xb7 Translating business questions and concerns into specific analytical questions that can be answered with available data using BI tools; produce the required data when it is not available.
\xc2\xb7 Apply Statistical and Machine Learning methods to specific business problems and data.
\xc2\xb7 Create global standard metrics across regions and perform benchmark analysis.
\xc2\xb7 Ensure data quality throughout all stages of acquisition and processing, including such areas as data sourcing/collection, ground truth generation, normalization, transformation, cross-lingual alignment/mapping, etc.
\xc2\xb7 Communicate proposals and results in a clear manner backed by data and coupled with actionable conclusions to drive business decisions.
\xc2\xb7 Collaborate with colleagues from multidisciplinary science, engineering and business backgrounds.
\xc2\xb7 Develop efficient data querying and modeling infrastructure.
\xc2\xb7 Manage your own process. Prioritize and execute on high impact projects, triage external requests, and ensure to deliver projects in time.
\xc2\xb7 Utilizing code (Python, R, Scala, etc.) for analyzing data and building statistical models.
