reliable science-driven solutions that are beyond the published state of art in order to run frequently (ranging from every few minutes to every few hours per use case) and continuously in our large scale network. Key job responsibilities As an Data Scientist, you will work with other scientists, software engineers, product managers
operations leaders to develop scientific solutions and analytics using a variety of tools and observe direct impact to process efficiency and associate experience in the fulfillment network. Key responsibilities include: - Design and conduct rigorous experimental design for production pilots to evaluate the impact of the solution and improve model performance - Lead the end-to-end lifecycle of forecasting models, from research and experimentation through production launch including defining success metrics, obtaining stakeholder sign-off
managing rollout - Develop and deploy production grade ML and statistical models using Python, Scala, SQL
related tools - Perform large-scale exploratory data analysis to uncover patterns, identify opportunities
inform model development - Translate complex science findings into clear insights and recommendations for technical and non-technical stakeholders at all levels - Contribute to Amazon's scientific community and the broader research field through collaboration and presentation in top-tier venues About the team Amazon Fulfillment Technology (AFT) designs, develops and operates the end-to-end fulfillment technology solutions for all Amazon Fulfillment Centers (FC).
