Sr. Data Scientist, Intelligence \u0026 Industrialization
Bellevue, Washington
Have you ever wondered how Amazon designs and builds its vast transportation and supply chain network? Do you get excited about optimizing global supply chain operations to reduce costs and enhance efficiency? If you thrive in a fast-paced environment and are eager to make a significant impact on a global scale, we want to hear from you!
We are the Intelligence & Industrialization (I&I) team within the Global Supply Chain and Transportation Procurement/ Amazon Customs & Trade (GSCTP/ ACT) organization, at the forefront of 3P transportation logistics procurement and customs & trade operations.

Examples of these decisions include configuring contractual stipulations, negotiating optimal terms with vendors, and minimizing trade penalty risks and operational delays in customs clearance.

- Conduct advanced statistical analyses to uncover causal and other relationships among business metrics and operational characteristics.
- Design and develop robust forecasting models for freight rates, customer demand, and transportation capacity across various dimensions such as geography and mode.
- Build and implement robust ML models for customer segmentation, profitability maximization, performance outlier identification, and risk prediction.
- Leverage state-of-the-art LLM models to build AI tools that reduce manual processes and increase business productivity, such as extracting key terms from vendor contracts, answering SOP and business review questions, and writing narratives and executive summaries.
- Educate non-technical business audience on complex modeling concepts, and explain modeling results, implications, and performance in an accessible manner.
- Collaborate with BIEs, DEs, and other scientists to design and implement end-to-end software solutions powered by science
- Coach junior scientists and mentor fellow data team members in data science best practices, methodologies, techniques, and trends.
